A Jungler is a player who plays mostly within the jungle of the map, focusing on the wolves, golems and buff monsters that live within it. As they gain experience and items, they will start to ambush your lanes, either to help you or to attack you if you’re on opposing teams. This form of ganking is very common, especially in mid-lane. Learning proper routes of the jungle is important, as there are a few different ways to go about approaching the jun
Today marks the 25th anniversary of the original Game Boy's launch in North America, and while the platform saw multiple versions and variants during its nearly 13 year reign on the market, we've decided to create a list of our personal favorites that debuted on the original hardw
Ironically, in this vein, the things I like most about Legend of Solgard are the things that would dissuade more casual players from continuing throughout the game. The game's RPG-inspired progression system in-tandem with its role-playing turn-based strategy elements breath longevity into each facet of the game. In this regard, tried and true mid-core gamers will feel right at home. For every middle-aged Bubble Witch Saga player that Legend of Solgard may lose due its various mechanics, it will gain just as many die-hard Clash of Clans fans. For every possible critique that one could lobby against the different systems and mechanics working in Legend of Solgard , the MOBA game tier list would almost certainly be less fun--or at the very least--less addicting without t
Pokemon Red and Blue were more than just a fad (as is evident by the continued success that every new iteration is met with), but there was something special about the original Game Boy titles that still manage to resonate with gamers all these years later. Besides, it was the first time that many gamers were hit with one of the most challenging decision of their lives: Bulbasaur, Squirtle or Charman
Late game bosses also spawn in the forms of the drake, which gives a buff depending on the amount of them killed, along with gold, and Baron Nashor which gives a temporary buff to all alive players that is usually used to steam roll the opposing team. With monsters and bushes in mind, you should also learn the proper escape routes to take when running from single or multiple opponents, drawing them towards a prime counterattack position or merely avoiding their Jung
Following on from the previous point, you should setup Item Kits to quickly buy items at the start and during the match. Being able to click on your items within a second can save a teammate's live if they're in need of assistance. You used to easily be able to setup Item Sets, but that feature wasn’t used enough and was ditched, but can still be accessed if you use the earlier launcher. If you don’t want to use Item Kits, you should still keep a mental note of different k
Building off this simple framework is where Legend of Solgard begins to subvert the expectations of a mobile game. Underneath its cheery veneer of an easy-going match-three puzzle game lies a rigidly tough turn-based strategy game; a game where players continuously have to be aware of their surroundings and consider their next move. Throughout the beginning of the game's campaign, Legend of Solgard consistently introduces new enemies, each with their own different special abilities. For example, as you progress through the beginning of the game's campaign, you start to encounter enemies that buff those around them and others that will replicate themselves if not killed in a certain time per
Most early video games, such as Pong in 1972, featured multiplayer modes. This was likely due to expectations from analog games, which were almost always played in person with friends and family. Early multiplayer modes were often turn-based, co-op arcade games—when one player died, another would take over or continue until all lives were extinguis
After being named the Game of the Year at the 2015 Game Developers Conference, it looks like Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor may be getting a Game of the Year edition. While there’s not yet any official word on the edition, Warner Bros. did submit the game for a Game of the Year classification to the Australian Classification Bo
Despite the advancements in mobile gaming achieved through smartphones, the Nintendo Switch, and PlayStation Vita, the reality of the current gaming landscape disproves the notion that there will ever be an overarching, "correct" way to experience games. Conversely, the opposite has become true. Earlier this month Mat Piscatella of The NPD Group concluded that approximately 70% of people that own a Nintendo Switch also own a PlayStation 4 or an Xbox One. It's become more evident than ever that the ubiquitous electronic devices that fill up our lives all have their own distinct uses, offering experiences that are tailor-made for t
LoL is all about adapting to the battlefield, your runes and masteries might be setup for Mid lane, but if you’re called to swap lanes or face a champion that pushes you out, you need to be able to adjust and win. The same goes for items, but these can be easily changed mid-game, though sometimes at a loss of gold and t
