Dungeon Village: Build,Kill,Earn,Recruit!



  I had been playing this game for a few months now and completely and totally forgot to write a review on it! Shame on me! But in all seriousness this game is probably one of the most addicting mobile games I've ever played! From the moment I bought this game on the google play store to now I have not stopped playing it and my village continues to grow! I'm not sure if the developers intend on adding more content to it but with what it has now it is more than entertaining! Now let me get down to the sweet details!



  You start off as a lowly mayor of an equally lowly town of whatever you decided to name it. You are then tasked with building it up and recruiting adventurers to wipe out any monsters that will appear. Simple huh? Well to add a bit of a twist to it the monsters will become more difficult as the game progresses,adventurers will level up and purchase items from your stores,the more weapons and armors your adventurers loot the more are unlocked in the armor and weapon shops. All this money goes to you so that you may build more money generating buildings or purchase weapons and armor to give to an adventurer of your choice! This means you can fully deck out a few adventurers to give them the edge to face the upcoming challenges! Also you will be able to use that money to send off adventurers and have them complete quests around your town! Whether it be exploring a dungeon,to destroying a horde of mobs! This also means you will be faced with "boss" monsters every once in a while! These are usually dragons and some of them remind me of pokemon or godzilla characters! Which makes it even more entertaining!

                                                                         (Get it?)

  Now that basically sums up the game but there is still a bit more! Your adventurers do level up as they complete quests or just kill monsters out on the field! The max level is 10 and upon reaching that level is 10 and upon reaching the cap they can change to another class. Each class having bonuses to either the amount of money generated to the amount of customers a store will receive as well as battlefield bonuses! You also unlock that class if you already haven't and some of them are a bit bizarre! One such class is the "clown" class and the "maid" class! I have no idea why they are added but I think it's cool and they do have their own reasons for being in the game...I just haven't figured out! This means that you can have an entire army of clown adventurers killing off other monsters. Clowns are safe from being eaten by monsters...because they taste funny...get it? THEY TASTE FUNNY! Ha...ha...ha...okay back to business! Each adventurer has an amount of happiness that when at a certain point allows you to build them a house so that they become permanent residents of your town! And that means more money for you! You get to collect taxes from them and they don't care! HA! They will also give you certain buildings that boost the stats of adventurers that enter them!



  Another interesting feature of this game is the event system! To give your adventurers more of an edge over the monsters you can hold these to boost their strength,dexterity,intelligence,hp,or toughness! So holding events early and buffing up your adventurers is something that will be a necessity if you intend to save money on buying healing items for the downed adventurers! You can also boost your popularity which will give you a chance of attracting more adventurers! Neat huh? So hold them melon eating contests and marathons till they are so strong they one shot everything! Just kidding...I don't think that's possible! There is also a development system where you unlock a cauldron and throw random stuff in there to boost certain elements and after a while you will unlock either a building,spell,accessory,armor,weapon,or something else that will help you expand your town!

  This game is addicting so for anyone that plans on purchasing it rest assured...you will get your moneys worth and probably get caught playing this on your phone at work more than once...like me. >.>

Nimble Quest: Snake but with a twist!


  How many of you have ever played the game snake? Remember the old school game where your goal was to collect blocks to grow longer and to avoid hitting walls and your own body? Well Nimble Quest is that...but with a twist(in case someone didn't read the title)! Instead of collecting blocks you collect heroes to grow longer! But they don't just follow you around...they each attack! What do they attack? Enemies of course! These enemies will be moving around trying to kill you and you will be moving around to attack and avoid colliding with them! Cool huh? You start off with a few heroes and as you progress in the levels unlock more! Rangers,mages,zombie warriors,and other awesome heroes make up the roster for this awesome game! To make things interesting the more heroes you unlock the more choices you have of which to make the leader! The leader is special because if that hero dies...game over! Your hero can die from taking too much damage,colliding with an enemy,colliding with walls,or colliding with other heroes! This means you can't just wander around and have to be attentive to what is going on around you! But the same applies to enemies! If you see an enemy "snake" and kill off the front enemy you kill the other two!


  The first few levels are simple...as would be expected! But as you progress you begin to meet more daunting foes! From healers to demons you will never face the same combination of enemies! But just as your enemies grow stronger so does your hero! The more you use your favorite hero the more "experience" they get! once they reach the max amount they gain a star and unlock a bonus to attack speed,movement speed,or health points! This gives you rewards for playing the game and it makes things more interesting by adding a leveling factor! Another thing that further helps you is the bonuses you can get with tokens. These tokens can be obtained through trading 1000 gems or winning them in the guild battle system. All you have to do is participate and at the end you get your tokens! You can also use the gems to upgrade the buffs you will find in the game such as the above shown ice shield! You upgrade the duration so that they are more useful than when they were just level one!






















  This game never really gets boring and is a fun time sink for when you are having a slow day at work,or when your college professor doesn't show up for thirty minutes! Whatever you want this game is fun and if you can get friends into it you can even slam em with your highscore! Thanks for reading this review and I hope it helped you out!
