Pros and cons of Radzone : the Nuclear Wargame app for iPhone and iPad
Radzone : the Nuclear Wargame app good for
The game is addictive but a little too simple. Make submarine to invade water spaces to earn more cash and at the same built anti-air and try to nuke more than u get nukes yourself. I was able to win a game without reelly nuking anyone properly. Good game but need a little more option. Still, I would buy it again knowing that cause the simple graphics doo the trick for me, and I love risk type of game.
Graphics: Clean, clear, neon/vector style graphics fit the game, as you feel like youre behind some war command screen. The interface is very simple, but still tells you all you really need to know.
Sound: Ambient music, with sound effects. Hearing "Launch Sequence Activated" gets your blood pumping as you try to figure out who launched them, and where theyre headed.
Controls: Pinch to zoom, slide to pan around the map, and a central targeting reticule handles location picking for construction and bombing. A draw box and tap-to-move commands your submarines. Controls feel very natural once youre used to the two methods.
Gameplay: Compete for control on a world scale. Capture water-based factories for resources, and defend them with submarines. Protect your cities with anti-missile turrets, while trying to destroy enemy turrets with bombers. Every 5 minutes signals the availability to launch nuclear missiles. Points awarded for each million deaths. You may also make/break alliances with other nations.
Content: A single gameplay mode with 3 difficulty levels. Games are intense, and will keep you interested for a while, but more modes would be nice. Multiplayer is noticeably missing, and would add a lot to the game. Leaderboards/achievements would be nice too.
Conclusion: 4/5 An excellent and different game thats well worth considering for fans of real-time strategy.
Some bad moments
Its great, but it needs a little improvement. Its in desperate need of a fast-forward button, and I wish the price was lower. Also Im not fond of the way all the resources are in the ocean. (but maybe thats just me). Anyway, as soon as the price gos down, it could be a must buy.
This is a good game but I just have a few recommendations.
1. Make it a little cheaper.
2. It would be cool to have ground units.
3. Replace bombers with fighter bombers that can attack and defend cities.
4. Controls should be a little bit easy.
Dont get me wrong this is an awesome game but what i put as recommendations, I think would make it even better.
I wish you had simply copied the excellent gameplay of Defcon, rather than just its look and feel. At first, I enjoyed the addition of resource gathering, but then quickly realized the underlying combat mechanics were hopelessly daft.
Also, why is the scrolling so jerky (iPhone 4 here)? We had glass-smooth scrolling of bitmaps back in 81 for Gods sake.
+2 stars for effort
+1 for execution
-1 for the price
A mediocre Defcon lookalike. Game play so so, graphics stolen from Defcon and implemented as sprites, not vector art.
This app is pretty awesome and adds to my growing rts collection
This game us a joke! Its the exact same as the developers other games just with a different name. However you wont see that on the app description or the screen shots. Dont believe me? Look at the developers other games. Avoid avoid avoid.
