8/2/2023 0 Comments Cubemen hacked![]() ![]() The TV is simply for display purposes and to entertain potential onlookers, but the player's eyes are glued to the controller's relatively small - in the context of this experience - screen. ![]() To address this right away, it highlights both a strength and weakness of the entire reasoning behind this release. An experience available on PC and tablet devices, what we have here is a mix of control schemes only possible - in console terms - with Wii U. However, the modest resolution and size of the GamePad screen isn't a perfect fit, and this feels like a rather nice PC interface crammed down onto a limited touch screen - with some physical inputs mashed in. It's functional and becomes manageable with practice, but it is a square-pegs-round-hole solution it's the only control scheme, so you need to get used to it. Once you do become accustomed to the control setup there's a well-structured, enjoyable strategy game. The Cubemen come in a range of classes that cover the standard bases affordable pea-shooters, rocket launchers, laser weapons and even units that function as walls and mines. It is, as would be expected of a real-time strategy title, a matter of momentum - earn 'cubes' (currency) by destroying enemies and then invest in more units, building your forces. That's not to say that a bad start puts hope beyond reach, but strong performance early on is hugely beneficial in securing victory. There are plenty of options for a match, too. There are two single-player only modes - Defense and Rescue - which are relatively self-explanatory the former tasks you with holding your base, while in the second there are AI civilians trying to walk to your base that require protection. Rescue is particularly interesting in terms of managing terrain, while Defense has two campaigns (of 15 levels each) which serve as the only truly fixed challenges in the entire game they offer serious challenge in later levels, and are useful for learning and then mastering the core mechanics.īeyond these options are five multiplayer modes, though the rules - as is also the case in the single player modes - can be customised in areas such as number of minutes, waves, players, whether you seek online opponents or take on AI bots etc. Continued abuse of our services will cause your IP address to be blocked indefinitely.Skirmish is a simple affair of killing other enemies, while Capture The Flag is a welcome mix of defending your own base and escorting an automated minion after an opponent's flag.
