Dew's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sydney Shark]

Awesome.

This is one of those very arcady games; not deep on storyline or point, just pure, unadulterated meyham. The game itself is a lot of fun to play, and is just a big heap of addiction and fun. The graphics were solid, and really added another dynamic to the game itself. The addition of various chain reaction to the game can make for some wicked points as well as animation, and to be honest with you that's what I liked most about this game, the high scores wasn't a bat touch either.

[Level Up!]

Sort of remindes me of the super nintendo

This game really reminds me of those games like Mario that you used to play on the super Nintendo, and it really reminds of just how simple it is to make a good game. This game doesn't have any fancy graphics or amazing storyline, but in true mario fashion, this game seems to make you want to continue playing it regardless, and not only that, but enjoy it too. A sequel to this game would not be a bad idea in any retrospect, what you have here is something special.

[Achilles]

Fun game

This sort or reminds me of a bit of an adventure game along with a bit of action. I felt like once I got the hang of the game, it was easy and addictive. The graphics weren't particularly interesting in anyway, but for the most part, it was an enjoyable game. It'd be nice if there was some sort of tutorial involved, but the drop down menu explaining everything, albeit in a less than organized way was a neat alternative. All in all not a bad submission.

[Gravitee Wars]

A bit like worms

This game is definatly a lot like worms, and there's nothing wrong with that. I liked the interactive tutorial the game give and the ability to customize your characters, which worms did not have for the most part. The sounds are a nice touch as well as you can tell the explosions are realistic, and the music you chose to put in this flash wasn't too bad either. All in all a fun and addictive game.

[casino roulette game]

A bit dull.

I suppose, considering it's ten years ago this game is tough to critique, but the game itself isn't really all that great in general anyway. The graphics aren't too bad, but it doesn't give you the incentive to really play. There's no connection with anyone to the outside world, and the music gets way too annoying after a while. I mean, for the most part it plays like it says, but really that's all that it does. And in this day and age, you really need more than just the game itself.

[Blackjack Gold]

Not bad

Compared to some other games in the collection this one isn't half bad. I see you put effort into how well the game actually works, and how it looks as well. The graphics are about as good as you would expect a good game's to be, and the sound isn't half bad either. What is missing is some sounds from the audio portal, or some sort of music in general, the game is a bit too quiet outside of playing the hands, and although that, in some cases, can make you play more and more, I found it to be a bit boring because of it. Otherwise you have a solid game on your hands.

[Big Or Small]

Very average

This game is basically the bare bones of a casino game, and compared to many others in the category is probably one of the worst games there. The game plays exactly like it's supposed to for the most part, but with no sound, and no incentive to play it leaves me wondering if this was rushed or given up on. The game itself has no real graphical quality either, and there's no sense of human interaction provided. All in all, there's a ton of stuff you can do to improve this game, and as it is, it's really not much of a time waster, or enjoyable experience.

[ArmorSlots]

Well.. it's slots..

There's not much to say about a game like this; I mean it is slots after all. The first thing I noticed though, was the less than stellar graphics, which looked like they were done by someone that was just getting him or herself familiarized with the way flash works. The game, for a beginner, works well enough, but slots on its own isn't really enough to keep my attention. I found the game to be nice in that it had two different options to play as, but there's no real incentive to play on newgrounds, because they both essentially look and work the same. The music was a nice touch, but considering there were only three songs, left something to be desired. Overall, nothing too impressive.

[NG Black Jack V 1.1]

Not bad

Compared to some of the games in this collection, this is probably the one of the least advanced one. I found this game to be a bit too dull, and dreary, and the dark colors certainly didn't help you out on that. It's a nice little gadget type game; not really exciting enough to hold you down, and not bad enough to really hate. The game is a nice concept for sure, but it would've been nice if you fleshed it out a bit more. I find this game to be a lot like the pong submissions you get in the flash portal everyday, the user is great and happy about making pong, but pong itself is pretty lame by today's standards.

[Governor of Poker 2]

Very professional

This game put a very professional approach to the game of poker; adding a nice little story behind it and a bit of a setting as well, which was nice. What I didn't like was that some of the voice work did not sinc up well, as you had many instances where the actor would say "welcome to the city of" in one tone and the city in another. A little bit of extra time and work on this would have saved you that trouble. The game itself does have odd logic though, and maybe that's just the difficulty level, I found the game had instances where it would raise me for no good reason, unlike a regular real life player would. Other than that the game is a nice spin on the game of poker, you certainly did a fantastic job on it.
