Invader Hunter

    Hey, everyone. I bought a game a couple of days ago. It is named Invader Hunter and it has been around for a while. I had started to buy it months ago when it came out but I read a review of it that was harsh and decided to wait until it went on sale. It is now on sale for 99 cents and I feel like that is a nice price. Here's the recipe.
    As a space marine at a space station you are sent out on missions by your commanding officer. The problem is, there are monsters that keep gaining access to the ship, like cockroaches, except they are huge, ugly and powerful. My personal favorite is a big goon that looks like rocks cobbled together. When he hits the floor, red stalagmites appear all over the room. Seems like an unusual gift. Ha, ha. There is another bad guy, pictured above, that I had to seek a place of sanctuary from. I can't recommend the view from down there, but at least I stayed alive long enough to use my rolling ability and eventually take him down.
    Fortunately, you can equip yourself with cool weapons, like an Orc gun, a Cherry gun or a Cobalt gun. Your aim automatically goes to the enemy when you press the button, then, when you release the button, the gun fires. There are special helmets, gloves etc., which you can buy with the generous supply of in-game cash.
      The graphics of this game are exceptional. The animations of the explosions are some of the best I've seen, with flashing lights that roll inside the explosion cloud as the enemy hits the deck. One monster flings out a grid of electrical charges which lays around the room, about three feet off the floor. It will rock your world.
      I must say that there are some hesitations in the flow of the game with my I-Pad 3, but overall, it plays okay.
     I like that you have an easy level to select. I like the fact that there are zero in-app purchases. It is a fun game and definitely worth the sale price of 99 cents. Is it as deep or as smooth as Nova 3? No, but it is a worthy buy and will give you a pleasant evening, I think.
    Check back later as I have a couple of other games to talk about. I'm CE Wills.

Shadowgun: Killing The Windbreaker

    Hey, everyone. I thought it might be a good time for a bit of an update on the riveting game called Shadowgun. Consider this your spoiler alert and tune out if you want to.     Once you get past the dreaded Driller, things get better but you are certainly not out of the woods. You will want to make sure you keep a full clip in your gun as you stroll through the realm of the evil and crazy Dr. Simon. But hey, you're John Slade, the Shadowgun, and wherever you set your foot is the place to which your authority extends.      I love the way that some of the barriers disintegrate under the impact of bullets. I didn't learn this at my mother's knee but I darn sure know it now. I have learned that there are certain places it is good to plan on using the rocket launcher. Keep your stock of those filled. There are these transporter guys who are aggressive punks. The only way they respect you is if you kill them, so that's the way I roll. As you know by now, their strategy

Shadowgun: Crushing The Driller On Level 4

      Hey, everyone. Let's talk about the game called Shadowgun, the I-Pad game with which I have a love-hate relationship. Most of you who made it past the evil Cyber Lobster are doubtless locked in a death struggle with the Driller at the end of level 4. At this point you have been in the cave for a long time. The Driller breaks through the rock wall and chases you through the tunnel as you try to shoot out the green lights which slows the Driller down. If you are slick enough to shoot out all the lights and emerge from the cave, a rolling door crashes on the Driller and crushes his aggravating carcass. I have tried and failed to beat the Driller at least 250 times. I hate the Driller to the heights and depths my soul can reach. I hate it like a plague. I hate it with intensity of feeling. I hate it like a rich man hates taxes. Excuse me, I got carried away.       We had a big dinner here at the green retreat and my friend Trevor was here today. He is my gaming consultant. I tol

To Kill A Lobster (Shadowgun)

    Hey, everyone. I had not planned on posting tonight but I have to make something right. I gave Shadowgun a good review last night but I didn't do it justice. Tonight I got past the vicious Cyber Lobster and went on to play a lot more. This is a terrific game! Last night I would have rated it 4 stars out of 5. Tonight I give it 5 stars out of 5. By the way, here's a spoiler alert. If you don't want to know how to kill the lobster, don't read any further. I say this because I had several people come to the blog that were looking for the silver bullet ( figure of speech from old Dracula movies, not literal weapon for lobster) to kill this behemoth.      When the monster appears, he starts firing missiles at you out of his mechanical mouth. Don't run and hide behind a barrier. Get close to him and run back and forth, dodging missiles until you can blast the lime colored ball of light that appears periodically over his head. I suspect that this is his AI, but Cybe
