Not a great game, interesting concept, but too sweaty
1 - No real story to speak of.
2 - Doesn't look graphically bad. Not good, either.
3 - The game is... silent. Too silent. Doesn't bring any immersion.
4 - Stages take too long to get fun and once they do, they end.
Wouldn't recommend it.
I got this game because the 2D mobile games were a lot of fun. It's a game where you're God, and the
people are trying to build the tower of Babel. To stop them, you use natural disasters to kill them as quickly as you can, lest they get to the top of the building and lay the next brick down. The 2D version was a ton of fun. Unfortunately, translated into 3D, you're allowed far less creativity and feel far less God-like. There also isn't much of a campaign, aside from the same building being built over and over and the ocassional new skill, which doesn't make the game any less repetitive. If you like the idea of this game, I recommend the 2D mobile version, if it's still available. If only that game's mechanics could be translated into a PC port...
3500 years ago, a student in Babylon did the inevitable and carved jokes about "beer," "intercourse," and "your mother" into a tablet. Now researchers have done the inevitable and published an elevated dissection of said jokes in a reputable journal. Anyway... Babel rising is a simple game where you are tasked with preventing the construction of the titular tower of Babel using a variety of elemental powers. You can only pick two out of the four elements, and the tower can be built in three different eras, which helps to add a little variety. Not enough however, as the game is very repetitive and the fun of blowing up the little humans doesn't take terribly long to turn into a slog.
Good
-the 2 player versus mode is pretty fun
-explosions sending people flying everywhere
-plays smoothly and does everything it says on the can
Bad
-Gets old fast, desperately needs more variety
-the boat shooting mini game is terrible
-you never get to make all the people speak different languages and start killing each other as a power and you really should
All in all a quick throw away game, mainly worthwhile for the 2 player mode. If you want it get it on special as I don't think it's worth the asking price, but it's not BAD, just not very good
2.5/5
Repetative, addicting until you flushed it out. What you see is what you get.
For kids maybe but not for me.
Babel Falling
What I Liked
The premise was good, I guess.
What I Did Not Like
In the very short time I played this game, I didn't like it. The graphics were poor, the gameplay was bland, and it just bored me. Unfortunately I purchased the game prior to the refund system being in place. Had it been in place, I would have refunded it.
Why I Stopped Playing
Didn't like it, at all.
Disclaimer
I have been a gamer for over 30 years. I tend to play mostly PC games. I also bounce around between games A LOT. I may purchase a $60 game and play it for 2 hours or spend $10 on a game and spend 50 hours on it. Even if I played a game a short time, it does not mean it is bad. It just means another game caught my attention. I also complain about flaws in games a lot, even about the littlest of things. Keep that in mind when reading my reviews. If I do not have a complaint, then the game must be special!
Ok, I like the Bible, I like the Old Testament, I like games and stories that are borderline sacriligous.
I really don't care for this game. The premise is you have powers, like lightning bolts, or fireballs, or whatever, and you are going to throw them at people to stop them from building a tower. It's a little fun to hear the high pitched screams, but I found myself fighting with the controls and not enjoying it.
Gets boring pretty quickly. The starting levels are too slow and by the time it gets challenging it's past boring. The sound loops fairly poorly as well and is like a sparatic fly in your ear.
Dissapointingly short. With no multiplayer scene for this game, you'd be pressed to get more than about five hours out of this title, and even then that's a comination of frustrating difficulty and quick pace, and ridiculously easy sections that pose no challenge. The idea is excellent, the execution is not.
The abilities you are given are a nice novelty, but after sustained play for a few hours they become dull, boring, ineffective and ignorable. I have to give credit for the designers for being able to make being a god feel... bland.
I wouldn't suggest you pick this up unless it's a heavily discounted sale. Uninteresting, Short, Frustrating and dull - which is such a shame, because I had high hopes for this title
If you have an Nvidia card, don't waste your money. The game won't work with this card and will crash out on the 5th level.
I really like playing this game but i wish it worked with my card...
Id normaly like to point out the good points of any game I have playedm however after the first hadfull of "survive waves of this" "kill several hundred of that" story missions i jumped right into the newly unlocked (hard mode?) survival to try the full experience but with only 3 enemy types (5 including ship shoot down events and siege towers) and 4 spell types which u can only use 2 of at a time and have relativly similar 3 ability efects including super move it was one of the more repetative 50 minutes of my life i wont get back.
one of the few games i failed to look up game play fore before hand, a good idea but it feels like something that could have been on one of the oldschool standalone handheld games.
EDIT: More urgently than my original review below, this game flat out DOES NOT RUN on many modern graphics cards, and it's been made clear there are zero plans to provide support in the future. DO NOT BUY.
This game concept, character models, and sound effects are all what I'd call "cute". The gameplay, however, falls short of anything appealing. It may have been decent had the campaign missions been a bit shorter and if your powers had more variety, but when the game tasked me to drop rocks on workers' heads for 10 minutes straight, the novelty of the goofy death screams quickly wore off.
In short, Babel Rising is a towering example of a game that's simplistic and repetitive to a fault. Pass over it.
I thought this would be a cool physics game where you could destroy the tower. Boy was I in for a disappointment.
You basically just shoot little people over and over, sometimes with different sequences of powers. It's dull, repetitive gameplay. So dull.
Not a god game, not a physics game. Just something that plays like one of those early 80's video games but with nicer graphics.
Fun God game. Taking out the people below with the typical 4 elements: Fire, Water, Earth and Wind. You are only aloud to choose two per round so try to figure out some cool combinations of attacks you can do with certain elements and also take into consideration if the people are resistant to a certain element. I also love how you have this stronger super attack that you can pull off with each element, really adds to the "I'm over powered" feeling. Another nice time killing game.
I recomend Staying away from this waste of money. the game allows the use of 2 godly picked from the 4 elements, earth wind fire water, only thing is some powers are like rain for water or a small stone for earth. the objective is to stop the people building the tower there is not progression no upgrades how you start is how the game continues Played for a hour before completely lost any will to play the game again.
0.5/10
In den Top 3 meiner Videospiel fehlkäufe, wer sich das kauft fliegt von meiner FL.
It's in the top 3 of my worst videogames that I bought, whoever buys it will get kicked of my FL.
2/10 auf der Molle-Skala
2/10 on the Molle-scala
Not really what I was expecting...very monotonous gameplay. Supposed to be a casual game, but still very, very boring. The idea is cute, but not worth the money, even as a way to just kill some time.
A simple game easy to understand and awesome to relax by unleashing your destructive powers.
The only downside is that it was obviously created to be played on a smartphone and not with a mouse which makes the games controls just really hard to use. The consequence is that you don't feel 'in control" as you should.
Otherwise graphics are great, music simple but effective and you will learn the hard way that being an angry god is quite difficult (too difficult perhaps...)
So I recommend this game if you intend to offer it to a friend as a simple gift or if you want to spend 5 minutes on it when you have nothing else to do. Do not expect anything more than raw mindless destruction and do not imagine you will spend hours on it.
Babel Rising gives us a tower defense game where you play the role of a God. You have 4 powers, earth, water, wind and fire and they all come with 3 powers. Left-clicking executes the most basic spell, and it's mostly used for small groups. Right-clicking allows you to take out multiple enemies and finally holding the middle mouse button will grant you the most powerful spell, like a flood or a rolling boulder. With these powers your goal is to stop the villagers from building a tower. If they complete it, it's game over. You have no other abilities or towers (except for your powers) to stop them so it's a bit primitive for a tower defense game.
So far I wouldn't recommend it. No, you're better off with TD games like Orcs Must Die or Anomaly.
[Rating: 56/100]
Fun little game, but there is nowhere in the system specifications that says "you need an Xbox to play multiplayer..." just "Key Features: ... -Battle with or Against Friends
Enjoy competitive and cooperative multiplayer modes."
Player two has no way to control his/her cursor (there's only one mouse on my computer, don't know about yours) and can't "Press A" -_-
Once again Ubisoft is a part of a big letdown, namely the release of an unfinished product (or in this case an unfinished port) with a cool concept.
