That Amazon Lady

       Hey, everyone. Good to see you. No, I can't see you, really. I did hear, just the other day, that certain government agencies can turn on the speaker of your cell phone and use it as a microphone so they can hear every word you say. But I am here to talk about a game I bought the other day called Justice League. It is about those Superheroes from DC Comics who keep the universe relatively safe.
     This game came out a couple of months ago and was released at the price of $2.99. A couple of weeks ago I bought it for 99 cents, on sale. Although it is certainly worth the 99 cents and was probably fairly priced at $2.99, I leave the game fairly disappointed. It could have been so great!
    You start out by choosing a character to be your avatar as you battle an alien invasion. You see the following characters: Batman, Wonder Woman, Superman, Flash and Green Lantern. Here's the first irritation; you can only play as Superman, Batman or Wonder Woman unless you want to buy 1500 power points.
    So, I started out with Wonder Woman. Don't say it, please. She is good-looking. How is it possible that Amazon.com has failed to see her value as a natural spokeswoman for their company? She is the world's foremost Amazon.
     So, you start your battle. Wonder Woman has her magic Lasso and her super-strength. You use Wonder Woman to beat up the bad guys, finish levels, level up and manage a complex system of management and rewards.
You smash crates to find glowing blocks of health and power.
     Another thing which I don't like is this: If you play as Wonder Woman for a while, then you want to play Batman, you have to start over at Level 1.
     Also, the in-apps seem a bit pushy and the whole power up, upgrade scene is more complicated than it has to be. The graphics are not eye-popping and the gameplay is limited in scope. The characters seem a bit smaller than they need to be, as well.
     True, it's fun to tap a button and see Superman rise into the air. Then you use the directional pad to guide him in flight, with his fist extended, like the comics.
    So, you start your battle. You can spend in-game coin on upgrades like Power, Focus and Will. There are things like Health, Energy, Attack, Defense, Critical unit, health recovery, and other things to improve.
      By the way, you can select Active Skills and Passive Skills.
     Overall, I think that the game was okay. It is still 99 cents, as we speak.
     I'm Ce Wills. Avengers Assemble! Ooops, wrong group of heroes. Go Justice League!.

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
