Review: Battle Dawn:Galaxies

on Sunday, January 16, 2011
Turn-based strategy game on your browser, but this is one of the best qualities I have seen so far. Easy to handle but tough to master, only you can lead your alliance to victory. Filled with strategy and great simplicity, I have spent a lot of time playing this one and had tons of fun leading an alliance with my friends.

In this game, your empire is aiming at being the strongest in the world. You must forge and alliance, fight and use cunning tactics to overpower the others. In order to win, you or your alliance must collect all of the relics, which are basically moving bases that you need to capture. This game is set in space unlike it's predecessor which is on planets and different eras (Mars, Earth, Fantasy). There are 45 upgrades for building and 27 units with beam, concussive and explosive weapons. The interface is great and refreshing as well as being very well organized. Going along with the game is a dozen of ambient songs that add a lot to the feeling of supreme commanding. You can rapidly dive into the action and build a great empire with dozens of missile silos, gates, radars and remote training bases and outposts all under your command. Forging alliances with others and relocating to avoid the bigger predators is imminent to avoid being conquered by the bigger fish in the sea. You will always be able to strike back and rebel against your conquerer. You can organize with your alliance buddies and try to take over your worst enemies throwing remote missiles and armed-to-the-teeth squads.

A great game, I can only love it.

Review: Super Laser Racer

on Tuesday, January 4, 2011
Brother to Geometry Wars, Super Laser Racer is an arcade racing game developed by New Star games and is a perfect example of a simple racing idea, polished into a high-quality racing game.

It's easy to play, but it can get tough, mines and missiles are exploding across the maps while some others might just want to get the best time to go on top of the leaderboards. It has a good replay value and great graphics that look like this is a relative of Geometry wars (it is). Getting good times or dynamiting everyone are paths to victory. You can jump into a dozen of ships to choose from including some to unlock through tournaments and races.


One big element in this game is the map editor. Lacking tutorials but not too hard to use, it gives the game a much greater replayabillity value and a longer life. With lots of blocks to choose from, you might just have a lot of fun. I heard someone say once "This game is like cigarettes, it's too addicting, and you might just lose your lungs to it, that is, being stuck to your seat".
There are also some really nice achievements ranging from blowing up multiple ships as you explode yourself to winning big tournaments and doing clean races. It's a nice little coffee break game as well as a very competitive, leaderboard-based game. A few bucks, a good racing game with more purpose than just to make minutes tick by.

If you want good racing quality, light graphics, a pit stop and weapons, then play this.

Review of Altitude (PC)

on Monday, December 20, 2010
Altitude, 2 dimensional shooter produced by Nimbly Games. It's a refreshing display of what the new shooter generation is like. Only this time, it's too addicting to forget.

All nice and cute, this game turns rapidly into a monstrous deathmatch or free for all in the middle of a radioactive factory map. You get this part for $2. The aerial fighting is very arcade, but you can lose speed and stall rapidly if you don't accelerate enough in an uphill, which can be problematic if you were in the middle of a shootout while holding a bomb in the middle of enemy territory. $1 for that. Ever heard of Call of Duty? Well, the perk system is in this game too and can give every plane a special style in combat and different resistances or weaknesses. 1 more buck. Multiplayer with many servers and tons of options. How about $2 for that? You can make your own maps and even host a server very easily. $1. A bunch of game modes, a handful of planes, a bunch of different skins. $2 too much? Last of all... There's a demo, and it's indie. 1$.
Add it up, yep $10 for a really nice, indie with a great graphic style. I think you should definitely try the demo before you play the game which can be downloaded at their website: http://altitudegame.com/ <--- (Clicky) , you're welcome. If you like it, (which i'm sure you will) keep playing. If you love it, take out your credit card.


Have a nice day and... HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!1!!1!
Now, get shootin' would 'ya?

First Looks: Greed Corp (PC)

on Friday, December 17, 2010
"Once upon a time, in a land of milk and honey"

Greed corp is a Turn-Based Strategy game from W!Games with a nice artistic style and a small twist on things.

You can choose 1 of 4 factions, all with very different storylines and campaign modes. Using Walkers, cannons, carriers and a good strategy, you can lead your nation to victory. The main plot is simple, you are in a beautiful world in the skies, building civilizations on small islands. After a long time of peace, the world starts to quake, islands fall to the abyss under the clouds. You must lead your faction and control what is left of the land while preventing your own from sinking to ensure your nation's survival.
When you start the game, you are presented a map with hexagonal islands and a few walkers. You can use the walkers to control more terrain and destroy the opponent's walkers as well as capturing buildings. You can build an armory to produce more walkers. Here is the thing though, the islands you are building on, can be destroyed rapidly. The terrain has different layers of land that can be used strategically to dominate the battlefield. Harvesters can bring you great amounts of resources, to the cost of sinking your whole domain or even your opponent's. The terrains divide into different parts to a point where you need to use carriers to invade the opponent's islands to jump over the gaps. And that's when the interesting part begins. Filled with explosions and strategy, good graphics and a solid concept. It's worth the money and... it's indie!

Have a look!

Check this out! Wakfu beta

on Friday, November 26, 2010
I know I know! I'm late on my posts! I had a pretty busy week and I only got back very late so I couldn't post.
I was about to make a review for another spaceship game but I'm gonna take a different style of game this time.

So, many of you might know Dofus, an MMORPG where you take on the role of an adventurer that belongs to 1 of the 12 different classes. You explore, run around killing fantasy animals from cute to monstrous. Wakfu is the sequel. Situated 1000 years after the Dofus age, a giant ogre conquers the whole world. A massive part of the world of Dofus is submerged in water because of him. And the 12 gods have summoned you to take back the 6 Dofus eggs that can grant the owner any wish.

The gameplay is great and the graphics are amazing. This game is still in beta but you can register now and take part when it opens. There already have been tons of open betas but they were all very glitchy. They changed most of the things halfway through the making of the game but they are progressing really well on the game.

Check that out and take also a look at Dofus.
