Does this game even work? I can’t even manage to play any mode…. Devs haven’t released any news from what I can see either

Junk - why is there even an option to buy this game as a gift - yeah maybe for your mother in-law but come on Devs - this game is nowhere near early access and when I saw nowhere I mean it’s like some school project. Nothing works, and when you can build a camp to generate soldiers if you meet the enemy on the steps then they stay there the entire game. What were you guys thinking when you released this, it’s 8 Euros, what’s all that about. I really really want to support smaller game companies and startup indie type initiatives - but meet us at least half-way and give us some feedback and something to work with. Really sorry Devs, but you don’t deserve my money for this piece of JUNK!

TLDR

the Managment stuff is a boring minigame to fill bars and the gameplay itself is a static rng mess ; the stats of players and developing them feels too linear and doesn’t provide enough options. No Teamfights not much active managment in game no hero comp buildings, Picks and Bans are too similar atm. Jungle feels so useless and is too much of a lottery. So even Early Access has a long way to get thumbed up and the publisher is sadly tainted with sort of abandoning other projects let’s hope for the best.

This is a “not yet” recommendation, because there’s a lot of fun to be had in this game, but right now it’s so wildly imbalanced.

But first, the good stuff:

-Fun premise

-The MOBA mini game is neat

-Character progression

-Character customization

-Ladder scaling premise is fun

-Decent variety of things to manage

As for the “needs to be fixed for this to be fun” part:

-Chemistry, as a research method, is very broken/overpowered. Potentially getting to take twice as many turns as your opponent does swings the RNG so wildly in your favor that it becomes very difficult to lose, even as a team with a rating of 59-62, I was consistently able to beat teams with ratings up to 74.

Please do not think of Ace of Spades, Minecraft, or Team Fortress coming in to this, treat it as it’s own game, because it is. All gameplay elements are well balanced, and tie together incredibly well. In the context of pure gameplay, there is little you can say against it. It is the best game I’ve ever played, and that likely won’t change for a long time, I’m certainly a candidate for being the #1 fan.

Currently the biggest problem is the playerbase. It is quite low, and slowly diminishing. I’m sure the developers will be looking at ways to pick this back up. If you’d use a USA, or UK server, you shall be okay, but otherwise I’d suggest not purchasing the game. Queues may take a little longer than other games due to the low playerbase. However, if you’re in a long queue, please do not leave, it creates a perpetuating issue that is only solved by players being patient.

First of, dont get me wrong, I love this game, I wouldnt have played it for 2000+ hours if I didnt. I made quite a lot of friends through this game in the last three years and learning to play each hero is fun.

The gameplay is one of a kind, it’s a unique mix of building and class based objective gameplay, however, there are some serious issues with this game:

Tutorials

There are none. The practice ground can give you a few pointers about movement and the tutorial video provides tips about basic game mechanics, but the base setups shown in the videos are absolutely useless. Your best bet would be to search some gameplay footage on youtube and study the defenses and tactics of some high level matches.

Well all in all it’s not a bad game. A little more difficult than I feel it should be. I mean by the time you build up a little money you need to repair the rails or your train which takes your resources up fast and hard. then you can’t produce enough to make the money. So you spend your cash on more raw materials that you use to repair but now you are out of cash. It’s quite frustrating. It’s not that it’s a bad game but they sure could loosen up the purse strings a bit. The diamonds are almost impossible to get so when you spend them up you’re screwed. And it’s not fair for as hard as it is to get them that the tutorial tries to get you to spend them. Either way like I said. Not a bad game. Just a bit rough. Could use some better bonuses to help out or something. I may play a little longer but I will probably lose intrest in banging my head against the wall.

A browser game that lacks a lot of the polish needed to make it into something amazing. Hindered by a limited interface that has obviously been designed for touch-screen control firstly and gameplay depth a very distant second. You might get a hundred hours out of it if your patient but having to fish around every city node one-by-one to check for prices, the inability to unload a train you have already loaded with cargo, inability to rotate building tiles, obnoxious tutorial and a claustrophobic UI that makes me feel like I am looking through a letterbox leave me deeply unsatisfied with this game.

Evolution Tag 2

Evolution Tag 2

Based on a popular Warcraft III mod, Evolution Tag 2 is a unique twist on the MOBA genre - incorporating elements of RTS, survival, and cat and mouse style gameplay. Evolve, survive, build bases, control armies, slay a dragon, and fight other players in an intense 10vs5 match between humans and the undead.

–————————————————————

NOTE: Servers are typically offline and are only turned on during scheduled play tests. Join the discord if interested in playing!


Each player controls one character that can continuously evolve into various types of stronger units. As an example, your character could evolve into a swordsman, then into a knight, and finally a Paladin. The undead team of 5 starts out more powerful, resulting in a cat and mouse playstyle where the team of 10 humans have to run away and try to survive. Eventually the human team can become strong enough to fight back by evolving, killing creeps to level up, building up an army if playing as the builder class, and buying powerful items/perks from the item shop.

In order to win, the Human team must destroy the Undead base near the center of the map. Meanwhile, the Undead team’s objective is to knock out each player on the human team a certain number of times.

Order Of The Gatekeepers

Order Of The Gatekeepers

I’ve been a big fan of Tower Defense games my entire life. Everything from Bloons to Defense Grid: The Awakening to StarCraft and StarCraft: Brood War UMS to Plants vs. Zombies and whatever else I’m forgetting. I’m also a huge fan of MOBA-style games as the many hours of Dota 2 on my profile would suggest.

Order of the Gatekeepers has been able to combine aspects of both genres to create a very challenging and very re-playable experience. Anybody who buys this game can dive right in and have fun, but it also has a higher-skill ceiling for those that want to play around and experiment with different tower/item combinations.

Thumbs up for active developer, but…

Disclaimer: I want to be very clear that I’m not saying the game is bad. I think it’s pretty neat, that’s why I have some hours logged- but this has truly been my subjective experience so far: there’s a severe learning curve, but no real guidance.

Hah! Now I can deal with those Invisible waves.
