A Video Game Marathon

The weekend before my spring break ended on April 12th, I decided to have a video game marathon. Just before I started, I figured I could write a tiny post for sharing my experience and viewpoint on each game. Below are the games I played, and my review for each.


Jetpack Joyride: The challenging part is; getting very far and beating missions that require you to collect no coins for a certain length. I would recommend this game because the hard missions teach you patience and a lesson that things don’t come easy. I like that you can buy cool objects that do amazing things. I  would rate this game 7.99 on a scale of 0 to 10.


Subway Surfers: I like it because the game makes you want more and you can’t stop playing. The challenging part is the way you have to go through lots of obstacles early in the game. I would recommend this game because it helps your imagination and creativity grow. I would rate this game 10 on a scale of 0 to 10.


Temple Run 1: I don’t like this game because there are many monkeys chasing one person. It should be one on one just like it’s in Temple Run 2. I like that there are different stages, like bridge, mountain, and wood. I think the challenging part is getting off all of those stages safely. The mountains are really the hardest. I would recommend this game because it teaches people that sometimes a group of other people will be after you when you are the only person in your group and if you are in that situation you just have to stand up for yourself. I would rate this game 9.87 on a scale of 0 to 10.


Temple Run 2: I like than you can catch items like treasure chests to win a prize. This game teaches you that you have to work hard to get something. I don’t like that you have to buy some of the people. I think the people should come free. Also, I think that you should have more than one person to start off the game. I would recommend this game because it helps you think big. Unfortunately, I have to rate this game 6.35 on a scale of 0 to 10.


Pocketcraft: I would not recommend this game because it is very confusing to operate. I hate this game because you can’t do anything but dig holes. After you dig a hole you get lost in it. Even if you find the entrance out, your tank can’t go forward. Also, there are no directions to tell you how you play. In survival mode, you can’t kill a cow. I tried to kill one and even though I stuck my tank into it, the cow didn't die. The cow even started bleeding, but it wouldn't die. Instead the cow blew my tank up into a thousand pieces. I hate this game and would rate it 0 on a scale of 0 to 10.


Angry Birds Go: I like this game because you can race other people’s cars and own things. You can also race the computer. You can buy strength. I would recommend this game because it teaches you about real life. In life you have to race people in inventions just like you have to race people’s cars in this game. The people in real life want to invent something before you. It’s the same thing in this game, except with cars. I hate that there are many bugs (software bugs) in this game. When I was trying to race, it didn’t let me launch my car. Instead dancing pigs were everywhere. On top of that, it made me lose a cupcake, the object that allows you to race. I would rate this game 9.35 on a scale of 0 to 10.


Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the game marathon! At least now I am not tempted on a daily basis to play video games. One thing though is that these games give you a false impression that all video games are good and we may get addicted to video games which is a bad habit indeed.
