Babala is simplicity gone ballistic. It`s played on a basic grid and its defining features are mercifully few in number; a child could pick up on it readily. It has variety but isn`t cluttered with myriad rules or countless varying characters; nor difficult controls nor complex readouts. But don`t be fooled, because this game gets tough as nails to beat as the levels progress. It`s all in the level designs.
A meaningful scoring system is incorporated and Web high score posting will be in the next release. Your crusade will consist of 200 discrete campaigns, the first 10 being a tutorial. Gameplay is strictly at your own pace, it`s no test of reflexes.
Babala is a simple little Arcade/Logic/Strategy round-based war game of sorts, not lacking in cute animations. The enemy legions `Balabaks` are arrayed on the field, amongst barrier items and booby traps. Intently, they`ll dog your every turn. You`ll have but limited moves plus shots allowed during your each round, 6 or 7 tops: choose as you go from the game`s set of 5 maximal trade-offs. `Shot` is either projectile or mine, assuming you`re so armed.
Following your strokes, the enemy makes a measured advance. If he reaches you, you`re mugged, you lose... balabaks can`t shoot. There may be obstructions and certain rigged perils, critically situated, or remote ammunition stores that have to be acquired.
`Must be played to be appreciated: prodigious, often diabolical, never a shortage of variety and the unexpected. And uncannily, there seems always a way to best an earlier score, when you ambitiously replay a level.
In-game help is in English, Czech or German, as specified during installation. If not already present, requires download and install of free GTK+2 libraries (3.5MB). There`s a Linux version as well. |
