I had nothing to do today and was browsing the application market. I saw the "Three Kingdoms Every Day" page that said "put idle, cute and funny". I originally wanted to just swipe it away. As a result, I looked at the charging model, 0? Is the development team out of their minds, or are they really doing charity? 😂
I downloaded it and played it for two hours. How should I put it? This game is indeed a mobile card game, but what is rare is that it does not have those disgusting things like 6 yuan first charge, monthly card, weekly card, VIP privileges and so on. As an old player who has been tortured by junk web games for ten years, I am very familiar with the situation - you will be given a bunch of gold coins at the beginning, and when you get into the game, your progress will start to slow down. If you don't recharge, you will be abused. But this game seems to be really good at the moment. You can go through the plot for free without going to the rankings to compete with those kryptonians.
Speaking of the difference between stand-alone games and online games, my biggest feeling over the years is: stand-alone games make you happy, while online games make you excited. This is a stand-alone masterpiece. You lie in bed before going to bed, press the pause button to pee, and come back to continue playing. You never have to worry about missing any limited-time activities. What about online games? Signing in online every day to collect stamina, forming a team to play dungeons, guild tasks, arena rankings... How is this playing a game? This is more tiring than 996.
But the idle idle mode of "Three Kingdoms" has found a middle way. You hang up when you are busy at work, use it to collect a wave of experience during your lunch break, and click twice to clear out your energy before going to bed at night. It does not force you to be online all day long, and there are no limited-time bosses that you must click to participate in. I think this is a good signal to single-player players.
Let's talk about the battles in this game. It is indeed a card-based turn-based system, but the skill and special effects are quite carefully done. The generals based on the Three Kingdoms theme are also numerous and complex. In this game, Lu Bu's father can add buffs to Diao Chan, Cao Cao and Yuan Shao have bond bonuses, and gathering 20 generals can unlock hidden plot levels. Players who like to collect are motivated to continue playing. As a stand-alone player, the biggest thing that bothers me is comparison, but collecting is a great pleasure for me.
Of course, having said that, this game is definitely not a masterpiece, and it cannot be compared with the immersive open world of "The Witcher 3" and "Red Dead Redemption 2" that often require hundreds of hours. But if you want to compare it with the rubbish on the market that costs 9999 yuan and has pop-up windows all over the screen, then you really have a grandma's conscience. 😂
I am a stand-alone player, so it is an unexpected surprise that I can find some of the feeling of playing "Heroes of the Three Kingdoms" in this game. The development team of this game is called Nanjing Kipu Network. I have never heard of it before, but in my conscience, I will give it a recommendation. If they dare to secretly add a krypton gold system later, I will immediately abandon the pit and come back to complain. See you in the comment area then. 😂
Finally, to summarize, old players who want to experience the pure plot of the Three Kingdoms and the collection and development can give it a try. Big money spenders, please go and play other games. This game will let you go and please let it go. If you want a stand-alone experience, you can give it a try for ten minutes. It's free anyway, so if you don't want to play it, you won't lose if you delete it. 😏
