The Grinns Tale
The Grinns Tale The Grinns Tale Set to Put a Grin on Your Face
After previous success in developing games such as Cloudstone and Cartrider Dash, renown Korean game maker, Nexon, produced another interesting outing titled, The Grinns Tale. This Facebook-RPG style game combines basic city building element and also turned based RPG battle style, which isnt actually a new breed but remain cunning enough for gamers.
In the Grinns, you will be playing as a young hero who suddenly being given important mission to conquer monsters in this mysterious magical tower with the help of other partners. Not only slaying some monsters and gathering rewards from battles, in this game you will be given some minor quests related with the city building element as your character will be asked to develop his own town, which eventually plays a huge part in your battles.
The battle system is pretty neat as the game provide an interactive feature where you can drag a sort of arrow towards the enemies that you want to attack before battering them. Its also a bit like the classic turn based style where you must wait for a certain amount of time in between attacks. Before battling theres also an option to set up the line for your heroes, so you can switch which characters you want to put in the front, middle or back line.
Among the three characters you can use in battles, one of them will be a cleric that possessed a curing ability which can fully heal the other two party members during fights. Another interactive features available in the battle is that the characters can have a unique condition such as starving, which you can immediately recover by giving bread to them.
Meanwhile, the city-building system is pretty similar with other town simulation stuffs on Facebook but Nexons experience somehow managed to make things simple yet very fun to play with. Theres not much complication with the assignments you must do, the in game cash also isnt giving the players a hard time, plus each buildings your creating have a direct effect for your upcoming battles.
Grinns Tales graphic quality is also pretty good, the environment is nicely detailed and its simplicity actually gave a plus point as it make things visually pleasing. The games characters design may not be your common cool, cute RPG type but just like its title, gamers will be entertained with a sort of Tim Burtons dark cartoon style. However, the customizable items and tools are pretty cool and eye catching.
Overall, Grinns Tale is a very neat RPG game that bring lots of fun and freshness for Facebook gamers, but theres an obvious lack of social interactions for this outing as aside from inviting friends to join you, theres nothing essential that your getting from playing with them. Other than that, perhaps the character design might not immediately attract some gamers, who are more attached to cute, cool common RPG designs.
In all, this game is one of few RPG games in Facebook that will consumed much of your time, playing, building and enjoying the simply yet pleasing environment. Nexons experience is pretty much a satisfaction guarantee for any gamers, who already enjoyed the companys previous outings.
