There are so many war games that I have played, from Grand Strategy on MD, to Red Alert in the computer room, and then to the Internet cafe all-night empire era. At that time, the mouse clicks were all pixel villains, commanding a bunch of soldiers to chop down trees and mine mines. At the end of the night, my eyes were darker than mines. Later, when smart phones came out, I also played COC crazily for a while, but I always felt that the style of painting was like a house game and not hardcore enough.
So when I first saw the film "Clash of Kings: Western Continent", hey, that smell was just right. This is not just about building a house and farming, the key is "people". Think back to when you were playing Red Alert, and when the Apocalypse Tank Sea came out, who could reason with you? Now in this western continent, the principle is the same, but what matters is the right time, right place, and right people. You have to form gangs, chat with players from all over the world and make friends, and you have to prevent others from stealing your hometown.
At that time, people in the Red Police were stealing homes, called "selling bases," and they were very sinister. Now in this game, you have to think about the city defense layout, don't let others take over the resources at once, recruit troops and buy horses to ambush, the feeling of excitement between offense and defense is comparable to that of the Internet cafes in the past when you slapped the keyboard and shouted "charge". It's just that now it's on a mobile phone, so you can play it anytime, anywhere.
To put it bluntly, the power of this game is to bring back the urge you had when you fought side by side with your brothers in the game and got up in the middle of the night to collect resources for the honor of the alliance. The picture quality is new, but the taste is old, and the resource management is about it. I think back then, we had practiced the basic operation skills of StarCraft. Is this still a rare opportunity for an experienced driver?
Okay, without further ado, I have to go to the Western Continent to enclosure. I didn't think of myself as a Western cowboy at that time, but this time I have fun on my mobile phone. Are there any brothers who can do this together? Let's form a cavalry team to recreate the glory of the steel torrent in Red Alert. Maybe the overlord of the western continent will really have to be selected from our bunch of old bones. 🤠
