Inspired by Command & Conquer, War Commander is war-themed strategy game set in the post-apocalyptic world.  The game combines realistic graphics with flying ravens and bloody fighting, indicating that you will involve in the devastation across the world.

In the beginning, your goal is to seize back your base from a group of villains. During the fighting, you can just sit back and watch the troops killing all the enemies, or you can control the soldiers to attack the chosen targets. Once you’ve recaptured the base, you can build resource plants and military infrastructures to develop the strategic forefront. While your base is bustling with whatever buildings, you can also train your existing troops in the barrack or unlock new units in the academy. However, the soldiers who await orders in the map look so small that it is not easy to select the specified figure you want to command.

The core mechanics in War Commander is a big forward for you can attack your enemies in real-time combat. When opening the “War Room” in the Map, you can have a look at the random rivals in the list. Before launching a battle, you can scout the rival base for the construction and troops, and then jump into the attack. It is convenient that you won’t run into the unequal enemies by checking out the base first, and is also interesting that you can challenge the rival’s soldiers with artificial intelligence. Once you’ve destroyed the rival’s Commander Center, you win the fighting and loot resources like metals and oils.

Unfortunately, besides the real-time fighting, the combat in War Commander doesn’t have more mechanics such as tactical deployment, operation of combined units, battle skills, etc. Also, War Commander doesn’t allow you to form alliances to strengthen the firepower. To some extent, it is not so appealing to the true hardcore gamers as a RTS game.

Steep with Greek myths, Immortal King is set in an eventful background, in which the dominance of the Earth catalyzes unrelenting wars among three factions led by Zeus, Poseidon and Hades, rulers of the sky, the sea and the ghostdom respectively. Opting for a side to stand by, players then can recruit eminent heroes from ancient legends, train them and finally take them into grand wars.

As a warfare MMORTS, Immortal King reserves the classic concept of resource management and city construction, yet it manages to carry out the precious mechanic in its own way. Directly speaking, it simplifies the resource gathering. Instead of keeping a balanced warehouse storing several types, players can only keep an eye on one kind: Silver. With the single-resource system, the requirement to construct a building would be greatly lowered, yet the other side of the coin is that the concern for wise investment of it would be on the rise.

With regard to the core play of strategy in a battle, Immortal King promises the possibility that outnumbered troop may march into the embrace of victory by outclassing in military tactics. As to the room for strategic minds, let numbers speak for themselves: 137 types of heroes, 72 kinds of soldiers and 8 different forms of arrays. With those, players can not only build up different combinations of army but also dispatch them in the best marching shape to conquer varied battlegrounds.

And diversified choices are not only about army formation and array. While the regular confrontation is accessible, another Challenge mode provides an alternative combat style that would sweep players over into intense skirmishes. To triumph, one has to clear enemy-strewn areas one by one until seizure of all the fields; and for victors, munificent rewards like treasures and new heroes will be given away, making the intrepid fighting worthwhile. Apart from combat fought by single players, League wars that may involve an utmost 50-vs.-50 for control of farmland and silver mine will take players into a larger scale.

With great military might, political power and ‘silver’ sway, you can rise to be the Immortal King.

In the genesis of the universe, Goddess of Mother spread Crystal of Life to the planet to bring life to the planet later named Vidalia, in which nature-loving kind-hearted Elves in the forest built an altar to guard the Crystals. Afterwards, another race Human came into being and then brought the Undead back to life out of hostility resulted from covetous eyes on the Crystals. But the Undead soon got loose from the strain of humans, ambitious to seize the power of Crystals. To fray the vicious plot, Mages appeared and joined the chaotic wars in alliance with Elves and Humans. Finally, the Crystal broke into five shards, with four pieces in four directions and the last upon the altar. From the lore comes the Crystal Saga.

In Crystal Saga, five classes are included in the option list for players to choose from Knight, Rogue, Priest, Ranger and Mage, which differ from one another in appearance, attire and attribute. Knights unrivaled in tank and melee physique have exclusive access to the heaviest armor; Rogues are famous for their hit-and-run combat style full of stealth and invisibility; Priests known as supporting healers to resurrect companions; Rangers wielding bows, traps and magic to keep enemies at bay; and Mages unique to summon ice and fire wiping out mobs of opponents.

Based on the chosen class, players can learn related skills and excise them in various quests. While players have to fight their way through this risky world, they don’t have to fight alone, for potential companions are ranging from pets and mounts to friends and leagues. Pets can be gained from finishing quests, taming baby ones in Monster Island with the Taming Scroll or directly buying the purchasable from Mall; once captured, they can be trained helpful in light with different types to be offensive, defensive, supportive, agile or balanced in skill. As to mounts, all transformable, Turtles can be acquired since Level 15 while additional Fox and Hors are available at levels of 30 and 45 respectively.

Besides the helpers, equipment is another indispensable factor in combat. No matter which class is voted to, players of all five types are invariably equipped with Weapon, Offhand, Helmet and Armor, each in eight pieces with one per ten levels special in attribute, apart from the Glove, Boots and Necklace shared by all. Armed to teeth, players can rush into a wide range of activities, simple as delivery and escort or challenging as surviving the Blessed Bath, which take different time span to finish and also open to players of corresponding levels only.

“We feel that the mafia theme maybe easier to understand (ie: I know a hitman is a higher level than a thug, but I’m not quite sure that a wizard beats a dragon or elf). We’ve simplified the “mana” to be in game cost.” said Neil Haran.

And each card has a deploy cost. It’s a much more simpler way to play the game that actually can house some complicated strategies (as you get to higher levels of play). Neil Haran also confirmed to us that they have been preparing for new islands as well. The game on the surface may seem simple, but has a lot of depth as you get further along in the game.

Set against the factional Industrial era, City of Steam developed by China-based JWGames is a 3D fantasy role-playing web MMO that combines elements of combat and strategy. With the application of Unity engine, the 3D graphics of this game vividly depict a fantastic world where the real historical life overlaps with imaginative elements. Browser-based as it is, this game in fact requires the download and installment of a 3MB-sized files before entering the game.

In the persistent virtual game world, there inhabits five different races that include the most versatile Human beings, genderless Dwarf as the major furnace-controller, Magic-spelling Elves, Hulk-resembling green-skinned Orcs, and humanoid Semi-Elves. Born with special attributes, five races can choose from ten different professions listed as Arcanist, Channeler, Gunner, Warder, Bard, Berserker, Explorer, Mechanist, and Rogue with the first four types available in the beta test. Role-playing his/her favorite avatar, the player can become what one wants to be, no matter it is a wise leader, a healer or a furious warrior.

As to the main gameplay, the storyline of City of Steam draws inspiration from the New Epoch series of books including Medieval Fantasy, Urban Fantasy and Steam Age Fantasy, etc and combines all to conjure up an in-depth, immersive story. Following a series of adventurous quests, players will not only experience the fierce hack-and-slash in real-time combat but also give full play to diversified strategy commonplace in turn-based mode. Once chancing upon AI monsters, players can turn from the usual exploration state into combat mode, opting targeted tactics to tackle down specific monsters in accordance to mob attributes, and issuing individual or regional attacks to defeat them. In addition to the fast-paced action, players can also get access to random dungeons where they have chances to join interesting fights against skull-soldiers.

Of course, City of Steam also includes assistant systems to enhance gaming experience, such as a multi-leveled crafting system for players to forge advanced items as well as a replacement system that provides a sizable wardrobe to highly customize a unique character for each one. It has won positive reviews for its terrific 3D graphics and interesting gameplay; but to play is to believe, right? As it is now in beta testing period, it’s a perfect chance to check out whether it is your very game.

To begin with, you need to improve your influence by building residences. Building the trailers is the start, of course. Till now, I’ve got this feeling that Capital City has something in common with CityVille, another Facebook game with a theme of city-building. You’ll always have the given tasks of building, building the small objects to the whole city construction in the end. About your city, it’s barely anything but a land, but believe me, after the tutorials, your city will be filled with the residence and business areas, etc. It’s all simple except that you need to plan your building area with some wits and that’s all.
Here is the interface of the game, very clean and clear. Without too many instruction buttons, you can see the entire energy bar and values on the top of the interface, and your goals, and the influence data at the bottom. To name a few, supplies are used to build; cash and energy (to earn cash by building and managing the business units like restaurants or bars; energy shouldn’t be wasted anyway); and the XP is something you need to level-up, and you can earn some XP by building stuff.

Undoubtedly, level-up is another basic element in the same type of online games; while in Capital City, it mainly depends on the building. You may want to hear this: it costs you a certain amount of energy besides cash every time when you build something. And you can get a new title right after you reach a higher level.

And last point, because it’s on Facebook, so you will inevitably receive your friends’ SOS messages. They may be short of cash, energy or supplies and need your urgent help. So you can easily travel to their cities, admire their city-building and give them a hand.

In a word, I still feel that Capital City is a city-building game with a title of crime-themed. It’s obviously better than Mafia Wars, which is just a text game; and its special theme makes it a little advantageous than CityVille. The combination is good, so enjoy your Capital City!

Operation Gamma 41, (OG41), is designed by China-based ZQGame and published by German startup Just A Game. Players engaging in Operation Gamma 41 assume some missions and responsibilities.

Taking place in from 1939 to 1945, The Second World War left the most destructive widespread damage and ever biggest casualties in its wake, striking millions of innocent people.

The game has simple mouse-only click-to-move control scheme and semi-auto combat system. To attack the enemy, you click on your desired foe then his status bar including life gauge and energy gauge will appear on the upper part of interface. Then you move your character to approach the lock-on target and tap the skill icon on the lower portion of interface, your character will then execute the selected move automatically and repetitively until you cancel the lock-on by left-clicking again on any empty place or non-hostile object.
