Warden is a lot of fun

I have been spending a bit of time playing Warden. This game is fun. I knew it was a good one when I walked into a room and had a load of enemies to attack. This is amazing that this is the author's first game. The thing has field of view, multi-colors, and all that jazz.

Instead of hit points you seem to have stamina. Great. Let's keep that stamina up. I found after a while that my stamina was always going down. I guess I need to kill to keep up the stamina. I liked that even though I died, I got resurrected in the same place to fight on.

The only problem I found was that the window was too tall and did not fit on my laptop screen. So I could not see the messages that were scrolling down on the bottom of the window. Otherwise bravo for Warden.

Lost in the Infiniverse

I tried out Infiniverse. I liked that there was an online version available. Guess it must be a web game. It looks like we are no longer in a dungeon. We are in the universe. Or more precisely, we are in the Infiniverse.

The colors and hues of the game are really nice. I felt more like the USS Enterprise than a roguelike warrior. There were a lot of stats regarding the areas of the Infiniverse I was exploring.

One more thing was odd about this game. I did not run into any enemies. I was expecting to battle some monsters, or at least some other space ships. No luck. I tried going in one direction for a while. Turns on the Infiniverse is not infinite. There is an end. Still no enemies.

The message at the top of the screen directs me to get the ancient alien knowledge. Perhaps this is just a space quest game.

Death of Bizz

My character Bizz started to get really powerful. So I decided to have him dive quickly into the dungeon. He was character level 32. So I thought he could go much deeper than dungeon level 26 where I was staying at.

At first things just got a little more difficult. I found that I could defeat singular enemies. But when multiple enemies colluded, my health points got low real quick. I figured that all I needed to do was to exercise caution.

Then the unthinkable happened. Some type of bat from off the screen (or in an unlighted area) started breathing on me. It poisoned me. And it also took a whopping amount of hit points each time the bat breather. Before long I was dead.

Ouch. I had spent a lot of time bringing Bizz up. He had achieved some really nice items like two rings of intelligence +5 each. My overall intelligence gave me a whopping 250 mana points. I am not sure how I am going to recover. Perhaps I shall let the Borg have a shot to start up another character. More on that later.
