Planètes Folles
Sunday, 9 August 2009

Last time I have introduced the game Country Story from Playfish. Now I will introduce Crazy Planet. It isn't really a recent game, since I see that I have already 47 players on the infamously friend list. This game is similar like those old games when your parents had played before. The game where two cannons are placed in different altitudes. The task is to hit the cannons down, by adjusting the curves and power. After that the cannonball will be shot.
Same theoretical can be applied in this game. However this game will be rather easier, as the curve has been shown on the screen. So players will actually know where will the projectile lands. Each monster on the planet has a life. So does your weapon damages them. There are different kinds of weapons. Each of them has to researched before you can upgrade them, which requires resources. The resources are separated into two categories, minerals and gems. Minerals can be collected daily, by visiting to your friends' planet. While gems you have to accquire them by completing the quest. Each galaxy has a number of planets, each providing different gems once you have completing them. You can complete the quest as many times as you can. Each planet has a medal to be earned.

As you leveled up, you can hire your friends to be in your team to help you attack in battle. At times there will alien abducting your friends, and you have to rescue them. If not your friend will be forever in the alien planet. You can hire up to 3 friends into your team. You can carry up to two weapons into the battefield. That means if you have 3 friends, you can actually carry different kinds of weapons. Some quest might need you to gather a team with low level in order to get the medal. There will be no penalty if you disband your friend to hire a low level in.
When upgrading your weapons, the requirements for each upgrading will be more expensive as it needs more gems and minerals. In Crazy Planets, you are allowed to trade your gems and minerals with your friends. You can trade gems for minerals, and vice versa. The amount of gems or minerals can be manually set by you. So there isn't really a market to whether how much each resource cost. However as you noticed that they come in ratio as you play along. Chances of getting a topaz or gold will be hard. Gradually making to say that the cost value will be higher than others. More functions will appear once the game is out of beta. For example you can battle your friends in a multiplayer session soon.
Merci tout le monde...
