Avaliações de TINY METAL

Tiny Metal has come to provide some news for the gap left by Nintendo and their Advance wars series, which never received all the attention it deserves. These are my personal thoughts. Let's start with the cons. TM is a beautifully designed turn-based game, but at first it's hard to distinguish the units, in the isometric view. Sometimes, the maps look all too similar to each other and there are no naval units nor landers or APCs to transport units. Even aircrafts can't get through hills, and this seemed too forced. Cutscenes are too long, with many elements imported from Advance wars series, like clones and a hidden boss manipulating the other armies. And, at least in Campaing mode, you can play with only one army. The game gets too predictable sometimes, because of that. And, for my laptop, the game seems too heavy for a turn-based game. Sometimes I have to load the game 3 or 4 times in order to run without crashing. The pros: units have their own voices and personalities, and many movie references. This is a plus. Maps have secret items and things to do, which keeps the player interested at the game for more time. Comm towers bring tactical advantage, since they allow you to deploy units on places at first unavailable. And you get to decide when to repair a unit, so this gives you more freedom to spend your resources. You get even more freedom since you get to replay a mission as many times as you wish, in Campaign mode. And the gameplay is easy: many turn-based games fail to do so, but Tiny metal succeeds at this. Overall, it's a good game which lives by Advance wars' shadow. It has potential, and I hope new ideias come up with a sequel.

O jogo estava todo perfeito. Passado um ano os desenvolvedores resolveram lançar uma atualização que muda os gráficos e mecânicas de jogo (patch 1.1.0 MPGO). PRA QUÊ ! ! ! ? ? ?
