【Evaluation Background】

"Beast Battle" is a multiplayer casual battle mobile game recently launched by 4399 mobile game. Since its combat format is quite similar to "Beast Battle", which has become popular on the Internet earlier, it will inevitably be compared. However, after actual experience, I believe any player can see the significant difference between the two.

Today's review will focus on the differences between "Beast Battle" and "Beast Battle". I hope that through comparison, players who like this type of game can have more knowledge about the new work "Beast Battle".

【Game Screen】

The style of "Beast Battle" is relatively cartoonish. The main characters in the game, "worms" of all sizes, are cute and colorful, which is very appropriate to their casual mobile game positioning.

From the background of the game's main combat scenes, "Beast Battle" adopts the design style of a honeycomb grid, which is different from the cross grid of "Beast Battle". But this seemingly ordinary change can not be ignored.

On the one hand, a honeycomb mesh composed of hexagons, as the background of the game screen in a 2D picture environment, can make players more accurate in grasping coordinate points, thereby enhancing the game's strategy and control depth - this is similar to the principle that many SLG or war chess games use cellular mesh instead of cross mesh.

On the other hand, compared with cross mesh with only monotonous vertical and horizontal lines on the entire screen, the hexagonal honeycomb mesh is less likely to cause visual fatigue to players.

It is also worth mentioning that the "food" for players to compete for in "Beast Battle" are shining spots, and are no longer the simple color blocks in "Beast Battle", which also makes the player's visual experience more comfortable.

【Combat Rules】

The importance of core gameplay rules to a casual mobile game is self-evident. In this regard, although "Beast Battle" seems somewhat similar to "Beast Battle", it is actually very different.

In "Beast Battle", the player controls a "worm" that can crawl and move at will in the game scene. As the color "light spots" are refreshed randomly in the scene, or left by the dead opponent, the bugs will continue to grow longer. When the bugs' heads hit the edge of the map, or the body of other players' bugs, they will be "dead" and resurrected at the original length.

Simply put, "Beast Battle" is aThis game is designed based on the famous "Snake" mini game and incorporates multiplayer battle mode.

Compared with "Ball Battle", "Ball Battle" has the following differences in rules -

1. In "Beast Battle", no matter which player on both sides has a longer insect, as long as the head hits the other party's body, it will be "dead" immediately. Therefore, the small insects "destroy" the big insects. Even when the length is extremely different, the advantage may be instantly killed by the disadvantaged party.

2. In "Beast Battle", the dead bugs can only leave behind some relatively limited "light spots", and the length added to the winner is therefore relatively limited. Unlike "Beast Battle", the growth rate of the big ball after eating the small ball is extremely fast, making the winning player's advantage easily widen;

3. In "Beast Battle", the insects cannot split, nor do they have the ability to "spray the ball" similar to "Beast Battle", but they can use the method of sacrificing their own length to accelerate movement - continuously accelerate, and the length will continue to be shortened. Sudden acceleration is the main method to eliminate opponents in "The Battle of the Bugs", and small insects can often eliminate large insects through short acceleration;

4. In "Beast Battle", the "big bugs" who are temporarily leading may capsize in the gutter if they are not careful, and they cannot hunt opponents as unscrupulously as the big balls who have a greater advantage in "Beast Battle". They need to be vigilant at all times - this is also the unique fun of "Beast Battle";

5. Unlike the simple pursuit in "Ball Battle", the unique rules of "Ball Battle" make it often use circle-based capture in actual combat, but it is also more likely to have the situation of "mantis stalking the cicada oriole behind", which is more rich and interesting in strategy.

It is not difficult to find from the comparison of the above rules that for new players or players who join a certain game in the middle, the rules of "Beast Battle" are more humane, and not like "Beast Battle", novices can only become "food" that veterans compete for - the weak little bugs not only have more opportunities to counterattack and "kill" big bugs, but also players who enter the game first will not easily quickly open up too much of a gap with players who enter the game later.

Even to some extent, small insects are more flexible and lightweight, and do not have too long tails to be exposed. Compared with large insects, they are often more convenient to shuttle through the battlefield and find opportunities"Pick up the bargain".

【Operation feel】

Because the shape is relatively close and it is a mobile game product, "Beast Battle" is more similar in basic operations to "Beast Battle" - the virtual rocker controls the movement direction, and the virtual button on the other side releases the skill.

However, there are big differences between the feel and operation details.

In terms of feel, since the insects controlled by the player are similar to the "snake" in the mini-game, the operation experience is richer than the simple sphere movement in "Ball Battle". At the same time, there is only one special skill that can be activated at any time and can be stopped at any time, allowing players to focus more on mobile operations, and thus allowing all Android mobile phone players to greatly narrow the gap with simulator players when performing fine operations.

Of course, it is precisely because of the above factors that if you want to become a real master, "Beast Battle" has higher requirements for positioning and movement - simply put, "Beast Battle" has extremely low operational threshold, but in time, players will have greater room for improvement.

In addition, in "Beast Battle", players only need to control one bug character, and do not have to spend time on multiple balls behind their clones like "Beast Battle". Therefore, with the update of subsequent versions, "Beast Battle" can add more skills beyond the current acceleration ability, without worrying that players have no time to operate. In the future, whether it is to give insects more personal skills or add settings like legion skills, it is very convenient.

【Overall Evaluation】

Although "Beast Battle" is similar to the multiplayer online gameplay of "Beast Battle", it has many unique "micro innovations" in core gameplay rules - the classic "snake" is cleverly used in it, thus allowing the "big ball eating small balls" that players have long been accustomed to being intercepted and collisions between "bugs", which not only narrows the gap between new and old players, but also allows novices to enjoy the pleasure of counterattack, but also strengthens the operation feel, allowing the "technical party" with flexible minds, quick responses and accurate operations to fully utilize their strengths and find a relatively ideal balance between accumulating advantages and pursuing operations.

The only thing that is slightly beautiful is that "Beast Battle" is a game that has been initially launched, and its completion rate is still insufficient, such as for players of this type of gameFor more attention to team confrontation or related gameplay, the Legion/Team system, voice and chat interaction functions have not been launched yet, and there is less beautification and decoration content such as skins. And all of these depend on the subsequent development of "Beast Battle".

Of course, overall, "Beast Battle" is already a rare masterpiece among the "Ball" mobile games recently with breakthrough thinking in micro-innovation, and is worthy of experience by every player who loves this type of game.
