Assassin’s Creed Shadows. Best One Yet

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Assassin's Creed Shadows

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is a stealth/action adventure game developed and published by ‘Ubisoft’. Assassin’s Creed Shadows is said to be coming out the 15th of November 2024 on the Xbox Series X, PC and PS5. X35 Earthwalker is looking for the assassin’s creed game that brings him back into the series. Assassin’s Creed Shadows is out here trying to be that game. Let’s take a look. [This G blog will be a different style as so much information on this game is already out]

Assassin’s Creed Shadows is set in Japan. So Assassin’s Creed fans finally get what they’ve been asking for, for years. Ubisoft had a lot of thinking to do concerning this game and what type of Assassin’s Creed game they wanted to make. What do we mean? Very simple. Assassin Creed has two types. Stealth focused and action focused. The earlier Assassin’s Creed games were clearly more stealth based. Hide, blend in, watch the movement of the enemies and make your move. Then escape after assassinating target. The action Assassin’s Creed games were mainly your character straight up facing all the foes in the open and besting them in combat with some crazy abilities. There was still stealth mechanics but most just got up in there and started swinging. 

X35 Earthwalker Assassin's Creed Shadows

Here’s the problem. Most of the older Assassin’s Creed fans have been calling for a return to stealth as the the most recent Assassin’s Creed games were all action really. So bring back stealth right? Well sales and money show that the most successful Assassin’s Creed games were the action ones. More players, more fame, more attention and more money. So many fans want the original but less popular but action makes the most money… which is the aim of EVERY business… making more money. So Ubisoft said screw it, let’s do both. This is the biggest strength and factor of Assassin’s Creed Shadows.

X35 Earthwalker Assassin's Creed Shadows

Assassin’s Creed Shadows has TWO protagonists. Primary main character is Naoe and secondary main character is Yasuke. Naoe is the assassin. So all the sneaking, hiding, stealth kills and being one with the shadows is her. Yasuke is actually a real person in history. The first black samurai in Japan. He is the all action guy. As he said, kick down the front door, just face the foes and smash them. This solves the problem. So now stealth players can pick Naoe and be all stealth as much as they want while action players can just five into the action, no hiding with Yasuke. So that should shit up all the complaining. 

In Assassin’s Creed Shadows, players can switch between both characters for the missions. So you could play through the whole game as Naoe for stealth then in your second play through got all action and vice versa. Or you can mix it up and change mission by mission basis. You can even be like Larry who played a whole mission with Naoe, failed at the very end and just switched to Yasuke for the replay and tear everyone up. It’s up to you. Players love having options. So this move ticks of multiple boxes.

X35 Earthwalker Assassin's Creed Shadows

X35 Earthwalker believes that Assassin’s Creed Shadows will be the best Assassin’s Creed game yet. The combat with Yasuke is detailed. There is dodging, the heaviest attacks ever, armour and destruction of armour pieces, special attacks, blocks and even parries. It’s a full combat system. Uasuke feels incredibly powerful and smashes through his foes. Almost unstoppable. Naoe is not just stealth but the best stealth. She can can use projectiles to take out light sources, creating more shadows and darkness for he to hide and move through. She can hide up on the ceiling with plunger like tools. She can breathe underwater thanks to a reed or similar tube that pokes up to the surface granting her air. Naoe has new mechanics. Both characters are powerful in their own unique ways and clearly effective. Don’t underestimate Naoe in a fight and don’t underestimate Yasuke’s versatility as he has more than one weapon.

X35 Earthwalker Assassin's Creed Shadows

Disgusting but expected is the amount of hatred Assassin’s Creed Shadows got all because of one black person… Yasuke. Same with Angrboda in god of war ragnarok. So much racism today and it’s from the usual suspects each time. Yasuke is a real person who became a samurai in japan. Majority of historical websites including Britannica has stated that he’s a samurai as well with text and other historical evidence. Yasuke is famous in Japan and is in many Japanese media from books and stories to animations and shows. He’s even portrayed and showed as a samurai warrior in other games like Nioh. No issues with Yasuke then but the moment he’s shown in assassin’s creed shadows, all the racists suddenly became Japanese historians and posted racist memes and drawings and used hateful speech on Facebook, X and instagram. disgusting but evil is predictable. There has even been some white people exposed for pretending to be Japanese online to attack yasuke. Even the top voices of a so called Japanese petition to cancel the game were both white guys… not even Japanese. Now there’s a Japanese senator or whatever who is going against the game… for what reason besides yasuke. The hate is real. X35 Earthwalker has podcast episodes explaining and debunking these foolish things. Also a youtuber made a video where he proved with Japanese text that Yasuke is a samurai. Check those out below:

First podcast episode – https://open.spotify.com/episode/1Nm27YHAuqEg6PW22N2YjG

Second podcast episode – https://open.spotify.com/episode/2MgFNXU6SWGpDeTxlh91M4

We checked out some Assassin’s Creed Shadows gameplay and it’s what we expected. Exploring Japan, standing up for the people, marking targets and getting information on said targets. Use a horse for traversing the place. The lighting in this game is impressive. It makes the moments sneaking around with Naoe more beautiful and intense. The flames and light sources are excellently done here. As the game gets closer to release date, animations , character interactions and details will be stepped up. The gameplay Ubisoft showed is obviously not the final product. Also Assassin’s Creed Shadows is not $130. That’s a lie. The ultimate edition is $130 while the standard is $70 like many other games. So much hate towards this game. It’s sad. This is the first Assassin’s Creed game in a long time that has actually interested us. Assassin’s Creed Shadows might be the game to bring us back in.

Overall Assassin’s Creed Shadows looks like it’s going to be a fantastic game. This will be the best Assassin’s Creed game. Both Assassin’s Creed styles and even completely new mechanics. Now the biggest factor will be the huge amounts of racist who are trying so hard to lead a campaign against this game. Ignoring those fools, Assassin’s Creed Shadows is going to be successful. It has all components needed for it. The developers ‘Ubisoft’ have done a fantastic job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an eye out for this game. Now Assassin’s Creed Shadows may have two protagonists but those two aren’t enough for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Creatures of Ava. Gotta Save them all

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Creatures of Ava

Creatures of Ava is a Creature Saver Action Adventure game developed by ‘Inverge studios‘ and published by ‘11 Bit Studios‘. Creatures of Ava is said to be coming out the 7th of August 2024 on the Xbox Series X/S and also PC through Epic Store, Steam and GOG. Creatures of Ava is another Xbox exclusive. X35 Earthwalker likes seeing unique games. Creatures of Ava is coming on a special day. Let’s take a look. 

Creatures of Ava is set on a vibrant planet called Ava where these cool creatures are the fauna. They live here and do their things. There’s also other intelligent life here as well. These inhabitants are called Naam. Players control Vic. A 22 year old adventurer/friend of animals. Everything is colourful, friendly, beautiful and full of life. Of course things don’t stay like that, otherwise we wouldn’t have that much of game now would we. 

X35 Earthwalker Creatures of Ava

Ava is being poisoned and ruined by an unknown infection, called the withering, that’s spreading through the planet. This infection affects both the creatures of Ava and the environment itself. In this way does Creatures of Ava reminds us of The Gunk. When you handle and et rid of the infection, the environment is cleansed and you watch it turn back to being colourful and healthy again, just like in The Gunk. This moments are always satisfying to watch. So you can see what’s going on here. In Creatures of Ava you must save… the Creatures of Ava.

Now some people call Creatures of Ava or describe it as pokemon for Xbox which is false and just lazy clickbait titles for those extra views. There’s too many differences. Oh and it’s definitely not Palworld without guns. Pokemon is monster catching while Creatures of Ava is creature saver/taming. Creatures of Ava hasn’t got Ava balls or Creature spheres. Players, as Vic, must approach and befriend the Creatures of Ava. Gain their trust and they will help you our on your adventure using their physical traits. There also isn’t really any creature on creature battles.

X35 Earthwalker Creatures of Ava

Players must heal and save the creatures, not harm them. You get weapons that cleanse creatures to free them from the infection rather than damage and beat them down. It’s a different approach and a different way of doing things. You aren’t a trainer or tamer, you’re an adventurer. there’s no sports or champion or competition. These are just animals who live on this planet and going about their normal survival. So respect and see Creatures of Ava for what it is. 

X35 Earthwalker Creatures of Ava

Now there is combat but it’s against the infected creatures and you aren’t damaging them but instead healing /cleansing them. You have to help them not beat them up. Now we have identified 4 different ecosystems each filled with their own life. Use your flute to help tame over 20 different creatures. Remember they are still wild. Good thing Vic has the right tool for the job. A special or almost magical, in some way, flute. Play a nice tyne and see how they react.

X35 Earthwalker Creatures of Ava

We checked out some Creatures of Ava gameplay and it’s what were expected. This planet Ava has its own secrets and players have to solve them and learn what’s going on for real. Vic herself is her own person and has a past of her own. Hopefully her past doesn’t come to trouble her… right? There’s quite a blend going on. Action concerning their combat and the help of creatures in your adventure. There’s the heavy exploration checking out the planet and the distinct ecosystems. There’s also secrets and mysteries as it’s a strange world. So there should be lots to do and different things to explore.

Overall Creatures of Ava looks like a great game so far. The Xbox is getting another good treat. This game has done quite a lot well. We do have some concerns. We hope there will be a large variety ion creatures to help. even if some overlap and do similar things but with some differences. Also the character Vic seems cool but she has the typical female character generic body shape. Developers need to learn and stop being cowards and boring. Add some variety. Her hair is real cool and it’s great to see more black characters but she’s black… add a bit more curves. She literally has no booty. Fix that. Otherwise this is looking like a unique adventure. The developers ‘Inverge Studios’ have done a great job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker are keeping an eye on this game. Now Creatures of Ava may have a vibrant and alive planet but it’s too dead for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Age of Water. Submerged World

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Age of Water

Age of Water is an Open World Adventure Massive Multiplayer Online game developed by Three Whales Studio and published by ‘Gaijin Network‘. Age of Water is said to be coming out the 18th of April 2024 on the Xbox Series X, PS5 and PC. X35 Earthwalker loves wonderfully done open worlds in gaming. Age of Water is said to be unforgiving… we doubt that. Let’s take a look. 

Age of Water has a simple to understand story. Ir’s post apocalyptic so you already know something big has happened and the world is in a bad state. The whole world is submerged. People live in settlements and homes they built on top of what ever is above the water. Survival is the top priority here. Platers control a sea captain. Lead your boat through a “unforgiving” world. Explore, fight, trade and mine.

X35 Earthwalker Age of Water

Games like Age of Water normally haver lots for players to do and a lot going on. Since Age of Water is also a MMO, we can expect co-operation with other players to help conquer the seas sort off. We hear there will be storms and off course hostile groups on the oceans. Expect to encounter people on small boats while some have warships. So players must pick their battles wisely. What we hope for though are additional threats but in the ocean itself. We truly hope there are actual dangers like sharks, maybe giant squid or depending on how real world they want the game to be, maybe something more fictional.  

X35 Earthwalker Age of Water

Players will get involved in trades. Sell some artifacts that you find. Maybe straight up take someone else’s boat for yourself. You can also build your own too. On the business side of things players should aim to mine the the resources found on the ocean bottom. Not only is it resources but it’s the way to learn some secrets and uncover the mysteries in Age of Water.

X35 Earthwalker Age of Water

We checked out some Age of Water gameplay and it’s what we expected. We like that some people haven’t given up on the idea of finding land. There are settlements for players to engage with. Speak with the local people and even take on missions. Of course a game like Age of Water must have bases. You can construct your own base in this watery world. There is off course technology to spend points on and unlock new things, including stuff like “superstructures”.  

Overall Age of Water looks like a good game so far but nothing has truly grabbed us right now. There’s definitely a number of things going on here. We like the ocean, we like a post apocalyptic world that brings in the feeling of one. We like the style of the game as well. Lots of gamers will like this and be drawn the world. Those massive warships are currently the most impressive thing so far. We will have to see more of this game though. The developers ‘Three Whales Studio’ have done a very good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker might have to place a tracker on Age of Water. Now Age of Water may have a submerged world but it’s not deep enough for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn. It’s War!

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is an Open world Action Role Playing Game develop by ‘A44 Games‘ and published by ‘Kepler Interactive’. Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is said to be coming out in the summer of 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, PS5, PS4 and PC. This game will be in the Xbox Game pass as well. X35 Earthwalker is interested to see what this game delivers in full. Seems that Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has a lot to prove already. Let’s talk a look.

Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has a busy world. Humanity has been pushed to the brink of extinction (as always) due to evil on the loose. What evil? An army of the undead who belong to the old gods. What happened? The door to the afterlife was opened. How and why? We aren’t telling you. Now what’s called the coalition Army is taking the fight to them. It’s humanity vs gods… well more like budget discount gods. As always we are betting that these so called gods are actually going to be lame and disappointing. Maybe Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn can prove us wrong.

X35 Earthwalker Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

Players control Nor Vanek. She is part of the Coalition Army. A dangerous member for sure. She has a pet/companion/friend called Enki. This little creature has magical powers. Nor is definitely going to need Enki and its powers for this fight. Enki basically looks like a small wolf with straight goat horns and pointy narrow elephant ears. A corrupted evolved Umbreon maybe. Enki would have been better if it was bigger in size. Nor Vanek looks cool and military. Definitely liking the hair too. Adding more variety to the gaming world. She has competent written almost all over her. What we don’t like is that the developers went for another safe play with the generic female body type. slim, default standard issue that you see of npc in like almost every game. Developers these days are too scare to add meat and curves (not fat) to female designs. We need more variety. We also don’t like her eye lashes. It’s the same big eye lashes that you see on the internet today and we hate them. They never look good. Otherwise we like the look of the two stars of the game.

X35 Earthwalker Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

Now for the combat. This is the main things going on here. We see a main melee weapon mainly an axe. There’s a rifle for that long range action. Lastly of course there’s magic and that mystical business. There’s a whole combo system with special moves for different purposes. There’s a poised shot, a counter attack, charged pistol shots, sprint attacks, attacks you sync up with Enki and more. You even get a nice breakdown of the special things you do and their numbers on the HUD. Effective system by the looks of it. This does remind us of Fable 3 which had melee weapon, gun and magic. Hopefully Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn blends these things together well enough. There’s almost endless room for creativity. So no excuse here. Will there be magic infusion? What about area of effect abilities? We know that executions very cleanly utilises your weapons. We need to see that sort of blend in the game as well. Also each weapon needs to actually be effective. Lords of the Fallen made their ranged weapons very useful. Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn needs to get this right. combat does look clean though. We see smooth movement, turns and strikes.

X35 Earthwalker Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

Next is the world. Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn is an open world game. So we expected a big world with multiple locations and variety. We see basically villages, walled cities, rocky and snowy places, canyon and dusty places, palm trees, coasts and bodies of water. We do like how this world looks. Not depressing and dead. There’s some life and colour in this world. Will collectibles be a thing in? There are chests for players to find. For example you might get Blast Grenade. Obvious what it does but what’s not obvious is that Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn seems to have a system where getting multiple of that item can upgrade it. Increasing its number of uses and stuff like that. Players will need to find other members of the Coalition Army like the weaponry and explosives experts to unlock new services and upgrades. There’s spots and checkpoints that you can get to restore health and take a little break. 

X35 Earthwalker Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn

We checked out some Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn gameplay and it’s what we expected for the most part. We aren’t impressed with the enemies. They seem to be mostly humanoid with some having auras and shields. We see some others like giant spiders. We hope to see a cool variety but right now the enemies list looking weak. We do like that enemies receiving killing blows can lose their limbs. nice, gory and adds some flavour to the combat. There’s also a mechanic for the sniper gamers. If you score a long range kill shot on an enemy (assuming it’s kill only), you get a bullet camera to see the journey of your shot. Nice touch to the rifle gameplay. Enemies can be interrupted with certain attacks, especially charged shots. Multi jumping for more mobility and aerial control. Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn has a lot of going on in the game. From combat, world, mechanics, options, mobility etc.  

Overall Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn looks like an excellent game. Graphics are very good and the animations are very good also. Let’s quickly address some of the drama. People telling others online to boycott and avoid this game because sweet baby inc had some part in it at some point. sweet baby inc sucks and ruin almost everything they touch BUT they are NOT the developers. The developers are A44 Games. A44 Games worked really hard on this game. They even delayed the game to make sure to get everything top and ready. Boycotting the game will only truly punish A44 Games. A bunch of people worked hard and did their best to deliver a game and people are going to attack them to attack sweet baby inc. That’s pathetic. At least now A44 games learnt the truth about sweet baby inc and avoid them from now on but maybe they didn’t know before as many people still don’t know anything about sweet baby inc. Judge the game based on the game itself and not outside drama. If Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn sucks to you then avoid it but if it’s good then give it a go. Very simple. A44 Games has done an excellent job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an eye out for this game. Now Flintlock: The Siege of Dawn may have a war with the gods.

Another Crab’s Treasure. A Crab’s Life

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

Another Crab’s Treasure is an action adventure game developed and published by ‘Aggro Crab‘. Another Crab’s Treasure is said to be coming out the 25th of April 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker can confirm that crabs are tasty.  Another Crab’s Treasure is making the crustacean the main star here. Let’s take a look.

Another Crab’s Treasure has an understandable story. Players control Kril the crab… a hermit crab. Basically someone took Kril’s shell and sold it most likely. Or he was behind on rent and it got repossessed. To a hermit crab, their shell is literally their home. It’s that important. So Kril can’t just get it back. He has to buy it back. Life’s a hoe like that sometimes. Buying back your repossessed shell isn’t cheap. So the only logical thing to do is embark on an epic quest to recover treasure which can be used to get the shell back.

X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

So Kril arms himself and gets to work. You must battle and fight your way through. dodge attacks, time your strikes and survive. Keil isn’t the only one looking for treasure. The ocean is a dangerous place. Predators exist after all. Besides, there’s bigger things happening in the ocean. The ocean is polluted. Kril may be the one to learn the dark secret behind the pollution of the ocean… no, we won’t assume it’s the works of man. After all it could be ocean denizens with a crab in a bucket mentality.

A hermit crab isn’t strong so Kril will need protection, especially since he has no shell anymore. Players must find trash which can be used as a shell instead to help tank blows from enemies. So crab a food tin, box or whatever… then stick it on you. You Ian;’t done now. Trash in the ocean can be used for more things including weapons… maybe a firearm. Don’t forget about the solution though. Trash ain’t clean. Gunk is here and we aren’t talking about that great game called The Gunk.

X35 Earthwalker Another Crabs Treasure

We checked out some Another Crab’s Treasure gameplay and it’s not really what we expected. There’s more to the combat. You’ll get the chance to learn what’s called umami techniques from the other ocean dwellers. These are strong attacks that can change the battle. For example using a bobbit worm to trap enemies or even a mantis shrimp punch. Now if you didn’t tell from the gameplay, Another Crab’s Treasure is described similar to a soulslike. So expect some difficulty. There’s assist options for players if they want to make the game easier but the same options can be used to make the game harder.

Overall Another Crab’s Treasure looks like a good game. The graphic style works for a game like this which has some comedy to it. It’s a more casual and fun atmosphere instead of everything being dead and dark. There’s jokes and some stuff to keep things light but beware… the game is said to be a challenge for sure. We doubt it though. We liking the different characters, their accents and the different foes. This just might be a fun game. The seaweed looking sort of suspicious though. The developers ‘Aggro Crab’ have done a very good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to keep an eye open for this game. Now Another Crab’s Treasure may have a whole ocean but it’s still too small for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Unlife. Dark world indeed

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Unlife

Unlife is an action survival platformer game developed and published by ‘Diedemor studios’. Unlife is said to be coming out the 1st of March 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5 and PS4. Unlife is already out on PC though. X35 Earthwalker has conquered many ruined, destroyed post apocalyptic worlds. Unlife trying to create a scary world here. Let’s take a look.

Unlife is a post apocalyptic world basically. This world has been destroyed by nuclear war. Now there’s a black ocean and it’s full of all kinds of monstrous creatures. Players control a dude who is trying to survive in a submarine, in this black ocean. The situation looks grim for sure. Survival is the main goal. Believe us when we say there are big threats out there.

X35 Earthwalker Unlife

The submarine is the main base really in Unlife. Guide and navigate the “ocean platforms”. There are locations to explore and check out. In the hopes of finding supplies and maybe… just maybe… find other survivors. Who knows, maybe there’s a way to escape or even resolve the situation. These explorations are dangerous as there be monsters in there.

Unlife has multiple threats. There’s weird shaped wriggly humanoid monsters in the ocean itself. There’s mutated humans also. Nuclear crap and all that. There’s fast scrambling spider monsters. Unlife even seems rot have what looks like a discount kraken. These aren’t the only threats out there but they are out here and looking for some meat.  

X35 Earthwalker Unlife

We checked out some Unlife gameplay and it’s what we expected. The graphics are good but we don’t like the animation style though. We like the whole shooting and scavenging for supplies. We like the monsters but we hope there’s better variety. The difficulty is in question as it doesn’t look clear. Also what’s the level of scarcity concerning the ammo and supplies.

Overall Unlife looks like a good game. We like that there’s two endings. One has to be a submarine gets destroyed thing while the other has to be survival and maybe a solution. The battle with these creatures. has to be the highlight, especially the big monster and kraken. We hope the submarine moments are where things get kind of horror game like with suspense and thing show up in the water. The developers ‘Diedemor studios’ have done a good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to see what this game does. Now Unlife may have a black ocean with monsters but that ocean would get cleaned up real quick by… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Highwater. A Flooded world

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Highwater

Highwater is a Turn based adventure game developed by ‘Demogog Studio‘ and published by ‘Rouge Games‘. Highwater is said to be coming out the 14th of March 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Android, iOS PS5, PS4 and PC. X35 Earthwalker is powerful swimmer… floods are no problem. Highwater looking to get players wet. Let’s take a look.

Highwater is set in a world that suffered from a “global climate catastrophe”. The events of the game take place after the catastrophe. The place is submerged. A flood. Players control Nikos and his friends. Their mission? To find and board a rocket on its way to Mars. This rocket is only a rumour though but when faced with a flooded destroyed world, you got to take the chance.

X35 Earthwalker Highwater

Highwater is a weird one because it’s described as an adventure game but also a turn based strategy game. There’s also puzzle elements too. There’s lots going on here. Highwater will have players travel around primarily on what looks like a speedboat. You will hopefully find others out there who will join you in your mission and even better, help you out in a fight. So navigate this flooded world, clash with insurgents, use your head to solve puzzles and hopefully make it to the rocket.

X35 Earthwalker Highwater

It’s quite clear but friendship seems to be at the centre of this game here,. Trusting others, working together, being willing to help, getting each others backs and never giving up. To make things better, players got Highwater Pirate Radio to keep the tunes coming. Read this official text, “In Highwater, the true essence lies in savoring the modest victories, grappling with the harsh setbacks, and overcoming the peculiar obstacles encountered throughout this unconventional journey. These experiences take precedence over the destination itself, making for a captivating and thought-provoking adventure.” We doubt it but let’s see.

X35 Earthwalker Highwater

We checked out some Highwater gameplay and it’s what we expected. There is more than just water. There’s also Alphaville and the war zone. Both on either side of the flooded Hightower. We like that alphaville plays a role in this game. It’s fortified and where the wealthy are holding up. Nikos better steal a sandwich. Gameplay is standard indie game stuff. Thanks to the Highwater Pirate radio, this game has the tunes. Games like this rely on music to get the atmosphere, mood and feelings going. The combat is standard for this type but more emphasis on using items and the environments… hence some puzzle elements. Like knocking down a tree to get the upper hand. We won’t say much.

Overall Highwater looks like an alright game so far. Highwater is blending a bunch of things and it seems to work so far. There’s more than one type of transportation. We wonder if the rocket is actually true. If it is true then why haven’t the rich gone for it? Maybe their life is better here. Who’s in charge of the radio? Questions indeed. The developers ‘Demogog studio’ have done a good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will have to hear what what this game gets done. Highwater may have floods but those water are too shallow for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Expeditions: A MudRunner Game. Nature’s trials

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Expeditions: A MudRunner Game

Expeditions: A MudRunner Game is an adventure driving simulation game developed by ‘Saber Interactive‘ and published by ‘Focus Entertainment‘. Expeditions: A MudRunner Game is said to be coming out the 5th of March 2024 on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. X35 Earthwalker is very knowledgeable in the field of science. Expeditions: A MudRunner Game is trying to create a serious and realistic adventure. Let’s take a look.

X35 Earthwalker Expeditions: A MudRunner Game

Expeditions: A MudRunner Game is apparently a scientific journey. Players will face nature for real… well sort of. There’s a bunch of undiscovered land and territories. You have to explore these places, set up a base of operations and collect information which is the scientific parts. The main method of exploration and traversing is your vehicle.  We got questions already and we see potential but will it go down the interesting route or be boring. 

X35 Earthwalker Expeditions: A MudRunner Game

This Expeditions: A MudRunner Game right out of the gates reminded us off another game firstly by the name alone and then by some of the vehicles. That game is smugglers run. You need a high IQ to make the connection that we made here. The biggest thing for us concerning Expeditions: A MudRunner Game is just the whole rolling across wilderness and outdoors terrain. The exploration,. seeing new things, in such good detail as well, with effective vehicles. If the world looks good, the scale is good, and the traversal is good then that alone is something good enough. Expeditions: A MudRunner Game… do not mess this up. 

X35 Earthwalker Expeditions: A MudRunner Game

Expeditions: A MudRunner Game has got forests, mountain ranges and off course deserts. These lands or should we say territories, have ancient ruins and treasures. Expeditions: A MudRunner Game is all about the research expeditions. Now this can done with the help of your vehicles. There’s a whole range of vehicles to tackle these terrains. Now of course you aren’t totally alone as players can recruit and build a whole elite team who will add their expertise to your work. 

X35 Earthwalker Expeditions: A MudRunner Game

We checked out some Expeditions: A MudRunner Game gameplay and it is not really what we expected. It has strengths but some clear missed directions as well. We definitely love the details and graphics. The dirt, soil, water even, markings and more. The environments and lands are very cool. Lots of work clearly wen into this. Sadly they went in a direction that heavily limits this game. There’s a cool variety of vehicles from heavy equipped big vehicles to heavy duty stuff and some that look chill. There’s birds in the distance doing their thing. There’s even. relaxing atmosphere to Expeditions: A MudRunner Game at times. Those who care about the details will have a lot of that.

Overall Expeditions: A MudRunner Game has a lot stuffed into it. There’s lots of gameplay to enjoy. There’s lots of equipment to attach to your vehicles and there’s even drones and scanners to get better view and collect information. There’s somewhat base building in there form of base of operations. Tents, chairs, crates and more. Hire and get people to help out or work for you. They don’t help for free though. Check their prices. The developers ‘Saber Interactive’ have done a very good job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an eye open concerning this game. Now Expeditions: A MudRunner Game may have research expeditions but those take too long for… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Open Roads. Road Trip

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Open Roads

Open Roads is an adventure game developed by ‘Open Roads Team’ and published by ‘Annapurna Interactive‘. Open Roads is said to come out the 22nd of February 2024 on the Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and pc. We at X35 Earthwalker think road trips can be fun. Open Roads is out here presenting a big road trip. Let’s take a look.

Open Roads is about two ladies. Tess and her mother, Opal. Opal is a cool name. They finally discovered a cache of old letters and notes in their attic stashed away. These papers revealed a lot of stuff. We talking big and deep family secrets. This includes burglaries… decade old ones. There’s a lot going on but Tess and Opal are on the case.

According to what we are hearing, there are some mysteries, even dark ones… ones that should be left alone. Off course our ladies Opal and Tess aren’t going to leave them alone. Were hear that there’s even a treasure That’s somewhere near the Canadian border. Open Roads truly is a road trip as they go to check out a whole series of long abandoned family properties where they will learn more and unearth the past.

We checked out some Open Roads gameplay and it’s what we expected. It’s a story more so than a game with the story being the main factor as well. Annapurna Interactive amazed many people with their story telling in a particular past game of theirs. So we do expect the story to be strong and interesting.  A good focus is placed on the mother and daughter relationship here as well. The music truly adds impact to a game like this and Open Road has got the music. They just got to piece it all together right.

Overall Open Roads looks like a great game. Players must lock in and get immersed in this world to get the most out of it. Emotions will be a big factor and paying attention to the details revealed. There are even things that Opal herself has tried to forget. What does she know? After all what’s done in the dark will be revealed in the light. Very nice graphics style and works with this game. The developers ‘Open Roads Team’ have done an excellent job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep an eye out for this game. Now Open Roads may have a emotional and deep story but it’s all children’s books level in the eyes of… the ‘Earth Walk!’

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora. The visuals

Posted on by X35 Earthwalker
X35 Earthwalker Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is a first person action adventure game developed by ‘Massive Entertainment‘ and published by ‘Ubisoft‘. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is said to be coming out the 7th of December 2023 on the Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and pc. X35 Earthwalker loves creativity and beautiful worlds. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora might have this. Let’s take a look. 

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is off course set on the world of Pandora. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has a standalone story. So be prepared to see some different stuff. Players will play as Na’vi. You will travel or should we say go on a journey across the ‘western frontier’. The western frontier is a part that hasn’t been seen before. This alone brings some excitement.

X35 Earthwalker Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora

Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora was developed for the next gen consoles. So imagine how great things will look on the Xbox Series X especially as the most powerful console. Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora is open world and so far the world looks beautiful. We are seeing vibrant colours and flora dominating the place as it should. This world is described as “living and reactive”. We will look to see if this is in fact true. If so, that would be a medium plus.

X35 Earthwalker Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora

As Na’vi you have higher strength and mobility. So get moving and put that strength to use. Your character is customisable and players can craft new gear. Of course a game like this has upgrades. So improve those skills. Weapons can also be upgraded. Now hopefully Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has upgrades and abilities that work with the actual environment. The species native to Pandora are well adapted to the place and so we expect to see very suitable abilities that also allow for different play styles.

We checked out some Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora gameplay and it’s what we expected… for the most part. There’s characters to interact with and creatures in there that will be doing their thing. What for sure will be there is the RDA. Face them and push them back. It’s not going to be easy but… someone gots to do it. We do like that there is the traditional weapons route like the bows and spear throwing or you can go modern human with rifles and even a shotgun. So there are some options.

Overall Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora looks like a very good game. We like that players can bond with and ride a Banshee to traverse this big area and even engage in aerial combat with the RDA. There’s even some mystical looking structures and anomalies. A environment like Pandora should easily house numerous mysteries, ruins maybe artefacts. Developers better get creative with it. Definitely hoping to see more of what Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora has to offer. The developers ‘Massive Entertainment’ have done an excellent job so far. We at X35 Earthwalker will keep our eyes open for this game. Now Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora may have a never before seen environment but it’s obvious stuff for… the ‘Earth Walk!’
