Conquistador Rex

2 boyutlu mantık oyunu diyebiliriz. 3 karakterimiz var ve bunları Q, E tuşları ile değiştirip düşmanlara karşı taktiksel olarak alt etmeye çalışıyoruz. Sadece düşmanlar değil engellere de değmememiz gerekiyor. Zor kategoride taktiksel bir platform oyunu. Daha önce bu tarz bir oyuna denk gelmediğim için eşsiz bir yapısı var diyebilirim. Sabretmeyi beceremeyenlere tavsiye etmiyorum. Gideri olan bağımsız bir yapım.

Update: An easier mode has been added in which you can save at any time. This mode allows you to grab all the collectibles without the frustration. Then you can play the game again on the hardest difficulty and just focus on beating a stage. However, there are still things out of your control, such as jumping raptors with no pattern, problematic ladders that don't let you jump from them, so the game is not recommended at higher difficulties. Nice idea that gets ruined by unreliable platforming. The game puts you in control of three conquistadors who must complete nine stages. The twist is that you need to switch between all three heroes and utilize their powers to conquer obstacles, solve puzzles, and defeat enemies. The shield-bearer can block projectiles, glide slowly with the shield, or raise it over its head to serve as a platform. This is where the agile conquistador comes into play, as he is the only one capable of jumping. Aside from crawling through tiny spaces, this guy is used for all types of platforming. The final hero is the only one who can kill enemies with his gun. He can also fire special cannons, although this requires all three heroes. Cannons can also serve as checkpoints if you play on normal difficulty. Checkpoints are the sole distinction between normal and hard mode. It doesn't matter which one you select because the game is difficult. Your heroes are vulnerable and can only withstand one hit. Because you can only complete a stage with all three guys alive, you must restart from the beginning after each death. But while blocking and shooting is at least decent, the game drops the ball with platforming. The game forces you to use precise platforming with uneven spikes. This means that you can touch a spike on one side and live, and then die on the other without even touching it. Also, because you can't control the height of your jump, it's nearly impossible to get through spikes on both the floor and the ceiling at the same time. There’s nothing worse than beating all challenges and then dying on a spike that forces you to redo everything.

I've given up on this after several attempts at the first level. I played on medium difficulty, and even though there is the easier difficulty that allows for saving at any time I can't imagine that would fix the frustrations I experienced. Functionally, the game works. You have three characters to switch from that will help you progress through the levels. It's like an incredibly frustrating version of Lost Vikings. Level design, from what I saw, seemed to be alright for the most part. Just incredibly frustrating with the clunky movements of your characters. That's ultimately what made me walk away from it. I just want to have fun man. If all I'm experiencing within the first 10 minutes is frustration, I know enough to say the game just isn't for me. But, hey.. If you're a fan of Lost Vikings and want something similar, why not give this a shot?
