Greg Melvill-Smith talks to Connor Herman, software support Technician at Work Group Crew, about "War of the Worlds", an exciting new game.
Greg:
Connor, what is it? Is it a straight, shoot it up, blood, murder, kill, tear-up game? Or is it a little different?
Connor:
It is a little different, it is a strategy game. You go around and basically control either the Martians or the
Humans. You have to decide who you want to beat and how to beat the other guy. The aim is to take his forces, crush his vehicles, take over his world.
Greg:
Ok, lets play a game.
Connor :
You have the Martians with long tentacles, that is what you are controlling and that is home. You have your guys who fight, guys who look for people to fight, scouts and then you have your diggers. The guys arrive in a ship, start moving anything in their way, just force, fire and shoot.
Our guys can basically go in any direction, when they come across humans, war begins!
Whatever tank, building machine, obstacle that is in the way, one press of a button and they are history!
Greg:
So effectively, with the game you continue in this process, beating them all the way, until you have captured the entire continent?
Connor:
Yes, that is the idea and you're not limited to the amount of guys you have initially.
Greg:
So, if you're into strategy games then this is the one to get. If you're into more mindless games, go into it and try anyway!
Connor:
Well. You can go into this as a "mindless game" but you will just get totally and utterly eradicated, that's all!
