Game Review
We have Battalion Commander by IriySoft here. Battalion Commander is an addictive, action-packed bullet hell shooting flash game. It plays like a linear top down shooter where enemies come at you from up top as you keep going forward. Battalion Commander shares a lot of similarities to their other game in this sub-genre, Band of Heroes.

You play as a lone commando trapped within enemy territories, and as you keep going forward you can rescue POWs from cages which increase your squad and firepower. Mainly riflemen, snipers and grenade shooters! Along the way you face all sorts of enemies from their own riflemen, machine gunners, snipers, bunkers, towers, huge tanks, helicopters and airstrikes. Enemies wear red Camo while friendlies wear green making it easy to differentiate between the two. If the leader ever dies, the battle is over. You will gain experience and rise in rank from Private to Colonel.

Increased rank gives you more base hit points, allows you to command a large troop of allies and gives you access to the wide variety of upgrades. You can upgrade yourself to have better weapons/powers as well as your squad to fire faster and other perks. The game’s mechanics are easy-to-understand; only require your mouse to move your troops as they automatically shoot. Activating air support with a simple mouse click. The objective is very clear. Basically, get to the end of the level which turns out to be easy as you continue to upgrade your commander.

In my conclusion, I find Battalion Commander to have great graphics, great shooting, smooth gameplay. One flaw is that there are quite a lot of unnecessary periods of rest between "waves" of enemies that got kind of uneventful. I am just saying the pacing is a slightly off. Otherwise, definitely worth playing through though! A very nice way to kill time which I spent an hour or so completing. ^^

Battalion Commander Walkthrough
Battalion Commander gets easier over time to win as you progress and unlock more upgrades. For me, I will equip myself with Shotgun and Napalm Wave. Simply reasoning, because spread bullets is more effective to kill and Napalm Wave have fairly short cooldown time. I win the game at after upgrading Nanobots according to my recommended build.

If you've noticed, I leave Minigun, Rocket Launcher, Heroic Dash and Fast Start at the very end of the build. Personally, I find Minigun and Rocket Launcher less useful than Shotgun. In my opinion, Heroic Dash is pretty terrible in practice... All the enemies are able to target, including behind them. While you and your allies are mostly just able to shoot straight ahead. "Heroic Dash" should be called as "Horrible Death". ^^ Fast start is actually quite useful but unable to toggle it off and may cause lag. I feel it's best to upgrade it last.

Pro-tip: A fast way to get quick cash and xp. Buy the Fast Start as soon as you can, when you start the mission, try it hit as many foot soldiers as you can. After your car explodes and you can collect all the dropped money and xp, quit the level and restart + repeat. Very fast way to get all the upgrade and ranks, however it's a grindfest.

Game Review
Do you love playing BattleOn or DragonFable? These are some games I used to play when I was in primary school. It feels nostalgic and I could recall back all the fun we had, with this old school RPG flash game called Arcane Weapon. I enjoyed playing it!

A four panel story board features a lonely man comes across the unknown Arcane Weapon. He unleashed beast from the Netherworld! Fight your way through these beasts by learning new moves and building up your rage to throw down a mega special attack. The game allows you to play very simple strategies, or think out complicated paths to combo the best damage per second output. Basically, you get stronger and stronger every fight. The problem with this, is that once max every single upgrade, you can't lose! It'll give you a sense of accomplishment when you beat a boss for the first time!

Personally, I find Arcane Weapon a decent game but its way too easy and short. It lacks severely on developments; Both character and story. I suggest adding a simple leveling system which unlocks certain skills and so on. For story development, more plots are needed and maybe animate the game such that, it looks like a quest-like adventure. There's a lot of potential and room for improvement in this flash game. I hope to see Arcane Weapon 2 or something! ^^

Berzerk Ball 2 Game Review & Walkthrough Guide

Berzerk Ball 2

Play Online: Berzerk Ball 2
Developer: Berzerk Studio
Genre: Distance, Upgrades

Game Review
I'm back! I'm reviewing on a flash game called Berzerk Ball 2, which is a sequel after the release of Home Run in Berzerk Land back in 2010. Berzerk Ball 2 is brought to us from Berzerk Studios, who has given us a lot of amazing games such as The Peacekeeper, Frantic Frigates and more.

If you didn't play the original Berzerk Ball then let me explain what Berzerk Ball 2 is all about. At its core, it is a fast paced upgrade and launcher game in which, the point of the game is to hit an overweight geek as far as possible with your every growing assortment of weird bats; From a baseball bat to a wicked awesome grim reaper scythe. And it doesn't stop here! One of the biggest things that stands out to me about Berzerk Ball 2 is the leveling system. Each member of your team gains levels independently and gain a skill point which, when upgraded, give you better nerd bashing abilities. The further you slam your nerd the more you unlock content.

Soon you find yourself unlocking a sub-category called mini games that add even more fun into the mix. A total of six, and by completing one will allows you some gain additional skill points, get help from non-used teammates, and geek costume options. The fun just doesn't stop! Let's move on into the actual game play, it's not a game that requires much learning which is a great thing, because it's accessible to everyone from little kids to your grandparents. I never ran into a single issue with the controls for this game. Straightforward controls! In my opinion, I only find the pacing of the game is a bit slow and harsh in the beginning. However, escalate quickly when you start leveling up and buying stronger weapons.

I really can’t say enough about this game. Berzerk Ball 2 is a fun, challenging and mind-bogglingly addictive game packaged with several different modes to help ensure plenty of replayablilty. I would suggest this game to all flash game lovers and gamers on the go. Definitely one of my favorites, no doubt.

Berzerk Ball 2 Walkthrough
For me, I prefer choosing Bed as my hitter. He basically is one of most outstanding hitter among the six. Start off by hitting your best, then meteor smash when the geek is in the air to gain speed. Use hell raiser when the geek gets near the ground, and repeat using meteor smash and hell raiser. Somehow, I find Bed has the best recharge for hits.

Save all your cash and purchase a BaseBall-Bar, a Bronze Lucky Coins and a Silver Cornucopia. From here onwards, you are already halfway through the game. You are actually earning more cash and XP with the same amount of effort. Complete the mini-games whenever you can. Try aiming for gold in all challenges/mini-games, you will love the teammate power-ups as rewards! Buy better weapons and repeat the cycle.

Once you have all the best equipment from the shop, save up your cash for forging. Forging a material will give you random weapons with different stats. The higher your forging level, the better equipment you get! Spam bronze material and level up to the fullest, then purchase silver or gold material! Equip them and beat your previous record. ^^

Game Review
Daniel Merlin Goodbrey, the creator of A Duck Has An Adventure is back with his second interactive story adventure called Icarus Needs, in which you play as Icarus. Icarus has fallen asleep after playing videogames and become trapped inside a surreal dream world that’s part video-game and part comic strip. What’s worse, somehow his girlfriend Kit has got trapped inside the same dream.

Now Icarus needs to locate Kit, escape the clutches of the King of Squirrels and find some way back to the waking world. Gameplay is very minimal. Using the arrow keys to navigate through each little panel of the comic-strip to solve simple puzzles... In fact, Icarus Needs is very similar to his last game, however now in a more puzzle adventure style. Honestly, I find Icarus Needs really cool and fun. The comic frame style was rather a rather creative approach to a game. Very different from what I usually play!

Sadly, the lack of branching and single ending make it feel rather short, as compared to A Duck Has An Adventure with 16 different endings. With multiple path possibilities that create different endings depending on your choices. This would give a good amount of replay value that's missing here. I'm asking for too much! ^^

The Peacekeeper Game Review & Walkthrough Guide

The Peacekeeper

Play Online: The Peacekeeper
Developer: Berzerk Studio
Genre: Shooter, Action

Game Review
Now here’s a new addictive and a humorous flash game that shooter defense fans will enjoy. Being one the last member of the Peace de Resistance, what will do when you’re surrounded by thousands of vicious enemies? Bingo! You slaughter everything in their path to get it. Just to safely ensure that your enemies don't show up and hog all the damn peace!

You are playing as a lone Peacekeeper stationed in your Peace-Ditch, and nothing keeps the peace better than shooting them right in the face! Simply point and click to fire at the waves of invading enemies. You'll duck down into the ditch whenever you are not firing and roll you around the ditch to avoid more close-up weapons. You can also lob grenades, heal packs and EMPs to help you clear. Remember, Peace at any cost!

Killing enemies or completing achievements earns you some valuable cash, which can be ultimately spent on upgrades in-between waves. Definitely plays a big part which keeps things interesting. The Peacekeeper is a bloody good time; the simple gameplay makes it playable and challenging enough for all ages. Overall, fantastic dialogue, good game mechanics but nothing too complicated, full of greatness. I enjoyed playing it, laughed out loud a few times

I have been telling people for years that games are not violent, they are peaceful. Thank you for proving this once and for all. This is the most "peaceful" game I've ever played. Why? Throws a Grenade and kills 5 enemies. Screams "Violence is not the answer!" :D

The Peacekeeper Walkthrough
You should always kill the suicide bombers and the flame thrower soldier first, these units dealt the most damage to you. And after purchasing Gun Canon for spread bullets effect, press and release your mouse for maximum damage. Single bullet is bad, multiple bullets is good! Here onwards, you shouldn't face any reloading or ammo problems.

Reaching stage 30, you will meet the 3 Bosses you've fought previously! If you have trouble clearing the level, here's the guide. Kill the them in this order: Axe-Throwing Boss first, Missile Launching Boss second, and Shield Boss last. You should spam E.M.P as soon as possible when available and drop the Axe-Throwing Boss low. Take a close look on your health, if it drops below 25-30%... Just heal yourself with no hesitation. Once the Axe-Throwing Boss is dead, peace is yours! ^^

Pro Tip: When you get the health pack, try to use it to max out your health towards the end of the game so you can get the full gold reward.

Bois D'Arc Game Review & Walkthrough Guide

Genre: Shooter, Defense

Game Review
FireBeastStudio, the maker of of Evilgeddon Spooky Max is back with a new shooter and defense flash game called Bois D'Arc! Bois D'Arc, unfamiliar word to me, has a meaning behind it. It's actually a French term for "wood of the arc" or "bow wood" where it is mainly used to make bows. I bet you already figured out what is kinda going on... Yup, you are defending your castle against all kinds of evil monsters using just your bow!

Here's the story, so there was a magical tree of life that grants balance to the land of Sedonia. It's known as Bois D'Arc. However, the power of evil spirit emerged mysteriously and caused terror to everyone. The King decided to borrow Bois D'arc power by making a weapon from its wood. A mystical bow that holds supreme power as the dweller holds it. The future lies in your hand... Beforehand, you've to pick your ranger, which comes in different set of skills and stats. Ranging from either low to high damage and speed. They'll be placed on top of your castle ready to defend. The core mechanic of Bois D'Arc is to hold, aim then shoot. Clearing a stage will earn you stars which can be spent on upgrading your character.

After playing, I admit this flash game is pretty challenging, thanks to a few factors. First of all the aiming, the gimmick of the game but learning how to hit is sometimes frustrating. The trickiest part is of course getting the angle of the shot right with the correct amount of power. Next is some stages are somewhat poorly balanced. Because stars are hard to get, and once you start having difficulties beating some levels those difficulties add up. Over time, players may find it grind intensive and rage quit as a result! Lastly, the developer could resize the power gauge larger and place above the character/or cursor. This is just my personal preferences. ^^

To conclude, I wasn't really disappointed with FireBeastStudio's Bois D'Arc; It was a decent and graphically well-designed flash game but can be better! There is potential in it.

Bois D'Arc Walkthrough
Here is my analysis between each ranger. The green one by far the best pick for me. He does insane damage over time due to his Venomous Arrowhead. Stronger at shooting air units and weakening groups, but harder to handle the huge mobs of small weaker enemies. Blue felt strong at hitting single target and dealing with groups of medium enemy. He cleans flying units, spiders and everything else in a sweep. Red felt like he was the best at crowd control especially against the spiders, but I always had trouble dealing with air enemies that wiggle around too much. + 1 for green ranger for me!

Pro-Tip: In the game, the arrows always fly in a curve manner. To improve on your accuracy, aim well above the enemy! This will ensure a better chance of hitting a target. :)

Game Review
Yes, you're right! I'm back. In the past one month, I was totally busy with my school work and had to leave for some personal matters. Everything happened too sudden for me, I couldn't cope with my time to do any preparations. Finally managed to squeeze some time to do a quick game review on Kitt's Kingdom today, and probably some other day on walkthrough guide.

The Kingdom of Felis is once peaceful and prosperous. This all changed when the brutes of the Canine Empire ravaged The Lands of Felis. All hope seemed lost until a lone sergeant in the feline army rose up against the invading dogs. He is Sergeant Kitt... Waves after waves of opponents coming after you. Your main goal is fairly simple, to defend your tower and yourself at all costs. You can either choose to shoot from the safety of your tower, or engage in a close up fight while collecting the items they drop. That's one thing I really like about Kitt's Kingdom is the wide selection of guns to choose from. The shop sells shotgun, machine guns, and rocket launcher. You can also purchase upgrades to improve your base’s defense, hire mechanics to repair your tower, or build turrets as well.

I enjoyed the game, however it was far too easy and short for me. I managed to beat the game with a handgun and turrets only; Handgun is enough for most stages except the last one. I believe the developer should focus on adjusting the difficulty and bringing a better gameplay experience. Some welcome additions could be harder difficulty options and also an endless survival mode. Last, I will seriously appreciate to have a radar, showing where incoming enemies are. I have to run back and forth because I don't know which side of the map needs me the most, or on which side the enemies are closer to the fort.

Anyway, nice kitty! ^^

Kitt's Kingdom Walkthrough
My build is to buy left & right turret for each side as early as possible. Once you got those turrets ready, upgrade your pistol to the fullest; Reload first, strength second and clip size last. Then, focus on upgrading your turrets to the max on each side. Once you got them upgraded, you can leave it to do all the work on double sided waves.

Now, you will have the freedom to buy any guns of your choice. I will go for shotgun personally because fully upgraded shotgun out DPS both, the fully upgraded rocket launcher and minigun. The basic pistol with full damage and magazine is useful for much of the game when used to farm for shotgun ammo. If your tower is under attack, invest on level 1 mechanic. You should not need more than level 1 mechanic to repair the slight damage. Tower upgrades are not necessary. Focus on upgrading your turrets to maximum for each side.
