BrickShooter Review
Addictive and difficult
|
You can buy it at RegNow for that price.
Very intuitive interface. Extremely addicting in the more challenging levels. A nice added depth to an otherwise crowded niche.
Instructions on how to play are incomplete. Too expensive for a block clearing game. Maybe try to bundle this with other games.
Brickshooter kept my interest. That's a hard thing to say now with all of the different types of block-clearing games out there. The concept was simple, but the 360 degree game board added another element of strategy to the mix. I did have to lower the number of colors a bit in the beginning just to clear a board, however after awhile of playing I was quite enjoying the 8, 9, and 10 color challenges.
The layout for the game was very intuitive. Everything felt like it was where it should be. I liked the fact that all of the menu buttons were integrated into the game itself. The changeable skins for the game were a nice touch, however most made the game harder to view and I found myself going back to the default setting.
The Help interface was very helpful, however incomplete. In the how to play section, it is not stated that blocks you move will continue to move after an obstruction is cleared. Not a very big deal, but after I found this out, the game had that much more depth to it.
Overall I would recommend this game to anyone who enjoys block clearing games, but has gotten tired of the same old thing. I feel with a few tweaks and a price adjustment, this game would keep afloat in a sea of blocks.
