TGH writes: There’s this game that came out a few years ago where you stack interlocking blocks together to make complete lines. Yeah, it’s Tetris. Most people have played it at some point in their life and, for most of THOSE people, the game is just about perfect. How do you improve perfection? Well Fire Hose Games have decided to take a shot at it with Slam Bolt Scrappers, a game that combines Tetris’ block stacking with an exciting amalgamation of tower defense and beat-em up. Is it really possible to improve on an already amazing foundation? Let’s find out.
Slam Bolt Scrappers is a strange game. Strange in an interesting way. The basic premise is that you have a building area and your opponent has a building area. You then fight over crates which can be dropped in your own building area in a sort of psuedo-tetris way. When these crates are arranged into square shapes they form turrets that shoot at the other player’s turrets. Oh! And there’s different coloured crates for different types of turrets. Also there’s ninjas and giant robots. Got all that? Good.
Gamesta.com has yet another round of PC deals for frugal gamers. The latest comes from Groupees and their Be Mine 8 Bundle promotion that packs a ton of games for a low price. Just a buck will get you 4 games already, like the recently released Slam Bolt Scrappers. With $5 or more, you'll get Blood Bowl and more as well.
Build and brawl in this fast and frantic mash-up! Race your opponents to build the most powerful towers in Slam Bolt City while defending against deceptively adorable baddies and hugely epic bosses.
This game is great. A lot of fun to play and skill to master. I hate how there is no online though.
i might pick it up later
I'm buying this in the morning, the wife will say something about wasteful spending lol. When it comes to games there's no such thing lol.
I really liked the demo. I was interesting and frantic.I also wish they had online multiplayer. That would have been icing on the cake but I am still buying it anyway. Hoping that they add it later or something.
