Pros and cons of Four Tribes app for iPhone and iPad
Four Tribes app good for
Ive been checking the app store e eery few months for a populous style game - I should haw figured that Sean would come through with a greAt one!!!
昔あった某神様ゲーム・・・あれを好きだった人ならマスト。
iPhone向けに仕様&操作は簡略化されていますが、
全く違和感がありません。
Easy100、Normal100、Hard100、Very Hard100と、面数も豊富。
今Very Hardなのでこの先があるかどうか知りませんが、結構長く遊べるゲームだと思います。
This is a fun, good game with a lot of potential if the developer keeps polishing it. It has good bones but lacks sparkle.
The core mechanic of raining down horrors on your enemies and prospering your tribe works very well. The graphics are so-so but they communicate whats happening. The controls are mostly natural.
The "tutorial" levels are chaotic and undifferentiated. It would have been far better to start with colors isolated on their own islands to give new players a chance to experiment safely. The free-for-all chaos at the start of a level makes for more intense gameplay, but youd expect the "very easy" levels to hold your hand a bit more. The difference between "very easy" and "hard" is subtle, not pronounced (more active enemy AI, I think?)
One frustrating problem that bites you repeatedly is that you cant scroll beyond the level boundaries. When youre trying to flatten land on the edge of the map, frequently the bottom edge, you end up with accidental volcanoes instead, because the buttons are in the way.
It would help a lot if landscape changes could be animated somehow. Its tricky to see what youre doing, and a bit of visual feedback for shaping the ground would help.
Ive spent a few hours playing this, and will likely spend more. I hope it keeps being upgraded!
Some bad moments
Graphics and interface look fine, but gameplay requires fixing. I am particularly frustrated with the inability to direct the knights once these are created, so sometimes I end up with 3-4 knights wandering aimlessly around, while the enemy is growing in power. Another problem is when I use Fire - my units die as well as the enemy. Next, the game only lets you lower land, and raise is possible only in water - but it will be good to be able to do both, and thus hurt the enemy. And finally, having 4-5 enemies per map is way too much, we should have the choice of how many we want to fight. If these issues are corrected, I would say the game is certainly worth a buy.
This game has horrifyingly bad graphics and lacks any point whatsoever. Honestly, I want my money back. Its not fun. I just flatten the ground? THATS all I do? What?!
Not really good. Confusing at first. There are better games out there for sure.
this runs way too slowly on my 2nd gen iPod touch. please fix it.
Game crashes on title screen please fix other than that this game is great
I get smoked on level 1 (very easy!) How do you build up land so as to disturb the opponents progress? Populous was wayyyyyyyy better.
