Tanukitsune Posted December 30, 2010 (edited) I'm pretty sure I'm the only person here who has played this since this is a game that only game out in my country, Spain... Although you might have played the original game it's a remake of... The remake has the same name and... it's basically the same game, only 3D... The ridiculous part? How the online play works! I know it's only a beta, but it's still ludicrous! Here's the deal, when you install the game, you get a "credit" which you can use to "purchase" ONE level, each day you login, you get points towards a new credit... I have no idea how many, because the second ridiculous thing about the game made me stop playing... When I died the first time, I saw a message saying that "Sparta" was inviting me to the next game, I didn't really get what was going on, so I clicked... and I got an UNSKIPPABLE AD for a game called Sparta... wanna guess what happened when I died again? Yep, I got another unskippable ad for the SAME game... You would assume there would be a "Will you shut up if I give you some money?" button, but no luck... The part of me that is mildly nostalgic of the game wants to play more, but the fact I have to login daily for points and the ads make want to never click on the game again... It make we wonder how the game will work when it goes gold, I sure hope they remove the whole point system and the ads, unless they are going for some "free-mium" system... What about you? Have you seen anything worse or just as bad? EDIT: Out of curiosity, I tried the game again.. You get 2 point per login and you need 90 to unlock the next level, so... you have to wait 45 days to unlock a new level? I also found out it DOES have store, and it is kinda Farmville-ish, you can buy powerups, not upgrades.... And it seems I was unlucky the first time because I actually beat the level this time and I only died twice and got two different ads... I wouldn't mind if the store had upgrades and not powerups, and the fact that it takes so many points to unlock a new level practically forces you to buy one... So yeah, it's still pretty terrible...

twmac Posted January 3, 2011 Never seen that game. How is the new one different. Is 3-D or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tanukitsune Posted January 3, 2011 Yep, the site has plenty of gameplay footage... I might give it another chance when it's no longer in beta if they drop the points and ads and just charge you for the game... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
