Bossgard
SCORE: 65
Did you catch the collaborative
Twitch stream we did of Bossgard
with Christ Centered Gamer? If not you need to be following us both to
find out when we are streaming and collaborating. You missed a really
cool crossover event. You do not want to miss those in the future. Trust
me on this. We are constantly looking for ideas and games to bring to
your attention.
After Cheryl over at Christ Centered Gamer suggested Bossgard as a
collab game to do a stream on, we requested a code from the video game
developer. They were kind enough to send us a digital download code for
this game. To my knowledge there are no physical copy versions of
Bossgard on the Personal Computer (PC). The Steam software is also
required to play this game.
Bossgard is a game for up to five players. There is one boss and four
vikings. The four vikings are trying to kill the boss, and the one boss
is trying to kill the vikings. In my opinion the boss characters are
over powered. The computer controlled characters are also generally
overpowered. I died in the tutorial no matter which side I took. When I
played the boss against human characters I dominated them. When I played
the vikings I got schooled.
I noticed something very interesting while playing Bossgard. If a human
is a boss, and the vikings are a mixture of human and computer
controlled, the computer controlled stay alive the longest. I am
personally not big on the control scheme in Bossgard. The issues
families will have with Bossgard are violence, promotion of false gods,
and more. I felt more aggressive after playing Bossgard.
Bossgard is a 371 megabyte download. There are multiple bosses, and
characters can level up by playing. I did have some fun playing Bossgard
on the PC. The action gets very chaotic and you can get lost in the mix.
I did multiple times. It was still fun to play and collaborate with
another channel. I hope the balance gets fixed and there are better
control scheme options in the future.
