PLAYPLAYFUN'S IMPRESSION ON PAPER CRAFT BATTLES:
If you are a fan of Advance Wars series, you should feel right at home playing Paper Craft Battles.
As mentioned by the developer, you are in charge of your units and a command center at the beginning. What you need to do is to find and destroy the opponent's command center. But that wouldn't be as easy as it sounds as the enemy will rain down units as many as you are to do exactly the same thing to you.
Having played for just over an hour, there are a few things that I would like to comment regarding Paper Craft Battles:
- It would be nice to know exactly how much damage that units will do to each other, how much hit points a structure can heal units and how much hit points each unit has
- Units' stats and their more detailed information would be useful especially to inform players what veteran status means
- A helicopter should be able to travel across rivers. There are quite a few places in the game that helicopters can't travel although naturally, it should be able to
- Graphics wise, it should adopt a real paper craft art style using origami like this game
Overall, Paper Craft Battles have huge potential. It would be interesting to see what the developer will do next to the game! Currently, Paper Craft Battles are perfect for a more relax and less detailed strategy gamers. On the other hand, Hardcore strategy gamers will feel quite a few things missing from the game.
