Laika: The age of the blood is well in the area named Metroidvania.
Which is different from the name of many Metroidvania, which focuses on playing games rather than telling stories or using more indirect stories Laika: Age through bloodTale of Survival in the world that is cool and unfavorable is one of the strongest draws of the game. Players are introduced to Laika and her world quickly, which is a place that lives by various animals on the edge of the extinction. The birds have dangerous and cruel appearances that have genocide with other species in LaikaThe world of the world and the game does not suspend when it comes to revealing the horror of the war and the cost of finding revenge. Laika Not only including its plot is the reason why the game is violent (Of course,) but instead of encountering a wider philosophical displeasure about war and the pursuit of revenge without results when people are pushed to the edge and Became a monster that they made a mistake
The game is a great job to send this story through direct and indirect storytelling devices, while Laika traveled around the world and met with other survivors. With both the characters and the world they live in. Prepared. The dialogue was wisely written and did not pull any punch when talking about revealing the despair and the deaths of the residents in the world. But there is a moment of agility and heart that shows LaikaThe world of worth fighting The closest analog is like Mad Max Meet FarmAnd the brainwashing gang works to create commendable jobs and deliver things that may be revenge. It's not exaggerated to say that there is a time in Laika That has a truly impact and will be affected like emotional punch, especially after spending a lot of time to get to know these characters and their fights, both groups and people.
Laika motorcycles change the traditional Metroidvania game.
The two pole of Metroidvania is the fight and survey and the use of motorcycles as the main method of transportation. Laika: Age through blood Unlike other games in the category of LAIKA motorcycle rely on each time she went out to give a developer license to get a lot of creativity with the design and design of the world, especially when general ability, such as Jumping or coming down to the platform is impossible. But players will have to use it carefully about the loop-deal, and shotguns in the air to go to an area that cannot be accessed earlier, not only the fun environment to explore by each person. Acting as his own tiny test Certainly LaikaThe unique exploration and connection components of changing the system, swinging, ability and traditional progress, which may be expected to be found in Metroidvania.
While the upgrades are required. Laika can search or buy. (Such as the turbo hike and other expansion to her fighting tools and platforms), most of the progress in Laika Come to upgrade and collect resources There are about two dozen different resources for materials. Laika can shoot and gather every time she comes back to visit the area. The exchange of these parts with a steel beating (Including the game currency, Birds Viscera) rewarding new weapons or upgrades as an existing thing, opening a new channel of players in a way they deal with the exciting fight of the game.
While riding her motorcycle, Laika is a power of destruction that cannot be passed. LaikaHigh -points of physics that control motorcycle management allows players to pull the air that is necessary to fight the Backflip Reloads. Laika's current weapon while turning the front can swipe the bullet back to the enemy when performed perfectly. Swipe is also possible while on the floor with 180 degree rotation of the motorcycle by pressing only one button, which is an important technique not only But for fighting Laika There is in the shop
When all clicks, nothing in the Metroidvania category, such as Laika: Age through blood– Which says that the learning curve that will arrive there is steep and continuously punished everything in Laika Will kill the players in one attack, making each time passing the brush with death with a slim edge for death errors Laika Often, especially in the beginning and the use of “Running” to pull the missing supplies at the dead point, meaning that players may be stuck repeatedly in the same area to hang the valuable currency. Although the satisfaction of the challenging part of these parties is equal to the feeling of overcoming the challenging boss in the game with spirit, most of the fruit juice is worth the squeezing.
In particular, this is true for the supervisor of the game, each of which has been well designed. But only a lot of dependence on experiments and errors These fights every time use the great tools to eliminate Laika and want players to put all the skills that they have learned to practice important returns when you solve the “puzzle” problem of fighting methods. That each person should fight But again, the one killing that is the main element of LaikaThe battle of the fighting wants the players to deal with each boss in the “perfect” running, which makes things a little mistake that is wrong.
Some problems hold Laika: The age of blood comes back from greatness.
when Laika: Age through blood Firing at all the cylinders, it is not uncommon to achieve the fun of Zen's flow in the way you move from one screen to the next screen. Easily eliminate enemies and return through the air. But in the end, mistakes will cause death and restart. Die games are often events that are often able to avoid disappointing players by allowing them to return to their actions quickly while Laika: Age through blood It is not allowed to be reborn quickly on other platforms. When loading that is extended in the switch, resulting in each death drawing out the experience significantly. And in a dead game that has occurred as often as ever LaikaLong load time to return to actions to kill the feeling of the driving force that the experience will give
Some areas are also struggling to keep the smooth frame in the switch version of LaikaEspecially during the tense period, which has a lot of enemies or giant boss that will be down During the time when Laika The most needed from the switch player is usually struggling to keep up with the lack of performance and stuck, which often means the difference between life and death. These games are not often enough to destroy the experience. But they will deviate the attention of what has been designed smartly and unique to Metroidvania.
My experience playing through Laika: Age through blood The switch takes 26 hours, which is longer than the majority of the players, very an average of 18 hours. It is worth noting that I spent my time when he was close to the confrontation, choosing to deal with each part systematically with a lot of start and stop instead of going into the blaze.
The switch does not have a shortage of a great Metroidvania name and Laika: Age through blood Worth the time of the owner of the switch that is a fan of the type But just because Laika It is an easy suggestion that does not mean that it will be everyone's taste, and of course it is necessary to use a lot of players to get the most benefit from experience.
