The basis of the new game “Guardians of ember – Ember Guards” lie, two are probably the most popular things in our world: the tower defense genre, and the myth of the all-powerful artifact that was stolen. The formula is old, but successful: the first phase will make you sit for days after application, the second one will give the minimum to understand what is happening in the world. However, it would be silly to call Ember Guards another strategy for the protection of the towers – in fact, everything is much more serious.
So, the artifact – in fact, he called Ember. He gave to all involved in prosperity and joy, but then was stolen – and his quest and went Ember Guards – special order, it stores. As is often the case in fantasy games, capture the artifact is just an excuse for more ambitious and epic dust: there will be terrible monsters, and bosses, and even the Dark Lord himself, which we must overcome.
Who ever started the game the tower defense genre, the game will feel like home. Small map, rutted trails – they will go enemies. A few special points (from three or four to a couple of dozen), where you can put elements of protection: in the course are all sorts of ballista, cannons, magic missiles and other Arsenal that you will wield. As is the case in tower defense game at first, even mocking light – and closer to the end of mocking complicated. Have to think about: where to put something or other instrument, to make it as effective as possible and, consequently, resisted the attack of the opponents. To lose in Ember Guards – a trifling matter, but the more valuable the prize.
Especially in battles with the bosses – and there is already on the leaves for foreign matter the genre. In tower defense rarely seen bosses – tea, not Japanese platformer – but in Ember Guards is implemented quite well: a huge monster attacks, hidden attacks again and so on to victory.
In between (and sometimes even during) battles between the towers can be upgraded – for example, to make your gun shoot fire balls. By the way, all the resources are also going to improve: you can buy some artifact (not Ember, but too bad) and to put it into action.
Separate joy delivers a choice of the hero characters in this genre are rare, usually think of yourself with your favorite ballista. You can choose from five provided the characters – from the girl-witch to doomed shaman. Each hero has its own set of spells that you can shed on the battlefield: someone further whack to the head, slow down or weaken. So carefully take a partner in the campaign for a powerful artifact – his ability Oh, how handy.
Looks like Ember Guards decently, even cute – apparently this is a new trend in the genre. The special effects are colorful, but not annoying: pleasing to the eye, but not headache – perhaps the best combination. Generally, the local picture is nice to look at – some sverhtehnologichny it is, perhaps, the hiccup is not necessary, but fun – and that’s enough.
The most interesting thing in Ember Guards is that it can be recommended not only to fans of the genre – although they, of course, too. The game has many elements typical of tower defense in the least – and thanks to them the game is able to interest people in “the street”. So if you had a strong dislike for the games where you have to hold back the waves of enemies can try Ember Guards is not excluded that to fight the bosses and look for an ancient artifact you will like it.
