Welcome back my friends! Today is a good day to write a reviews… As the title says i’ll talk about a fighting game that I downloaded days ago: Rumble Fighter (EU version),  a game, IMHO, where you can spend max 1/1.5 hour because of the ripetitivity of action but excellent to release stress. A nice killtime to fill short time holes in your day. Let’s explain more accurately now.

DESIGN

At first impact graphic result poor, very simple but backgrounds and characters are quite better.  After you choose your class there isn’t the possibility to create another character, you have to buy it from the shop (it’s quite expensive too) and THERE ISN’T ANY customization, a bad moves in my opinion. A good amount of clothes are avalaible in the shop and are gifted at certain level, same for weapon and some scroll that teach you new fighting moves.

Let’s see the fighting part now: backgrounds are original but nothing special, the real point of strenght is variety, there are A LOT of backgrounds (classics ring, vertical arena, moving map, ice island and much more). Some maps are harder then other for beginner but after a bit of training there won’t be any problem.

Character are almost all the same until you earn enough money to buy something, the four classes have different skill (2 skill each) and common techniques (guard, punch, kick) and ehy… uuuh i’m ripetitive but, NOTHING SPECIAL, i’ve seen much better, not flashy, not all originals and they’re just two… Ok reviews must be impersonal but… what were they thinking when they create this? This is a fighting game, people want to see fantastic techniques, flashy skill, explosion, fire and a little bit of blood, why not? There isn’t anything like that in this game…  Anyway graphic it’s not everything.

GAMEPLAY

Rumble Fighter has a simple and intuitive gameplay, whit a good and clear tutorial (there are just few keys lol…). The main classes are: Striker, Elementalist, Alchemist and Soul Fighter that evolve in Guardian at level 20 (but i heard that game stop to be free at this point). As i said they all have 3 common techniques usable during the normal mode, each class have a different trasformation (it just add a pair of gloves and shoes) that unlock 2 skill quite powerfull. The trasformation can be activated waiting a charging bar. RumbleFighter_08142009-192622

There are two kind of game: Deathmatch and Rumble Match both teamVSteam or allVSall but the second one has 3 sub-modes: king of the hill, moving map, and potion battle.  I had a lot of fun in DeathMatch allVSall but king of the hill is funny too (i think that it’s all about tastes). Sacred scrolls are an interesting way to differentiate classes, these scrolls equipped change your fighting style (each classes have unique styles), mhuay thai, karate, street fight and many other that could be bought in the store, but character are still all equilibrated and there’s no big differences except skill.  This game has the potential to become very popular and deserve our trust.

PRIDE AND SHAME

Let’s list now point of strenght and point of weakeness:

PROs

  • Very good game to kill time
  • Funny modes
  • Excellent tutorial, you need just 5 minutes to learn to play
  • A lot of maps
  • Brand new game whit nice patches on the way
  • Light client (400MB)

CONs

  • Few classes
  • No possibility of costumization when you create your character
  • Terrible and not original graphic
  • Few skill and techniques
  • There aren’t a lot of players so in certain hours it’s hard to find a room
  • It needs a lot of improvements before it can be considered a good game

WhipMe’s Conclusion

This game lack of originality and graphic accuracy but it’s simple, user-friendly, anti-stress whit a lot to improve, I gave a look to the US version and it’s way better, so I’m sure EU version will gain a lot from next patches!

Overall Score 6/10
