Athena Arrives in League of Angels III

YOOZOO Games | 13.03.19
Although it’s unlikely the goddess Athena was ever partial to a pint of Guinness, League of Angels III’s latest Mythic Hero arrives just in time for another fantastic series of holiday events — including St. Patrick’s Day.

Debuting as a support angel can be a tough gig but with her special skills Divine Honor, Dignified Judgment and Constellation Shield, Athena is the strongest Support Hero in the game so far. The daughter of Asherah, sister of Johanna, and mother of Inanna, this powerful angel will be available in upcoming events — so seize your chance to get this new Mythic Hero.

St. Patrick’s Day is celebrated widely within League of Angels III and is also known as ‘Rebirth Day’; differing somewhat to real-life events, where a rebirth might be something more enthusiastic participants require the day after St. Patrick’s Day. Nonetheless, in-game, the holiday will see many angels donning their finest green costumes and holding huge feasts to celebrate.

League of Angels III will also have several other holiday additions to consider, with an all-new exclusive mount ‘Seat of Fortune’ and also new wings ‘Wings of the Fae' and outfit ‘Song of Life’ (available via Wheel of Fortune).

To join the celebrations head on over to the League of Angels III site to play the game.

REVIEW: Nice Slice for Nintendo Switch

Review by Jon Donnis
Kool2Play are back with another simple to play arcade game.
You have a super sharp knife, and endless amount of things to slice, and the smaller the pieces the higher the score, it really is as simple as that.

As you will have come to expect from Kool2Play the soundtrack is top quality, with a slow rhythmic beat that just helps you get into the game.

Obvious comparisons will be made to Fruit Ninja, but this game does have some differences, including the fact you can cut food into more than one piece.

As us slice at the food, a correct cut will add time, and a missed cut will take time off, so some skill is needed here as opposed to just endlessly trying to slice.

As you progress through the game, you collect coins which in turn allow you to unlock new things like new knives which have comic names like "Obi-Knife-Kenobi"

This is a simple game, if you enjoyed Fruit Ninja you will enjoy this. The only negative is that the controls can take a bit of getting used to, but once you do you will be flying.

A fun pick up and play arcade game that doesn't take too many brain cells to play.

I score this 7/10

Marble Combat out now on Steam Early Access for Free!

Phantom 8 is back with a total new game concept named Marble Combat. The studio’s first multiplayer game available now in Early Access on Steam and is free to play. Marble Combat will be further developed in an open development style with heavy involvement of the community - listening to the feedback of the fans is the studio’s driving force.

Gameplay style
Marble combat is a physics based multiplayer game for 2 - 8 people. Players compete as magical marbles racing and fighting to dominate capture points and collect power ups. Every player can pick a combination of four abilities which can hinder enemies, boost allies or improve ball control.

Development history
"Marble Combat started out as a small multiplayer demo pitched internally to the Phantom 8 team. It was incredibly fun and playable at an early stage and the team wanted to work on something light hearted and funny without a long development cycle. The concept provided a reasonable scope for what a small team could produce and would be easy to test and take on feedback from anyone who wanted to get involved."

"At first it was just the intention was to be a ball rolling game but like any development project, the team hit upon a flurry of new ideas for setting. After fleshing out some of the powers and level design options, a real life marble setting seemed perfect. The art style was at first a full on 1950's-60's retro feel but as we wanted to get in more and more toys and references from our childhood, it ended up containing themes from various eras."
