I am a gamer who had lost his way.
6 years back I had logged out of TV and logged into FB, Twitter. Kept liking and sharing and tweeting the past 6 years or so. All this time I had not completed any game – other than the occasional try outs of Angry Birds, Candy Crush Saga, Temple Run. Monument Valley is an exception – the first game I purchased and played to the end after reading rave reviews of this game.
It has been a month or more – since I logged out of Social Media. It was giving too much BP with zero action or outcome.
And to occupy the new found free time – gaming moves in. Idle brain is a devils worskshop you see.
I started on Lara Croft Go game – a 60 Rs. Download from App Store, and promptly got stuck at 3rd level or so – dont remember exactly. The game nudged me to buy a puzzle opener for Rs.160 – but I did not. Persisted and after lot of trial and errors cracked that level.
Then when I completed all the levels, they opened up one more level – I was both happy and angry…grr.. have to put up with more of these spiders and poison arrows – and man the final level was hard! And yesterday night I completed it.
The above screenshot is the final scene. All the lizards, snakes, spiders that tormented me throughout the game were coming to grab Lara – and Lara has no where to go but to walk till the edge and grab the magic immortal stone – which spits out a brilliant bright light and all the tormentors die.
Gives immense satisfaction after completing all the levels.
Beautiful game – graphics, animation, music – the works. Does not need fast reflex – it is a turn based game and you can take your time to make the move. You make one move, spider moves one space – and even if you die you get to try again.
Next on my list is either a racing game – not sure if my reflexes are still intact ( Horizon Chase ) or another Puzzle game ( Lumino City ).
The gamer is back.
