So the other day I reviewed Indestruc2Tank, and I breifly mentioned in that post the main reason I was reviewing a game that had been out for quite awhile was because the anniversary edition had been released.
When I first found out about the anniversary edition (VIA Kongregate’s badge system) I was really excited ’cause I really liked I2T and was hoping that this version would be even better, sadly I was disappointed.
The first flaw in indestructotank AE is the camera, as you get higher the camera zooms out which can make it harder to continue your combo especially when you come back down, I think it would have been better if they had stuck with the Indestruc2Tank camera where it doesn’t zoom out it just gives you a (fairly) exact idea of where abouts you are.
The next thing that kind of annoyed me about this game was that Armor Games has attempted to make indestructotank AE look more “realistic” as a result the graphics are more bland (but realistic) but I suppose that may appeal to some people…
It seems that the fuel in your indestructo tank is used up faster, I suppose this make it more harder then I2T (which is good) but it goes so fast I almost wish there was a way to get fuel back.
It would have been nice if the experience could have been automatically added to your experience bar as you were making these combos as opposed to getting added after you’ve finished the combos as I was getting more then a little ticked off about the way I had to end combos as I was nearing low fuel just to see if I’d got enough experience to move onto the next level.
If this game wasn’t a special edition then I would have have liked it much more, if the graphics weren’t so realistic I would almost dare to say that this game was put together on the spur of the moment…
GRAPHICS: 8/10 (very realistic but not my style…not for this game anyway)
MUSIC: 2/10 (annoying and no mute button, I wanted to listen to some music but it wasn’t possible)
REPLAY VALUE: 3.4/10 (go play indestruc2tank insted)
ALL IN ALL: 6/10
