Number Tower

Number Tower is a simplistic and very poorly made mobile app tier 2D maths game where you take on the role of a little (possibly asset flipped) knight character with a number over your head. You have to tap on enemies in towers. The challenge comes in tapping only on enemies who have a lower number than yours (in which case you kill them and absorb their number into your own). Potions and other gimmicks will raise or lower your number, but you have to tap on everything in each tower before you can go onto the next tower. Empty out every tower to finish the level. Explaining the gameplay for me was an awful experience, because it's such a simple and tedious game, but the neat part is that playing the game is even less enjoyable than writing this review. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. There's no option to change the resolution and no useful graphics tweaks. There's no way to ensure this is running at the native resolution of your display. There's no guarantee this game will look right on any PC as a result of this hamfisted design decision. The game features simple, cartoony 2D graphics, of the type you normally expect to see in low effort mobile apps. 3D graphics programming does require a degree of skill and competence and unfortunately not all developers have the budget or talent to deliver this, despite 3D graphics cards hitting the mainstream in the 1990's. Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high quality, visually impressive game that PC gamers are used to seeing. The controls can't be customised because the game has such a dumbed down, simplified interface that it's just iPhone screen tapping stuff. The fact that the interface is this dumbed down might be seen as a problem in itself, however... this is a fairly shallow experience if you're the kind of gamer that likes to play games with deep, rich control schemes and interaction. You'll get none of that here. This is indistinguishable from a mobile app, but they put this on Steam instead of the app stores by mistake. Was it rejected by Apple and Google (they do have more rigorous quality standards than Valve does for Steam, after all)?. Regardless, for all intents and purposes Number Tower might as well be a mobile app, it has the same limitations and dumbed down qualities. It's impossible to recommend such a game to PC gamers. We don't spend all this money building gaming rigs so we can pretend they're iPhones. These technical defects push this game below acceptable standards for any modern PC game. The poor quality of this game is reflected by how many people spent time with it. At the time of this review, SteamDB shows the all-time peak player number was only 2 players. This is a remarkably low number, and now, the only player activity occurs once or twice a month, presumably someone loading it up to see what it is then quickly uninstalling it. Considering there's over 120 million gamers on Steam and well over 100,000 games for gamers to choose from, the overwhelming lack of interest in this low quality game is to be expected. So, should you buy this game? Is this one of the best of the 100,000+ games on Steam? Number Tower is relatively cheap at $3 USD, but it's not worth it. Given the defects and quality issues with the game, coupled with the unrealistic price, this is impossible to recommend. This is also competing with over 11,000 free games available on Steam, many of them far better than this paid product. [quote][b][url=https://partner.steamgames.com/doc/marketing/profile]Profile Features Limited![/url][/b] Valve have marked this game as "Profile Features Limited" at the time of this review. This is usually caused by poor sales figures and low community acceptance for the game (to date). Until this status changes, this game will not give you +1 to your Game Collector badge count, appear in profile achievements or any other Steam meta-accomplishments, nor can it be displayed in some profile showcases. If these factors are important to you, it may be worth holding off before buying this game.[/quote]

无聊的游戏，规则就是加减乘除以及大于某个数便加该数字，有两种模式，一种模式只有一个角色（一种变量），另一个模式是两个角色（两种变量）。作为不常使用表格的人，通过网络查询在两个小时以内通过Excel的函数破解了单种变量的模式（另一种模式需要使用编译器编程计算了，太麻烦了）。 全程没有一点意思

Ini bukan pertama kali-nya saya bermain game jenis ini. Saat bermain game mobile, terutama game gratis, iklan game jenis game biasanya diperlihatkan. Sejauh ini ada 120 level permainan, dan terlihat mudah tetapi cukup sulit untuk saya selesaikan. Art yang digunakan simple, musicnya juga terdengar santai saat dimainkan.
