3D Dot Game Heros


The first thing I think of when I see or play this game is Nintendo's Zelda this game is not a copy but more of a  parody which honours the Zelda games, there is a lot of people out there who hate this game because they say its a copy of Zelda i don't think so, I think this game in areas is in fact better it has more of a sense of humor and in parts jokes about the game itself it has lots of references to old school games which I really liked, this game just kept putting a smile on my face from the little comments to the massive sword that takes up half the screen this game doesn't take its self seriously and I like that.


You play a hero in the land of Dotnia a hero that can be any name and any thing you can create your own hero or use the many templates that come pre loaded, this hero's quest is to rid Dotnia of evil and darkness, legend has it that a evil king the Dark King Onyx plagued Dotnia of darkness and it was a legendary hero that defeated this king and sealed him into one of the magical orbs. Dotnia was saved and all was fine. We join the game where evil has returned the Dark Bishop Fuelle has stolen the orb and has plans to free the evil king once again and spread darkness once more on Dotnia our quest is to stop the Dark Bishop Fuelle and take in the footsteps of the legendary hero.


The game play of this game is truly amazing as the game name states 2D is no more and is now 3D due to the king wanting to improve Dotnia. The visuals in this game are so bright and colourful and playing this game is a real delight to the eyes, the Background visuals are very creative also and far away objects/ background scenery have a blurred look to them which focuses your eyes on the for ground. Another thing I like about this game is the audio you can tell there was a lot of work put into the music of this game I know when i finished playing this game i had the tunes in my head. Just like the Zelda series you get all those items ans weapons we know and love plus a few new ones, bombs, arrows, swords, Shields, boomerangs and magic are all in there and work just as well as they did in the older games.


There are lots of this game that are from the original Zelda games but its this that I really like, I'm a personal fan of the Zelda series and to play a game like this really brings back memory's of those older games we just don't see as much now a days. I don't think it will be one of those game I will always go back to like the Zelda games but this game was defiantly worth the play and if anyone has seen this game and is wondering whether to play it or not, go for it you'll enjoy it :)

 As usual ill put in a trailer and some game play of this game so you can get a better idea of what this game is like and yes it does of its set of PlayStation trophies list bellow too :)
