Badland Brawl - Review

Although many do not perceive it, the truth is that several companies constantly fight to dominate the market of technology and videogames, and this is generally very beneficial for the community of players, as there are always constant updates that improve the quality of the game. Sometimes, many companies tend to copy ideas from other games simply to get an audience quickly and be able to enter the list of video games that is fashionable. Although some consider that these actions are totally unforgivable, others consider that it is a new opportunity to improve the quality of the gaming experience to which we are accustomed, since many times it is the same but better.

Badland Brawl is a multiplayer video game of strategy and action in real time, which was created and distributed by Frogmind for Android and iOS, being Frogmind a company that develops videogames and has affiliations and direct agreements with the popular company Supercell. Badland Brawl in this case has an environment quite similar to that of Clahs Royale, this may be due to an agreement between Frogmind and Supercell, although it is difficult to know with certainty what are the treaties that exist between these parties.

When Badland Brawl was officially launched on the Android and iOS platforms, everyone thought it was a copy of Clash Royale, but despite having a fairly familiar environment, Badland Brawl managed to create a different idea of ​​the action in real time that we can observe in Clahs Royale. Obviously, the main intention of Badland Brawl is to dethrone Clash Royale, however, it is very far from that, since we all know the dominance of the market that Supercell has with most of its video games in Android and IOS.

Playing Badland Brawl is quite simple, because simply with the start tutorial provided by the game we can understand almost completely how the game works, however, it is one thing to know how to play and another to be one of the best players. Always keep in mind that the surprise effect is one of the factors that most influences strategic videogames, we must start each fight knowing that we can begin to create a strategy that allows us to constantly win.

As in most strategic video games in real time, the speed in making decisions, good combinations and psychological duel with your opponent is something that greatly influences the outcome of the fight, this is known to all who have played an online video game. What makes Badland Brawl a really unique game compared to Clash Royale, is that in every fight there are rules of engagement, so all battles are different, it is better to think and not make hasty decisions.

Each player can select eight cards for each combat, knowing that each one has a different mana cost, besides varying the damage, the speed, the utility, etc. After selecting your ideal deck, you must proceed to enter combat, and in this way the game matches you with someone with a level equal or similar to yours to start the fight. When the combat begins, we can see that there is a tower of the left loop and a tower on the right side, in this case, the tower on the left is the one that belongs to us, is the one that we must protect or otherwise we will lose the combat.

During combat, we can throw the cards that are present in our deck of eight cards, obviously always thinking about the cost of the mana, since it is not advisable to leave our tower without mana, since sometimes our opponent uses fast attack cards. The fight ends when one of the players manages to destroy the opposing tower, thus becoming the winning player of the combat, but, in case neither of the two players manages to destroy the opposite tower, there is a time limit that will be responsible for saying who is the winner of the match according to the remaining life points of each of the towers.

Where do the cards come from?

Although it seems hard to believe, the cards come out of the eggs ... Are they literally eggs? That's right, unlike Clash Royale, where we have to open chests of silver, gold, legendary and others, in Badland Brawl we must open the eggs, which we obtain as a reward when we win in each fight. The eggs can vary in quality according to their difficulty of obtaining, and the best part is that we can take care of the eggs so that they are of better quality and obtain better rewards, only that it takes many hours for the egg to improve its quality. You have to learn to hatch!

I think that, at the level of graphic quality, Badland Brawl has many flaws, since it seems to be specially designed for low-income smartphones, since it is a video game that works very well on almost any mobile device, it could even dust off our old smart phones and play there, without any inconvenience. To solve this, I think Badland Brawl should have a more adjustable graphics system, where you can enjoy the benefits whether you have a state-of-the-art smartphone or an old one.

As I mentioned, if you are looking for good effects and graphics, Badland Brawl will not make you feel satisfied, as there are many things to improve and not necessarily because the effects are bad, in fact, they are very good, but they need more clarity, especially when we are used to to play games with high graphic qualities. On the other hand, if you can see a very clear, well distributed and dynamic game menu, which allows people to find the different options very easily, without having much experience in video games of this type.

For those who care about the sound, I must say that in this aspect the creators of Badland Brawl did a good job, since the game has very good quality sounds that allow us to keep us entertained, especially within matches, since even Each card has different sounds, and even voices, that allow the battles to be quite dynamic and entertaining, since what really matters is not getting bored while playing, no matter how stressful the battles are.

For many, the community is the most important in video games, as many play with the intention of meeting new people and creating new friendships, in addition to playing to release tension or eliminate stress after a long day of work. In my opinion, after playing Badland Brawl for a couple of weeks, I must say that I did not like the community very much, since I consider that it has a very weak community.

As with most online video games, there are also clans in Badland Brawl, which allow a group of one hundred players for each clan to interconnect each other more and more, since in addition to being able to communicate, we can also request and donate cards. All clans have the right to create a "clan egg" that grows in daily rewards according to the number of gears collected by clan members, in this case, it can be collected by playing alone or accompanied.

Although there are clans, communities in Reddit and Discord, Badland Brawl is a little out of place in terms of communication between players, since almost nobody usually speaks, especially in Latin America. On the other hand, this game has been exploited better in Asian countries such as Japan and China, since they are the players that interact most in the game, and you can easily see that their clans are much more active than ours. Maybe it's a good idea to learn to speak Mandarin!

Probably you are a lover of strategy video games designed for smartphones, as is the case with Clash Royale, but you will surely want to take a break and try new games, but you are not sure and do not know where to start, so I personally recommend Badland Brawl. This is a video game that will allow you to experience a different quality and game experience, without having to get away from the classic Clash Royale game, as well as being compatible with any of your mobile devices, unlike Clash Royale, which in its latest version , became more demanding in terms of the resources consumed.

If you are looking for new people and have fun talking with these people while you play, I recommend that you stay away from Badland Brawl, since at this moment there is not an air of active people who want to socialize with others, or in this case, if you are stubborn , we recommend that you learn to speak Mandarin or Japanese, since the English and Spanish languages are not strong languages in Badland Brawl.
