Tiny Castle Review


It should really come as no surprise, but with their latest game Tiny Castle, Nitrome has once again proven themselves to be one of the kings of original content. Tiny Castle is a challenging platformer that breaks from convention and offers up something truly unique: rather than progressing from stage to stage, you’ll stay in one gigantic room that will transform to present you with new challenges as you progress.It should really come as no surprise, but with their latest game Tiny Castle, Nitrome has once again proven themselves to be one of the kings of original content. Tiny Castle is a challenging platformer that breaks from convention and offers up something truly unique: rather than progressing from stage to stage, you’ll stay in one gigantic room that will transform to present you with new challenges as you progress.As a young knight you’re attempting to reach the castle’s maiden who is locked away in a cage dangling from the ceiling. To reach her you’ll need to navigate the one massive, ever-changing room that is Tiny Castle. You’ll climb ladders, slay creatures, and find keys to unlock doors. All the basics of the platform genre are here. Movement is controlled with the arrow keys, and your hero can attack by tapping Z. It’s simple, it’s smooth, it’s precise -- but what sets this one apart isn’t the controls, it’s the environment.As you progress through the game you’ll see the castle change over and over again as it offers up new areas to explore. The environment must change a dozen times during the course of the game. Platforms crumble, areas flood, lights go out – every manner of game changer is introduced, and every time it offers up a new set of simple objectives to tackle. In the dark? You’ll need to light all of the candles. Flooded? You’ll need to swim past dangerous fish to find safety. The changes are paced out at smart intervals and the figuring out what to do is never too complicate, so new content is never more than a few minutes away. Read full story...

Alchemia

Alchemia

For a lonely shepherd in a normal world, seeing a mechanical bird seemingly preying on your flock must be a terrifying experience. It certainly was for the hero in Alchemia, which is why he killed it. But it turns out that even mechanical birds have souls. And so the hero and the bird set out on a quest to find a new body for its soul to inhabit in the wonderful web-based adventure Alchemia.

For the most part, Alchemia plays out like any other point'n'click adventure on the market. If you're familiar with the genre in the least, there's very little in the gameplay to surprise you here. What will fill you with wonder and awe, however, is the slick presentation and tender ideas that fill the story. There's nothing wacky or off the wall in this adventure. No rubber chickens on pulleys. No maniacal purple tentacles. Alchemia values simplicity and beauty over the silliness or suspense that most adventures are built on.

Take the calendar wheel puzzle, for example. You'll set a calendar wheel in motion. As it spins, a tree in the room will go through its annual life cycle. It will grow leaves, bear fruit, lose leaves, die, and then bloom once more. Little touches like these weren't only aesthetically pleasing and humbling in concept, but they served as central elements to the puzzling. With the tree, for example, you'll need to stop the calendar when the fruit falls off to collect it for your inventory.

Social City

Social City

I don’t know about where you live, but my city is a mess. Potholes dot every major thoroughfare, water costs are twice as high as in neighboring cities, and metered parking downtown is outrageous. I’ve always said that if I were mayor I could turn this place around. And while I may not have had the chance in the real world, Social City is letting me be the mayor I’ve always dreamed of.

Just like a real city, Social City is all about maintaining a delicate balance between jobs, services, and residents. Jobs in Social City are all about manufacturing. You’ll build factories and then issue different contracts to these factories to build new items. You might tell one factory to produce fertilizer, for example, while another bottles cola. Each contract takes a different amount of time to complete and comes with a different financial reward. So while you can make more money off the cola, it’ll also take you twice as long as the fertilizer to produce.

Chisel

Chisel

Combining elements of Qix, Dig Dug and Super Mario Galaxy is no easy feat, yet that’s exactly what Nitrome’s latest game Chisel accomplishes with finesse. We take command of a drill-headed robot named Chiseller as he drills planets in half over and over again and love every minute of it.

Chisel is an action arcade puzzler that tasks players to shrink planets to a certain size. To do this, Chiseller will hop on his head and drill in a straight line from one side of the planet to another, taking out some of the mass and causing the two bisected pieces to come together. Players will do this over and over until the planet is tiny enough to progress to the next level.


Chisel


The game wouldn’t be much of a challenge if all you had to do was cut a planet in half. Thankfully in typical Nitrome-fashion a healthy combination of brilliant level design and new gameplay twists throughout manage to keep players on their toes.

Breaking Bad: The Interrogation


Interactive fiction isn’t something we cover a lot of here on Gamezebo, and there’s a good reason for that. It’s often boring, dry, and excruciating to play through. ...and then there’s Breaking Bad. Focussing on a character from the popular TV show of the same name, Breaking Bad: The Interrogation plays out like the Serpico equivalent to Choose Your Own Adventure. It’s gruff, it’s gritty, and it’s incredibly fun.

Players take up the role of DEA Agent Hank Schrader. Hank is investigating a fire in a church, and the only lead is a weasly little bookworm named Hadley Berkitz. Hadley volunteers at the church and does their bookkeeping. He may be good at math, but as far as Hank’s concerned something doesn’t add up.
