Original take on an old game
I like this game a lot, playing roulette simulation games has always been a bit short on goals, basically you just wait to lose your money. But the ranking system and high score submission features are cool and original. Also the scrolling score and info ticker keeps up your interest. I well recommend a blast on this.
Video game roulette is boring in general.
1-Line Summary:
Video game roulette is boring in general, this game is much much worse.
Gameplay (4/10):
There isn't much to this game. All you really do is place bets and hit the spin button over and over again until you grow bored of doing so. For me, I got bored after the first spin. Probably the main reason why this game is so dull is because there is absolutely no reward system in place. The goal is to increase the amount of "nuggets" or money you have. By increasing the amount of money, you also increase rank. However, with no tangable rewards, there really is no reason to play after the first spin. Rewards could rangee from anything like short, funny animations, to collectables or trophies for accomplishing certain tasks. For example, it would have been nice to receive a trophy for winning 5 times in a row. Its these little things that can really hook a player into doing repetitive tasks such as this game.
Presentation/Graphics (6/10):
The actual presentation of the game isn't all that bad. The instructions are clear and easy to read. The graphics are a bit generic, though well drawn. However, it would have been nice to enlarge the betting table and make the Spin and Nugget Selections easier to see. It also would have been nice to animate the ball with the wheel to give it a more realistic touch.
Sound/Music (2/10):
To be completely honest, the music is extremely terrible. I rated this section a 2 just becaue there was an option to turn the music off. There is nothing worse than a low quality 5 second banjo loop that constantly plays over and over again. The SFX were very low and hard to hear (I use BOSE headphones.) Overall. the sound was mixed badly, and the music choice was terrible.
Overall (4/10):
This game is bad, don't even bother playing it. You're better off going to Yahoo or AOL and play their casino games. Casino games played with fake currency don't really work unless there is an addictive element or goal orientated gameplay. Unfortunately, this game is neither addictive or goal orientated. Along with the terrible sound, I would just move onto the next game.
please add
a data field with the prevous numbers and colors like they do in casinos, it makes it easier to rule at it, I got up to 5000
5/5
INNOVATION PLEASE!!
New stuff always makes betting games better, so next time i suggest you try something new out.
Although i did like that i could move up the ranks. i kept gettting stuck at towwn drunk though.
Quality
my one suggestion is to add a quality toggle, you could have better graphics on this game for those that can run it.
and ... thats it.. your game is very easy to use I dont know how to play roulette and i did pretty well (if you call putting all of your money on red winning and walking away from the table a system) and i can not think of any enhansments that can be made.
and this score is from some one that dose not care for gambling you should be very proud.
