Vigil: the legend came to our iPhone and iPad

Perhaps there is no greater happiness for gamers than the revival of the legends of the past to the current mobile platforms. Do you remember the Demiurge? Yes, the same ones from the beard in 2001. Then Nival just blew up the gaming industry, releasing the incredible quality of the product, and literally just in the App Store finally unreleased iOS-version of Etherlords. The same universe, the same developer and adapted to the particular sensory mobile devices gameplay. And yet it is free and without intrusive donation! However, first things first.

The first thing you notice after the start of the game - the graphics. She is very, very, very cool. Full 3D with high-quality textures, abundantly watered vivid special effects and dynamic camera moving over the battlefield, and creates the effect of the presence of rocking and shaking during battle.

After the first battle, conducted in the tutorial, you just look at the screen with wide eyes and running to show all this beauty to a friend / colleague / closest to you random person saying, "Look, how has reached the schedule on the mobile."

It should be noted that the adaptation of the universe under the mobile interface has caused a shift in the genre. We continue to the Demiurge, traveling through the worlds and restore them, but now the focus of the game is made in the armies fighting (read Duel mode) and strategic component, in view of the inconvenience tapov of small objects on the screen phone or tablet, gave way puzzle-component. By traveling from one world to another, we restore them, but we do it in accordance with the increasingly complex criteria. Simply put, there will have to strain your brain.

For the construction of the world need a resource - plate. Initially, the plates are given a little, and get new we can, fighting the armies of other Demiurge. Actually, on that order "to war-built" built all the gameplay.

For successful participation in the fighting army requires, and here in front of us all the same painfully familiar faction creatures. Representatives of the throw, Vitale and a randomly moved into the world and now mesyatsya with each other under the control of Etherlords.

A rational approach to the formation of the troops - the key to victory. Slot in the squad just three, and therefore need to squeeze the most from them. In fact, the fraction is not critical and carries more decorative sense, and to the fore the level, type of unit and its special ability.

There are ordinary, that is, ordinary beings. This is our resource for the launch and subsequent material changes. Traveling through the worlds and fighting with new monsters, we can get them at their disposal. Among them are unique beings - their maximum limit and combat characteristics above. Next come the rare creatures. They are significantly more powerful and have their own spells that can not be found in the usual monsters.

To reinforce its troops in the game has a synthesis - a merger of two or more units in one, which has got some of their strength and experience. This process is not so simple and has its own nuances. For example, a fusion beings one fraction gives more experience, and the fusion beings identical the value even higher. Sometimes the player luck and it offers access to a perfect synthesis. In this case, the amount of generated source being just a great experience, but the process requires a special resource that is mined in the battles.

It remains to tell what is a battle. Real comes in three lines, and the creature always attacks with a priority on its front. Fight step by step, and during the course units trade blows. During this time filled with a strip at the bottom of the screen. When it reaches a maximum, time stops and the player selects the special ability of some of the soldiers should be applied today. At the beginning of the game you can be relaxed to act as enemies much weaker and does not represent a serious threat. Everything changes with the advancement of the plot. When the enemy is strong (especially if it's the boss or the battle for the treasure chest), improper placement of his fighters and illiterate use spells are guaranteed to lead to the sink and even a rain of fire of the Demiurge will not be able to reverse the outcome of the battle.

Note that throughout this article has never been mentioned Donat. The fact that he is here though is, but is useful only to fans to get hold of his army in various "collectible" legendary creatures. All resources needed to progress, always in stock. There is no shortage. Limitations on the number of moves, forcing you to wait for 30 minutes, is also available. Simply put, the infusion of money here has nothing to do with comfort in the gameplay, but for many fans genre buying over clever creatures contrary kill interest in the passage, because it is this and good Vigil. Beautiful universe that really pleases exciting adventures and can drag on for weeks. Nival back nicely.
