Athalina's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kingdom Rush]

I love the game. It's epic and really addicting. Very good strategic game. It'd be much nicer if the achievements we get from the game will be earned as medals for NG points too.

[Abobo's Big Adventure]

Haha, really funny and worth playing. One of the best games I've ever played thus far here in NG. Plus, I like games with loads of medals. One thing I look after when playing games. They drive you to play more.

Anyway, I say this game is epic. A must game to play

[Newgrounds Rumble]

Really nice game. Took me forever to beat convict's story mode. I had to keep on jumping away from enemies and had to depend on collectible pick-ups. Especially the bomb is really helpful, and the invincible momentarily helps for a few seconds too.
(Convict and Piconjo are unlockable characters, and to unlock them just go to deposit option and see it for yourself)

One more thing that took me forever is tankman's story. The battle where I had to defeat two opponents in a single match-the Alien and Salad Fingers. It gets easier though if you get rid of the alien first since Salad fingers is too slow but can get to you right then and there because of how small the battlefield is. So for those who are also having a problem with this one, strike the alien as much as possible while SF is away. Another option is to position yourself in either sides of the screen just enough you see yourself almost out of the screen so none of them can go to your back and hit you. Maintain your position and only move from the spot if you had to go and collect power-ups. And after picking it up, go back to where you should be

The best combo maker is the samurai. Not to name him for a reason being, his name is really an @$$. But I like Alloy more. I favorite him coz he's fast, though not too pwerful attacks, and he can jump high enough to get away from enemies (Jump + Fierce attack). It's really a great technique to use when you're running away from enemies and waiting for power-ups to appear.

But anyway, this is really a great game. So I give it a 5. Nice past time too and really addicting

[The Adventures of Zomboy]

Is it just me or what?? It bugs sometimes. I got stuck not because I don't know where to go but gah, I can't move. I'm stuck. Why of all time, I got stuck after I found all the maps and asked to leave the encampment. That's crap. I'm so close!

Okay, for guys out there who are having a hard time to locate where the maps are, I suggest you should click everywhere. Yeah, seriously, I found all of them by clicking things that look suspicious and are paper looking to me. Include clicking the paintings too. Because my...I don't know how come the paintings of the little girl are part of the map. Or maybe some of her drawings. The last piece of map I found was when I clicked the drawing of what seemed to be a woman in the girl's van. That was like...duh.

Anyway, nice art. Animation is good. But the story isn't really that interesting.

[Where is 2012?...]

Too short and easy

Nice game, more like playing in a picture book. Pleasant atmosphere and nice background music. It may be simple but quite entertaining. Santa's footsteps sound cute so is Santa himself.

And seriously, "Help Santa find new year?" Can't he just wait for 2011 to end? And great, it's a girl.

[Little Life]

That was it??

I made all my way to the end only to be told that I don't really need the diamonds? My seriously, that was funny. Anyway, it wasn't really hard. Only need timing and better control of the movements. Would've been better if time can be speed up too so that I don't have to wait for the moving platforms. Nonetheless, nice game

[William and Sly]

Great game

I regret why I did not play this the first time I saw this. It turned out that I played the sequel without trying this out first. Part 2 is great and so is this. Really amazing. Nice atmosphere, nice chirping of birds, nice thunder, and music is really good. Map is too large and fun to explore although one problem is in the map, chests are not marked whenever you find them. It'd be nicer if they are marked in the map too so that once keys are found, all you have to do is go back to where the locked chests are and unlock them.

As to the boss, at first few minutes, it really frustrated me since the monster keep on eating my faeries away. So I thought that all I have to do is wait for the fairies to come out and when there are enough of them for the rune get all of them at once. But no, this isn't a great advice. You see, the boss has a pattern.

Pay attention to where the boss is located (below or above) when his mouth is "closed". When he's above, that means he's going below to eat your faeries, and vice versa. That simple

Hope that helps : )

[Theme Hotel]

Nice strategic game

Everything is great so is the upgrades. Had to admit at first, elevators seem not right for me. No matter how many elevators I make, people are still complaining for more. And so I thought of something to solve this and great, I did come up with a solution. I say 'No to Staff elevators' and only go for 5 and 10 capacity elevators. And avoid building elevators of the same capacity vertically align for a height of more than ten floors. Make sure to alternate 5 and 10 capacity elevators vertically like for instance, three consecutive columns of elevators:

-1st column, 5 cap fora height of 5 floors then 10 cap atop for a height of 10 floors and so on...
-2nd column, 10 cap for a height of 10 floors then 5 cap atop for a height of 5 floors and so on...
-3rd column, 5 cap fora height of 5 floors then 10 cap atop for a height of 10 floors and so on...

That's just an example though. Because later of the game, elevators are more needed than anything else.

Also for rooms and entertainments or services, best not to place them in the same row. There should be floors only for entertainments or services and floors only for rooms. It'd be easy way to manage.

Anyway, again, nice game. Interesting and fun. Well done.

Nice game, very artistic

Nice game. Cool graphics. Got all mushrooms but only found 23 journals out of 25. I had a strong feeling the last chest I found contains the last two journals. But the problem is I couldn't find the key to it. The prize for solving the ahmni test is good but not really great. I mean it'd be better if missing items would be glowing in the map too. It's not funny to be moving around the whole map in circles just to find missing items even with the aid of ahmni. The more time I spend playing the game running around in circles not just gives me headache but frustration too. Though I understand why it did not go the way I'd like it to be. I know it'd be way too easy if that'd be the case. Still it'd be much more favorable to the players.

Another thing, it gets laggy and slow when I'm burning. Though it's still quite acceptable. Not really a major problem.

Nonetheless, good game. Love the artistry of the game; fox looks real; lights glow perfectly; faeries and pixies are beautiful. Great job there.

[Verge]

Well done

Game is cool and interesting. Nice pacing and nice music as well.
