Been playing Friday – by Friedemann Friese for a couple months now. It’s basically a strategy game where you’re helping Robinson, who got stranded on an island, fight against all sorts of hazards. At first, Robinson’s not quite skilled, but as you win fights, you can improve his abilities. The thing is, life on the island is tough, so Robinson starts aging and getting clumsy over time.
Here’s what you do: you’ve got this stack of cards representing Robinson’s different behaviors, and you’ve gotta try to improve that stack so you can collect the best cards at the end. There’s also a new tournament mode called King of the Island where up to 1024 players can battle it out. Sounds intense, right?
Look, if you’re into strategy games with a twist, you’ll probably like this. It’s not perfect – the upgrades take forever at higher levels and it can get a little repetitive after a while – but overall it does the job. Worth checking out.
