CONQUER ALL YOU CAN!
Not one to turn down a .99 cent game on the 3DS eShop, I got EUROPEAN CONQUEROR the other day, and found it to be actually a really fun and challenging game. The game takes place during WWII, and you get to play as one of the bigger European Power(England, USSR, Germany, etc)--and use your Soldiers, Tanks, Artillary and an array of strategies to overtake your enemies in a challenging bit of On-The-Battle-Map war and tactics.
Each new bit of land you overtake, and can defend allows you to add to your empire, building a Fortress, a Development(town), and adding to your army with tanks, etc. Building towns add to your income(taxes) which fund your military spending, and make sure you use every dollar wisely--but keep your army well armed.
The game IS only 99 cents for the first week, and is more than worth it. The developer Circle Entertainment is giving fans the deal, and hopefully we can see more like it soon from them.
Time for Ratings:
Gameplay: 9/10
Simple and effective, using the touchscreen to choose your attacks--and the battles are a "roll of the dice", as you choose how many Soldiers/Tanks/Artillary you want to attack your enemy with--trying to keep the advantage is tough--and trying to defeat 5 tanks with 1 Soldier MAY not be the smartest. YOUR Main objectives in each level/mode is to overtake the enemy's Capital/Fortress, take this and you claim their territory and can build and build more.
Graphics: 8/10
Not much, the battles and maps are in basic 3D--but it's got enough going for it to make it look nice and detailed.
Music: 9/10
Good War/Military Band music, including a few tracks I instantly recognized(from one of my Cartoons)--which does loop, but still fits well.
Replay: 7/10
Admittedly only playing it for 4 hours in a single go, it probably does have good replay, as you can try to improve your strategy, and unlock new missions and conquest levels. If you're a Military Game OR Strategy Game fan, you can probably play this all you want.
Overall: 8/10
FUN game, good bit of History, and something ALL gamers should at least try. I'd say get it if you want something that can test your mind powers, or if you want a good challenge.
