8-Bit Armies
SCORE: 68
I heard about 8-Bit Armies and thought
this was a video game I would immediately despise. After playing 8-Bit
Armies I realized I did not immediately despise it. 8-Bit Armies is
interesting in a couple of ways. I will try to express myself on those
later on this review. Family Friendly Gaming was given a digital
download code for 8-Bit Armies on the Xbox One. There is a physical copy
version of 8-Bit Armies also available. If we receive one we will do an
Unboxing video for you guys.
The options available in 8-Bit Armies are Game Manual, Campaign, Co-op
Campaign, Skirmish, Multiplayer, Options, and Language. When we play the
twenty-five levels of Campaign mode we can play as the Renegades or
Guardians. There are twelve multiplayer modes that allow for up to eight
people to play with one another online. When you win you get this
message - "Victory A Winner Is You."
8-Bit Armies is an RTS video game. Not familiar with that three letter
acronym(TLA)? 8-Bit Armies is a real time strategy video game. We
collect resources and build things. What kinds of things. Barracks are a
great example. Then we can move our troops around. 8-Bit Armies has a
great control scheme that was easy to pick up and use. The goal is to
destroy the base of the computer or other player(s).
The graphics are small and blocky in 8-Bit Armies. It fits the whole
8-Bit theme of this violent video game. We are at war in 8-Bit Armies.
So expect to see violence, and blood. There are plenty of explosions in
8-Bit Armies as well. The music is fantastic. We are forced to play the
tutorial. I could have figured these things out by myself eventually.
There are some nice tips in that tutorial though.
I loved being able to tell the Barracks in 8-Bit Armies to produce
multiple of a certain troop and then multiple of another kind of troop.
This allowed me to go explore the map while the base was resupplying the
troops I needed to replenish. It was also pretty cool to find tanks in
8-Bit Armies. I did not realize at first they were on my side. RTS
gamers can have fun with 8-Bit Armies.
