Blockman Go: An Exciting Arcade Game
When is a game considered “good”? When it gets loads of reviews? When it is bought and played by millions and millions of people? Who gets to decide the metrics? The truth is, being a “good” game is highly subjective, depending on who plays it, what their demography is, what generally interests them, and other stuff like that. Well, what do we think? Personally, we believe that every game has a potential to be good especially if it is created by passionate people who also love games and know what players want. This is often why community modified games are often extremely popular among players. Community game mods are products of passion and not just profit. This is why Blockman Go is already off to a good start with its horde of mini-games and the fact that it is also an application where aspiring game developers can create their own mini-games.
The rise of games like these, with an element of being able to play more games through a single game, has already taken hold of the industry. It started with Roblox, an indisputable game giant. Now, there are so many modifiable multiplayer games like Minecraft and IO-type of titles that it is already impossible to name all of them. One of the top in the list of fun arcade-style game with mini-games and mods is Blockman Go. There are so many fun things about Blockman Go. For one, it has a pretty unique set of graphics that really sets it apart from other similar games. Like its name suggests, Blockman Go’s aesthetics are literally block characters with rather hilariously relatable expressions, depending on how the player modifies their avatar. Another thing about Blockman Go is that it has a lot of mini-games to choose from, yet it is not saturated with millions of content and games that are oftentimes difficult to distinguish from one another. Lastly, Blockman Go is akin to a social networking application except users are only networking and communicating about the game and how to win, who to party with, etc. There is nothing more satisfying than winning especially through the power of cooperation – a feat that is only possible through good communication.
Even though the concept of “games within a game” is nothing new, what can really separate it from its competitors is the execution. Blockman Go really exemplified this with its approachable and easy stance as well as interesting theme that is unlike any other.
