    Default Celtic Heroes

    These folks have their own website and forum, so perhaps that is why they aren't reviewed here. But I will give it a go...

    The graphics of this game are fine on a small screen mobile device, but the larger screens of tablet render the graphics with a lot of jaggies. The movement is with a virtual joystick and is mostly smooth, but the animations are few. For instance, swing your sword is the exact same animation every time, a right crosscut. The XP is some sort of invisible, to me. There is a meter showing how far along you are to your next level, but there's no math (which might actually be cool, if I get used to the idea.) I can't think of where to put stat points, so I am just putting everything on strength.

    The players on their website are howling about their most recent update. They feel the mages and rogues are now unplayable, so I would avoid those classes for now.

    It's a quest-based game. And there are frankly more quests than you can do. Several of them are repeatable. Maybe some of them are kind of stupid. I tried for a long time to hunt for herbs for three different NPCs there, but all I found was clover.

    I'm not sure about recommending this one, but it's free, so anyone can easily find out for themselves if they like it.

    The main thing I don't understand is "worlds". What the heck is a "world"? A different server? Why not just have everyone on one server? And how the heck do you know which world to join? Nothing on the message board explains it.

    So... anyone else got thoughts on this one?

    I got the username I wanted which was "LadyGaga". But I deleted that game right away. The graphics are a bit cheap, nevertheless the gameplay is a bit cheesy and boring too. I'd say 2.5 stars for me since I knew the creators were trying, everyone deserves some credit! Which is why I'd NEVER rate an app one star. Unless I got really bugged off about it...

    Couldn't get past the character creation screen without laughing, so I never created a character.

    Edit: Oh, and I've given one star to games after they caused idiotic things like data wipes.

    Lol! a wand is just a little stick to hit with. The wand use animation is exactly the same as a sword. At level 9 my wizard can choose to either shoot a firebolt or hit with the wand, same as level 1. The firebolt is less effective than the little stick. As a result, for a fight you just put it on auto attack and hope to survive. The only thing that seems to increase is hit%.

    One different thing, there's no level cap. The dev said, let's see how high people can get.

    But it is set in Scotland instead of Ireland, and the non-druidical clergy are dressed like Christian monks but they worship Irish gods. I'm Irish, so I don't really like that. I would have prefered the emerald isle.

    Anyhow, it's at the beginning of development. It's a start. PL was pretty simple when it started out, too. So I'm cutting these devs some slack.

    Difference is, when PL came out there wasn't much competition so they could get by. Now there's more competition AND technology is able to handle a lot more (and wait till everyone has dual processors and/or 3D phones). For a game to be released in such a state is not worth my time.
