To be honest, when I saw the name of this game, my first reaction was another reskinned lawn mowing game. After all, everyone knows what kind of virtues the mobile game market has had in recent years. But with the mentality of giving it a try, I downloaded and played it for two days. I don't want to brag about it, but it really feels like the pure joy of playing “Snake” back then.
The core mechanism of the game is very simple, which is to control a dragon to eat everywhere. From villagers to cattle and sheep, from small trees to buildings, it can swallow anything as long as it is big enough. This devouring evolution process is quite smooth, especially when your dragon evolves from a small lizard to a giant beast that covers the sky, the sense of accomplishment is indeed a bit overwhelming. 😌
In terms of graphics, as a mobile game, the light, shadow and texture details are considered to be above average. The model design of rare dragons such as Phoenix, Ice Dragon, and Shadow Dragon can be seen that a lot of thought has been put into it, and it is not a perfunctory color-changing game. The physical feedback of scene destruction is also good. Houses in the village can collapse piece by piece, and trees can break. This kind of detail processing reminds me of the pleasure of smashing when I played "Motorcycle" more than 20 years ago.
But to be honest, this game still has some common problems with mobile games. The stamina system and growth curve are a bit overwhelming in the later stages. If you want to quickly unlock Gao Xinglong, you will either be sick or have to suffer. Fortunately, the developer Bihan Network has not blocked the way for free players. You can still slowly accumulate resources every day by doing daily activities. This is much better than some web-based mobile games that "play without paying money🐴". 🤔
Collecting over a hundred types of dragons is indeed one of the biggest selling points of this game. Each dragon has different skills and attributes. Some are good at breathing fire, some can freeze enemies, and there are earth dragons that can burrow into the ground. In addition, the map scenes range from forests to volcanoes, from human villages to dwarf caves, and the sense of exploration is well done. For a player like me who likes to collect, playing is quite relaxing. I go online and walk around every day to see the newly unlocked scenes and listen to the sound effects of the roaring dragon. It feels like I am back to the afternoon when I used an MP3 amplifier to play "Angry Birds" ten years ago. 🎮
Overall, if you don't regard it as an epic masterpiece, but as a casual decompression game, then "Hungry Dragon" is indeed worth a try. It is especially suitable for veteran players like me who are tired from work and just want to click on the phone a few times and be satisfied with listening to the sound and watching the explosion. After all, there are really fewer and fewer mobile games that can make people happy without using their brains. 😊
