Crisis On Earth-X Was Better Than Justice League

That being said, in its own unique way, Legend of Solgard' s mid-core style of game design is considerably more palatable than other mobile games. The gameplay loop is repeatedly made satisfying by its own rich complexity; the kind of casual challenge that could only come from a mobile title. The more I play Legend of Solgard and ponder the strengths and weakness of my characters, the different varieties of enemies, and different combinations I have at my disposal, the more I get sucked into it. Despite appearing to an outsider as a simple match-three puzzle game, Legend of Solgard contains the ripe intricacy of a four-dimensional� game of chess. Not only do players have to strategically maneuver their factions to attack and defend against their enemy counterparts, they constantly have to focus on the metagame. As each character has its own distinct special ability, the game forces you to contemplate which characters you should utilize during each turn and (later on) which characters you should bring into each fight in gene


As much as the presence of The Flash, Green Arrow, Hawkgirl, Hawkman, Speedy and Vibe probably should feel like the small screen Justice League Amell promised so long ago - and technically, is - it's hard to avoid the feeling that The CW and the producers are planting more seeds than they're reaping. Again, the sheer number of plots at work in the single episode is to blame, meaning the only chance at success is to give each their due time on the screen, and giving up any attempt to make any of them truly profo


If there's one compliment that can be paid to the braintrust behind **The Flash ** , Arrow and the upcoming Legends of Tomorrow , it's that they aren't afraid of taking on the tasks of universe-building that would frighten off other production teams. It's because of that fact that this week's two-part crossover between their headlining stars begins with full reveal of not one, but three new DC Comics characters (on top of continuing each show's storylines). The result is an episode dripping with fan service - but one that ultimately has far too many masters to serve to ever hope of doing it w


Coming up on its third year since launch, Blizzard's take on the MOBA Game News genre, Heroes of the Storm , has seen success due to how approachable the game is, as well as the developers' continued support with new content and heroes. In fact, I had the chance to play the latest addition to the hero pool, Diablo 's Deckard Cain, which I thoroughly enjoyed thanks to the clever uses of his abilit


I’ve never really liked soccer. Unfortunately, here in the UK, it’s a mainstay of our society — when two men meet for the first time, a usual topic of small talk would be something along the lines of ‘So, which team do you support?’ Usually I grit my teeth and mutter something popular: ‘Oh, Chelsea for sure. That Abramovich did some great things. Anyway, how about that swimming competition the other day


MV: I feel like Deckard was one of the biggest challenges we've had to tackle. It's always fun going through that process of coming up with the abilities the heroes. We all get in a room together and go through their background, their lore, what powers they're known for, and things like that. That will give us room to have a discussion and see what ideas might be cool to do for them. The designers assigned to the hero will sit down and draw the kit and come up with the base gameplay that we think will work well for t


Similarly, Embla has her own hit points and is subsequently susceptible to enemy attacks. To avoid losing Embla's hit points, players must either take out enemy forces or place their own creatures in the path of enemies to absorb incoming attacks. However, you only have a set number of moves per each turn, so you must consider each placement pragmatica


One of the examples I can throw out is with supports. We've been getting a little bit more involved with the decisions you make as a support. You can kind of see this with Deckard and the different ways he can use healing potions, Alexstrasza and the different ways she can use her heals, and Ana who has this really engaging skillshot-healing gameplay. We don't want it to be like playing whack-a-mole with the lowest health b


For a moment I would like to return back to the image of my bedroom. There's still my Nintendo Switch, my gaming PC, my Xbox One, and my iPhone. And yes, all of these devices still provide all of their own distinct, unique experiences. Each of these devices still has games that are best suited for it. And yet, after playing Legend of Solgard , I'm forced to re-contextualize my iPhone not as a phone that can play games, but rather, a type of gaming platform in its own ri


Legend of Solgard broadened my definition of what a mobile game could be; it took my expectations of free-to-play games and provided something much grander. While imperfect and likely inaccessible to the most casual of players, Legend of Solgard is an exciting step forward for not only mid-core titles but mobile titles as a wh
