MI4-REAL-2001's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Arkandian Crusade]

Absolutely fun and addicting

I've played for hours and it's still fun and addicting. All the elements featured are great.

Numerous items with numerous enchantments, crafting and recipes, fighting, collecting, and a mystery dungeon with endless replayability.

It has been known that some of the recipes you have are sold again, and will not change in the shop until you purchase them. That doesn't bother me.
There is a way around it, however. Go back to the main menu, continue the journey with the selected character, and the recipes available in the shop will randomize.

And the Demonic Servant medal isn't working for me. I've cleared the Demon campaign twice, and still nothing.
It should be known that I cleared the Ascension campaign first on my first file, and then the demon campaign on the 2nd and 3rd.
The in-game trophy works, but not the medal.

For those wondering why you aren't getting your trophy rewards, they are rewards for *future* Arkandian games, not this one. The saves will interact with each other in that regard.
As of now, there are currently not any other Arkandian games besides this one.

Also, the comedy and humorous items, and humorously named items, were great. In fact even dressing your character up was fun. You can outfit your chracter in many ways.

I like how my demon character looked. I equipped him with:

Mister Stabby>Kite Shield>Eyeless Sighter>Skystalker Armor>Spiked Gauntlets>Plated Shoes

and used Red Hair Bread to change his hair color red. Hairstyle was a ring of hair around his otherwise bald head, and a small moustache.

This is a top tier RPG and is definitely 10/10 5/5 and a favorite.

Not the easiest shooter

I finally got the gold medal with a time of 2:15

The game itself isn't terribly hard, so much as getting the high score.

Really nothing else to say. The game is fine as it is.

[Armor Mayhem]

Absolute Awesomeness

This game is awesome, plain and simple. It was a joy to play.

I cleared all the missions on the first try, got all the achievements/medals, and still would come back for more.
The only thing I could possibly think of that would make this game better is more weapons.

Flash shooter gold for sure!

#5642 out of 92000 all time speed score

This was an awesome game!

Not much to say specifically about the game itself, but I'd like to point out that no quality control exists, and would be great for those using older machines, like me.

I had the game lock up on me a couple of times for whatever reason...thankfully the save state allowed me to close and re-open the game where I was at .

I got the award for clearing Kenya in under 26 days, but the medal is still locked...I'm not sure if that is a one-time thing, or if this medal doesn't work.
Guess I'll have to play the game again to find out!

(For the record, I cleared the entire game in 20 days....so I did earn the award)

Finally, I liked the cameo appearances....very fitting.

It's very stable, pretty smooth, and fits well along with the other high-tier "Toss" games out there.

[Addicting Game]

Not bad

It's a solid puzzle game with medals.

One flaw in the game is that a level clear is based on time, and not on the absence of enemies on that levels final wave.
Which means that if you lag, the level can end before you're actually done.

Apparently, even though the game slows down from lag, the internal timer does not.

In spite of that, I cleared all 40 waves the right way.

[Epos]

Fun Game

First, I would like to say that I beat the entire game on Challenge Mode.

Also, I would like to say that this game was definitely fun, and worth playing.

Performance-wise, the game has the option to turn quality to LOW and to disable the Battle Camera to enhance performance and reduce lag. Two definite pluses.

I ended up getting the "Mage Master" medal without obtaining all spells. At that time, I also didn't have a character with Level 3 on all basic spells either. (although I was close) This is probably the only significant flaw in the game.

I discovered something else that may or may not be a bug, but doesn't affect the game at all.
I was able to encounter Toby the Wendego twice in the same game (on Challenge). I didn't have any luck being able to do that with the other bosses.

Issues involving the game itself were very slight. Primarily, the white aura that denotes who's turn it is, would be hard to see, and I would attack with the wrong character.
I eventually got used to this and was able to go on without further confusion.

All said, it was worth it.

As previously stated, all the medals do work, but you need to refresh your screen after the game is over.

There should be an option to disable the "Party" and "Confetti" modes for slower machines.

And once again, a very amusing idea, followed by a very amusing game.

[Pixel Purge]

I reached Level 33. Yikes!

Very addictive and well-balanced shooter. Nothing short of near-perfection.

Progressive difficulty, upgrades, trophies, and addictive gameplay make this game a winner.

[Road of the Dead]

Run them all down!

Very well made game. Ability to use popup mode and the in-game function of turning off buildings helps greatly against lag.

Concept is well thought out throughout the game, with solid progressive storyline.

One thing I don't get is why "Highway to Hell" has checkpoints, and allows you to get the medal even if you die.
It appears to be the exact same thing as "The Great Escape" but the difficulty is harder, that is you can take less damage, or their bullets do more damage, or there are more hazards, etc.
What made the Highway to Hell scenario harder than the Great Escape Scenario? That's what I'd like to know.

Not that I'm complaining....I couldn't do the whole game with a single car. I died 4 or 5 times attempting Highway to Hell.

Liked the upgrade system, too. Always a plus.

Only thing I can think of is that it could use more options/enemies/etc for more mindless rampaging. There isn't a flaw I can think of right off hand. If there are any.

[Carve n' Share]

Very nice

This has got all the tools necessary to make some rather cool virtual carved pumpkins.

It's about as basic as you get, but the possibilities are seemingly endless. It is awesome to be able to submit it for the general public to see and rate. And it saves your masterpiece(s).

Although at this rate, you may want to include a "Search" option as the user-made pumpkin queue is getting rather large.

I'm no artist, but I made a decent white sword from the first Zelda game using this.
I also made a TourettesGUY themed pumpkin for fun, but I don't think flmewarrior would like that one too much :/

One bug that is a bit of a nuisance is that when you submit, it might not go through.
And when you re-submit and it does go through, you found out you submitted it twice on accident.

I'm getting attached to the square tool and thinking of making another virtual pumpkin after I post this review :)
