The name of the world's most famous designer often began to flicker in game titles. Another novelty is devoted to the struggle of walking humanoid robots. Local bugs have nothing to do with autobots, nor decepticons, or even with Gandami-these were invented by Lego designers. The imputable background of the conflict does not provide for who are all these people and what is happening – you only have to guess.
The fictional metropolis of Mekuero-City acts as a battlefield. Each level is a looped arena with narrow streets, gray buildings and lampposts. Typical architecture evokes boredom and despondency. I do not want to fight for this crown of creative impotence.
And it has to be. Plastic slugs and unpretentious robots pierce from all sides. The only task facing two nameless furs is to recapture the wave of advancing. Allow only one of them to manage, the second is left to itself. Do not be surprised when he will fly into the abyss and rush to the embrasure.
The wards of robots are thrown into cobblestones, fired from crossbows and beat with electricity. But our heroes are not a timid dozen. In the built -in store – a wide range of firearms and cold weapons: from sword and maces to lasers and manual grenade launchers. Two "guns" allow you to hike. In addition, one -time bonuses constantly appear at the level: abilities, portable turrets, reinforcements in the form of five robots.
The variety ends on this. The game turns into routine very quickly. Each subsequent level differs only in the number of attacking and their aggressiveness. Even the location does not change – only twenty levels later the battle will finally begin for the new unsympathetic area of the city. But the main problem is not even that. It is not clear why in the name the word lego. The developers did not build a toy city from a children's designer and heated monolithic structures. Yes, and in robots of the Lego Deal is not visible either.
Catch The Ark
“All twelve months spent in the ark did not laugh at the Noah Age, neither himself, nor his sons, nor day or night. Because he constantly cared about the animals that were with him, and fed them, giving every beast and bird their food in the clock -familiar clock ”(Talmud, Sanhedrin 1086;“ Midrash Tanhuma ”).

For centuries, we have been assured that Noah was an exceptionally positive character who built an ark at his own expense and saved God's creatures from imminent death. Maybe. But developers from Chillingo offer their interpretation of the events of the World Flood.
What if Noah was actually a grumpy, greedy and spoiled old man who loved to sunbathe on the deck of an elite VIP-chip and used animals as a service service? And in general it was off the coast of the Paradise Tropical Island. Когда же кара Божия достигла чертогов земных, вместо того, чтобы спасать утопающих, трусливый Ной перерубил швартовы, и только его и видели. The beasts that did not fall aboard remained – to catch up with the fraudster on a small wooden raft.
Titan, Bun and Zuzu are exotic representatives of the fauna of the tropical island, in the company of which we have to swim thousands of meters along a narrow river. Unknown animals should be kept on a piece of wood for as long as possible, maneuvering between obstacles. Samom-tales do not have a great talent; All that they can is to make faces from the screen. But each of the three souls is the ability to once again imprint the raft into the cobblestone before it is completely empty.
However, boulders are the most harmless obstacle. Piranhas live in stormy streams, crocodiles click their teeth, and octopuses offended by life are not averse to gutting any person oncoming. The smoking gorillas hang with the vines, dinosaurs are pulled to the shore, the river is replete with waterfalls … If you catch up with the ark, Noah Big Wins Casino will begin to throw us with barrels of gunpowder. It is difficult to survive, but there is a chance – the main thing is to touch the edges of the screen in time, thereby setting the course of the raft. Unfortunately, with a gyroscope, a primitive craft does not interact.
As, however, other rafts: an inflatable duckling, a pink boat, a pirate ship, a chovercraft and even a UFO. The rental of the vessel will cost a lot. Gold coins are accepted, which must be collected during rafting along the river. Of course, you can invest in the game and a sonorous dime. In addition, for a small fee, they allow you to fly on pterodactyl (passing the first 2500 meters), get a parachute (resurrection of a fallen overboard) and ride a whale (additional 1000 meters to the test).

Developers Heroes and Castles you can’t call the discoverers-we tried a similar fruit-jeanneic mixture in Dungeon Defenders. But this does not diminish the advantages of the new game: the authors of the software and web designers (before the first game experiments, the studio earned mostly this) managed to build a good “time killer”.
King at death, long live a knight, paladin or engineer. With a traditional role element – the choice of class – heroic misadventures begin. While the monarch in a medieval castle slowly gives God the soul, his faithful guard goes beyond the gates of impregnable walls to compete with the attackers.
An unpleasant circumstance is soon clearing up. Log walls – and it is not close to protection from walking skeletons with pots on their heads, orcs, goblins, vampires, giant salivary trolls and former colleagues of an almost deceased monarch – Mumiyardov Mumy. Evil spirits presses in crowds and with the persistence of woodpeckers hollows along the fortress walls.
Wave a sword in proud loneliness (and with a partner – for nothing that there is a cooperative regime) is extremely ineffective: while we fight back at one wall, enemies pound another. The restoration of fortifications is expensive, so it is better to hire a soldier who will take a blow to themselves. First you will have to turn to uneducated Ivan with compost pitchfork for help, then knights and archers will respond to your call. In addition, the castle did not manage to get into the list of mothballed objects of the UNESCO World Heritage, it can be improved and rebuilt: to build additional towers with guns, strengthen the walls … But this requires at least fabulous wealth.
In the meantime, your ward is just a moderately poor guard, you will have to invest in his future – to pump the standard characteristics for role -playing games. Particular attention should be paid to the ability to move your feet. At first, the hero will move like a ninety -year paralytic. The only difference is that in your hands not a key, but a sword with a shield.
It is not difficult to manage with knightly wealth. The usual virtual joysticks and buttons on the screen do a great job of their tasks. In battle, you can wield not only cold weapons, no one will sue you for cruelty to mummies if one of them is healed with a shield. The lesson was not learned? Then we get the ancient runes from the bosom and for a while we turn into a demigod.
Technical embodiment is quite consistent with the spirit of the harsh Middle Ages: the picture is blurred, the animation is unpretentious. On the other hand, the game without complaints works on outdated devices.
