Pokemon Art Academy (3DS Game Review)

Hello everybody, today I will be reviewing the Pokemon Art Academy game on 3DS. The thing is that I've only played around an hour, so this is my perspective while initially watching this game.

So as the title suggests, in art academy what you do is draw Pokemon step by step, starting with the outlines, then colouring in. If you're like me, and are really bad at drawing , then this is the game for you to start of your Pokemon drawing journey!! There are a few Pokemon faces that you can select and draw first, one of them I drew was a Pikachu, and a Piplup.

To be honest, after I drew one Pokemon, I realised how much the guy talks so much in between each step! I actually find it annoying and would rather him not talk so that I can just go and learn how to draw!!

For the moment anyway, I feel like this is more of a colouring in book in which you just trace Pokemon in, but I heard that as the drawings get more complicated, it gets harder to draw the Pokemon, so I think that I need to play more of this game to get a overall rating. But for a temporary rating, I'd have to give it a 6.5/10. I really like the idea of learning how to draw Pokemon though. I wouldn't recommend this game if you don't like drawing or learning how to draw Pokemon as this would not be the game for you. That is all for now, goodnight!

Dumb Ways to Die (App Game Review)

Hello everybody, yesterday I downloaded the dumb ways to die app game on my ipod and decided to play it today, and I have to say it's pretty addicting.

So if you haven't watched the MV yet then click play below!

So you see the characters again in this game. Basically you do these tasks in a limited time to try and prevent them from dying. If you can't save them, then they die. If you do then you go up to the next level. For each level, the time limit decreases, and the levels get harder in various ways. You have three lives before the game ends.

I'm sure once you download the game and try it, you'll realise why I say that it's addicting, as you want to get a better score each time! For a free app I strongly recommend this game. It's just something fun to play when you're bored or waiting or something. I try not let it interfere with my life too much haha.

It also helps spread awareness for safety, including a share button which is good. Do I need to rate this game??? Kind of hard to, but maybe a 8.5??? Nothing I can say that is bad about it, but although it does spread awareness about safety, you can take it the other way too lol. Anyway, that's all, bye!

Dead Island (Game Review)

You know one thing I've missed out of the URL? Gaming, and also books!!! I'm thinking of changing my page name before too many people find it. For now anyway  I will be doing a quick review on Dead Island(PS3 Version). I just recently swapped this game in for Burnout Paradise for $16. I had heard good things about the game and also I've seen my friends play it before and they liked it.

The survival/ horror game starts off inside a hotel and you don't really know where to go or what has really happened. You come across funny looking people(zombies) and run. The first time I actually got scared as they attacked because I forgot how to sprint, and also the vibrate was on so I had to turn it off(I don't like it at all). Anyway, later on you're saved by survivors and you do these quests where you find items and stuff and clear out all the zombies. It's pretty graphic stuff, I know why it's R18 now!!!

I have only played around one hour of the game so I can't say that I know a lot about the game, but usually if you don't like the game within a certain time frame then it's not very good at all. I do have to say that the game is a bit glitchy though (and I've heard about some of them online). The camera angles could be a bit better as it made me want to throw up within that hour of the game (that's why I quit haha).

Dead Island - 10 Minutes Gameplay by GameStar, 25/05/11

What I like about the game is the fighting zombies but but they could have done a better job though. POV is through the eyes in the game. I'm not quite sure if they have it or not but it'd be nice if there was a full body view, that way it's easier to see where you're hitting as you need to balance your way to hit zombies and pick up items.

I was actually watching Resident Evil the week before and Shiki the week before so I thought it was time to play a Zombie themed game :) Anyway if I had to score this game, I'd give it a 6.5/10 as it's not bad at all but not outstanding. Not really much story-wise, and things could have been improved.

As a little note, from now on I'm going to just post YouTube videos of the things I'm reviewing and talking about, until I figure out the whole copyright thing because I'm pretty sure I didn't have permission for any of the images. But anyway, I hope you enjoyed this quick review. Until next time, bye!
