Got the game for a $1, definitely worth more than a chicken nugget
An atrocious game that I remember having played, even though many years have passed. I remember not liking it.
I am 32 years old.
My ex-wife and I have a daughter together, and we adopted our son together. Both are now 4 years old.
When we were going through our separation, I felt lost and unhappy. I was self-destructive. One day, I was so angry with everything spiraling out of control that I punched a concrete wall in a moment of overwhelming emotion. This resulted in breaking my fifth metacarpal in my right hand—the hand I worked with, played games with, and used to carry my children to bed—the hand I desperately needed to ensure I could continue providing.
Upon learning the severity of the self-inflicted damage, I became almost suicidal. Keep in mind that just a few months before this, I was the happiest man, with no history of depression or anxiety. I had never experienced anger outbursts, nor was I the type to break down and cry, but I was in a tough situation that truly prevented me from seeing the light on the other side.
With nothing better to do, I looked for a game I could play WITH ONE HAND while recovering. Somehow, I stumbled upon this game and read some of the comments. I decided it was worth a try... I must admit I didn't beat the game, nor did I play as much as some of you. In fact, I may have played this game for only a day or two. That being said, after doing so, I had a new joy and hope for life. I managed to leave behind the pain and suffering that had been thrust upon me. I could experience the joy and happiness of other people. I relaxed for 5 ♥♥♥♥ minutes listening to this music, long enough to realize that I would be okay.
After realizing this, I turned off the game and went back to work. My hand hurt a lot, but I was motivated. I stopped feeling so sorry for myself and became the father I needed to be at that moment, not the weak boy I was behaving like.
Today, I am close friends with the mother of my children. We don't fight, argue, or say hurtful things to each other. We are parents and friends.
Now I have 3 children. My third child is, wait, ALSO 4 YEARS OLD. The woman I am with was going through a very similar situation at the time of my separation, and we just unexpectedly stumbled into each other's lives. We have been dating for a year and are very happy together.
Moral of the story: you never know what life has in store for you, and if I had given up when all odds were against me, I wouldn't be where I am today. This silly little game helped me realize that.
Thank you.
Simples mas com puzzles bem interessantes.
Pretty good game for people that liked INTO THE BREACH and PLANTS VS ZOMBIES! This is a weird combination of those games, I would say. Worth the asking price.
Fantastic turn based puzzle game.
The pacing and gameplay loop is 10/10.
I just wish you could pay like 1500 gold to refund a character skills and the most dumb design decision in game are mercs.
Like seriously any merc with none exp/level based passive bonus is straight up BETTER than any of main protagonists which means that if you buy a merc with +1 perma energy or + 1 health/+1 damage (the best merc in the game) you want to throw away any of main characters into a thrash can and never think about using them and never use them again because they have zero passive bonuses and yet the same exactly skill tree.
That definitely should not be a thing in any party based video game, especially with a clear story.
Also there is a missing cutscene that failed to load quite important story wise cutscene about Ragnarok for me at the end of "Moon" chapter. Like a character came back, other character was a traitor and stole important magic thingy to turn into a monster. Sounds important, eh?
Please fix it developers!
Nice little stratgame
Hummorvoll. witzig. Macht spass
+ Необычно
+ То что нужно перед сном
- Однообразно
This game needs more popularity it deserves.
Hilarious narrative for players to relax between hard puzzles is a nice thing.
Graphics also adds to the humor of the game.
Skill tree provides replay value where you can explore different combinations for the development of your heroes.
Come on, let's give the devs more support! Thanks.
Great turn-based strategy game, a little grindy at certain stages of the game. Definitely a hidden gem, I had not heard of this game before. Also works great on Linux!
A terrific puzzler. A series of chess puzzle type challenges (with a few random elements), overlayed with a fun silly story and fun silly graphics, and enough of a leveling-up mechanism and party-choosing to keep it fresh for quite a while (though you definitely do max out fairly quickly and settle on an optimal party that you can use for most everything).
Reverse Plants vs Zombies with KILLER SOUNDTRACK. Lots of guitar and 80's cliché opening it's pure gold.
Amazing game to play on my crappy netbook i take to work.
Loving the strategy in this game, once you get the main characters in the story to add to your clan it’s a ton of fun trying to figure out the strategy of who to use and in what order so they all help each other survive the levels. The level challenges seem to change so they are repeatable for gold or experience and some add a bit of complication when they force you to use a specific character and character level..
I can see myself spending lots of time playing and replaying the levels. Some of the Arena type challenges add another aspect to the game and give you an extra piece to conquer.
Story and comic animations are pretty funny also...
Star Vikings is actually a bit like Plant vs. Zombies - but you play the Zombies not the plants. It is a reversed tower defense game, where you have to destroy the towers (slugs) to get through. You have a variety of "heroes" in your arsenal, the tank, able to withstand a lot of damage, the viking, able to throw lightning on the slugs, "angels" able to cast shields (and healing), ...
Each hero can wear a hat, giving him some bonuses, like extra damage, extra energy, more hitpoints, ...
It is a worthwile casual game and quite nice to play.
On the downside:
- Some daily quests simply don't work (and some are somewhat stupid/annoying)
- Some achievements are somewhat bugged. No idea how to get the Leaderboard achievement (I guess, the Friends/Leaderboard feature was simply not implemented yet).
- You need to do a lot of grinding to get the more difficult achievements
- The interface is somewhat optimized for tablets. Not a big deal, but I guess, it would be perfect to play it on a tablet on not with a mouse.
Still, the bugs are mostly minor, I recommend this game to casual players, looking for a reversed tower defense game. Btw.: The game works flawless on Linux (with Mesa drivers).
Thank you for this game.
Jogo muito bacana. Trilha sonora bem feita, jogabilidade simples e fácil entendimento. Idioma HUE BR é o melhor, cheio de zoeiras e tiração de sarro durante o jogo. Recomendo fácil.
Je suis étonné que ce jeu ait si peu d'évaluations alors je m'attèle à la tâche.
Dans ce jeu, le développeur s'est lancé dans un pari osé : il a introduit de la gestion procédurale dans un puzzle game / jeu de réflexion. Cela aurait pu très mal se finir avec des niveaux infaisables ou ridiculement faciles, mais au final le tout reste balancé et cohérent. On ajoutera à ça des nouveaux ennemis et héros possédant de nouvelles mécaniques qui arrivent tout au long de l'aventure et brisent la routine.
Sur la forme, les sprites sont soignés et suffisamment différents pour bien identifier les mécaniques des ennemis et l'on est accompagné d'une musique entrainante avec un côté métal (peu commun comme choix pour un jeu de réflexion cela dit).
Sachant qu'une démo est disponible, je vous encourage fortement à l'essayer.
Compra certa e ainda é baratinho!
Clever puzzle game with a great atmosphere and very polished.
9/10
nice puzzle game
Really enjoyed Star Vikings!
Pros
- It's a fun game!
- Solid as a rock (no bugs, a lot of polishing)
- Great Soundtrack - "STAR VIIIIIKIIIIIINGS!"
- Lots of funny jokes as well!
- It's a mix of tactical battle and puzzle. It can be very challenging!
- Loved those levels with extra items (every 12 steps, you get one item). You can test the power ups, it's pretty cool
You should [b]buy Star Vikings[/b]. It is a game with a [b]fantastic gameplay[/b] for those who [b]enjoy puzzles[/b]. The Vikings attack the snails with hits that cause [b]chain reactions[/b] creating a very [b]good feel[/b]. The [b]music and all sound effects[/b] are exciting. It is a casual game in its essence but you need a lot of intelligence to do well in puzzles. I really [b]liked it[/b].
Watch the trailer. Listen to the theme song.
YES the game is as good as that theme song.
(And if you don't like the song, you obviously have horrible taste and shouldn't be allowed to buy anything ever)
Seriously though, if you're a fan of the genre you'll have a blast with it. The level generation works beautifully, and makes it impossible to get bored. Give it a try!
I've been playing for a couple hours so far, and having a blast.
I don't usually like puzzle games, but this one really got into me, because it's a great challenge.
Besides that, the soundtrack is amazing! I'm listening to it every day.
If there would be a neutral I would pick that instead of negative.
The game is not bad, just not something I enjoy for longer time.
It just reminds me too much of a (free to play) mobile title with a lot of repetition and grinding.
For people who really enjoy the combat it may be a good investion, but there the game is just not tight enough for me.
I recomend all to try the demo, to see if you like the gameplay or not.
+ Quite unique puzzle gameplay.
+ The game is all in all quite well done, no big bugs noticed to now.
+ The characters play different, the enemies and the levels as well.
+ And there are upgrades which also change the way you play, making them more than gimmicks
+ There are quite some (optional) challenges later.
- The "random" generated levles can have big differences in difficulty
- The game seems to be made with mobile also in mind.
- The game gets a bit grindy and the randomness is not always fun.
