Game Reviews - Short & Sweet

Published by bozoplay at 1:06 am under GameStuff Edit This

These reviews may be helpful to new players in trying to decide what games are best for you.

The rating is the author’s opinion of the level of complexity on a scale of 1 to 10. Feel free to disagree.

Mafia Wars (5)

Easily the most popular game in Facebook. Also available on MySpace as a separate database. Moderately difficult. More challenging with fewer players.

Mob Wars (5)

Similar to Mafia Wars but requires more discipline in the balance of Properties to Stockpile. Requires a larger number of players to make it playable.

Tribal Wars (11)

Will appeal to the very serious gamer. Strategy, team (tribe) interaction and resource management are critical elements to the game. Browser based (does not use Facebook). Very time consuming.

There is a simpler caveman style game (2) under the same name that is Facebook driven.

Hammerfall RPG (8)

Will appeal to the adventurous looking for an alternative to the shoot-em-up game style. Requires sound decision making, resource management and movement planning. A unique feature is that you can view the game progress of the members of  your guild. The game does not use aliases. It uses your Facebook name. Perhaps the best graphic presentation out there, at this time.

Pirates (6)

Perhaps the fastest growing Facebook game. More social in nature than Mafia Wars. Again, fewer players will make it more challenging.

Football (5)

Knowledge of U. S. football helps but is not mandatory. Less popular than a lot of other games.

Space Wars (4)

Will appeal to the younger player. Trekkies will dominate over time. Good game to learn how to play other Zynga games.

Special Forces (4)

Not as difficult as other games. Good starting point to learn the game concepts of many Zynga games.Very male dominated.
