Here is this week's collection of games, handpicked from the highlights of the last few days. This time we have, of course, Cube Escape - Harvey's Box (a point-and-click escape adventure for the most ingenious). Additionally, Speed Pool King (a 3D pool game), Bleach vs Naruto (for anime fans) and Tiny Treasure (two knights in search of a treasure). All great. Promised!
Speed Pool King
If you like pool games, you'll love Speed Pool King. This 3D game perfectly translates the mechanics of billiards, where the mouse cursor represents the cue to hit the white ball and thus sink all the colored balls into the pocket. Adjust the angle and power of the shot but watch out for the time running on screen. You only have two minutes, but don't worry because each ball you sink will reward you with a few seconds. Once you sink all the balls, not only will you win many points but you'll advance to the next round with a different arrangement of balls. If you think you're a good pool player, don't hesitate to give this title a try.
Cube Escape - Harvey's Box
The escape point-and-click adventures are here to stay. This time the plot takes place in 1969 where the protagonist, Harvey, is trapped inside a box about to be moved to Rusty Lake. Lacking a cabin, in Cube Escape - Harvey's Box you must escape from a box full of puzzles. To do this, you have to figure out what is happening and help Harvey escape by solving many puzzles. Once again you have to explore the interior of the box, collecting the various objects that appear there and using them in their respective places. A very ingenious adventure, with excellent puzzles, and very good graphics.
Tiny Treasure
The premise of Tiny Treasure is as follows: two knights decide to go in search of a treasure that only through cooperation can they claim. Each knight represents a color, yellow and purple. What does this mean? In the scenarios there are platforms and barriers of these colors that can obstruct the path of the characters. For example, a yellow barrier prevents the passage of the knight of that color; to solve it, the yellow knight has to jump on top of the purple knight to then jump over the barrier. There are many different situations like these throughout the game. Collaboration is key.
Boss Rush Apocalypse
Boss Rush Apocalypse: In this action game, you have to eliminate a series of deformed monsters that only want to end humanity. At the beginning, you start killing small monsters, but as you progress through levels, the battles will be against immense abominations. Upon defeating a monster, you'll have a time span to choose between two power-ups, which can range from improvements in sword damage, equipping a jetpack, changing the sword for a longer-reach axe, a shield that will protect you for a few seconds, and increasing or recovering the amount of energy hearts. Remember that you are the last line of defense and humanity depends on you.
Bleach vs Naruto 2.3
Bleach vs Naruto 2.3: And we end with a fighting game that pits the most powerful characters of Bleach against those of Naruto, and in which only one can survive. Who will win? Only you can decide that, choosing from a wide variety of fighters including the iconic Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura versus the team of Ichigo, Rukia and Uryū, among many more characters. Besides the fighter you choose to fight, you have to select another one to assist you in battles, generally attacking the rival. The special techniques characteristic of each character are at the order of the day through an energy bar that fills up as you attack. The best part of Bleach vs Naruto is that, besides fighting alone, you can play with a friend from the same computer.
