- Tunguska, on 10/11/2007, -1/+54I thought it would be making a castle out of cards.
- Quellman, on 10/11/2007, -0/+15Good time waster since a game can last forever, especially since you don't always get the cards you need or can use. This unbalance helps random but hinders game play. Will play a few times then likely to discard like all web games.
- Majorcrash, on 10/11/2007, -0/+14hold control and click.
- Robologicon, on 10/11/2007, -4/+17Interesting concept, but the game is too random for my taste.
- OneHine, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12There would be a lot more strategy if you could discard as many cards as you wanted. As it is, you can have 10 builders and 1000 bricks and still lose simply because you never get any decent building cards and can never improve your chances to acquire any.
- crobinso, on 10/11/2007, -1/+12pretty funny to watch the chat log and see the regulars gasping about how many peeps are playing, and realizing it was a digg effect,
- bonyicecream, on 10/11/2007, -1/+11The original version of this game is from gemtree.com, I believe. screencap of it: http://gemtree.com/SHOOT/ants.gif
http://gemtree.com/program.htm -- a list of all of the games made by gemtree. This is Ants, the first game listed under Puzzles.
I've had the original for ages (seriously, like 4 or 5 years), it's just a 640x480 .exe game, and you can play in czech or english. The game used to be publicly available, but I think you have to buy the peter software on gemtree.com to get it now.
I'm glad to see a flash version of the game though. It's really quite fun. But seriously, it's way more fun in Czech.
arrrghh, can you not discard in this version!? >.> - burkay, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9I am craving magic the gathering now...
- doddilus, on 10/11/2007, -1/+10"I managed to use three 'curse' cards in a row, because my opponent was too busy attacking me with 2 and 3 damage attacks."
probably because thats all he could get, meanwhile you pull 3 curse cards out of your ass - shinynew, on 10/11/2007, -3/+11Its also HIGHLY unbalanced.
- rkiga, on 10/11/2007, -2/+10ya, not just random, but very shallow on strategy.
lame - keviniskool, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8Try Command-click
- notyourbroom, on 10/11/2007, -1/+6Looks like an Arcomage clone.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcomage - jerryknight, on 10/11/2007, -2/+7Apologies... "storey" is the British spelling.
- uberdeutsch72, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4computer cheats religiously
- crackerXcore, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5I really suck at this game, it always seems like I'm getting bad cards and the computer gets good ones, it had +5 builders +3soldiers and + 4 Sorcerers, I didn't get any of those cards that round.
This games just seems to make me angry, but I do like the concept and it is fun - plosfas, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3Nevermind my above comment. It works fine in firefox.
- Ighuc, on 10/11/2007, -4/+6My god this is addicting...
- acdcfanbill, on 10/11/2007, -3/+5its downright annoying to watch an opponent get their stats up to 5 builders, soldiers and magic, while i end up with only one card to level up my builders. far too random choice in cards imho.
- marsrover21, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1The annoying thing is that NetPlay only works for some people.
- marsrover21, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1It's supposed to be random.
- saschi123, on 09/19/2008, -0/+0The Game do not opens HELP!!!
- marsrover21, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1I don't find that at all.
- bakkouz, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Yep, still is a lame game :)
- gadiez, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2I like game
- brettville, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2Okay, here's the thing that sucks about working for yourself. Long gone are the days when I could bill the ad agency for time wasted on a game like this. I just lost two hours of productivity to a stupid castle game...that I lost.
- inactive, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Wow, you ain't kidding.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcomage - qwerty54321, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Anyone else have trouble with it bogging down their computer? I was enjoying it, but it got slower and slower until I had to reboot! It *is* too random, and I also didn't notice any difference between the beginner/experienced modes.
- jayhawk88, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2Wow, that's it. I knew I'd played this game somewhere before, kept thinking it was a FF minigame but I knew that wasn't right.
- gamblingexpert, on 10/06/2008, -0/+0Great! And here http://playrummyonline.blogspot.com/ you can learn about third most played cards game - Gin Rummy
- snolan1990, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0the online play has a friendly community
great fun to scare people by saying you have banshee then using archer - plosfas, on 10/11/2007, -2/+2No he means when you cmnd-click on a mac it brings up the context menu. It means I can't play all the way through this game.
- EQGelu, on 10/11/2007, -3/+2yay arcomage flash game :)
- Boddhistava, on 10/11/2007, -1/+0Arcomage online, this is the same principle but a better game.
http://arcomage.welscotch.net/ - yuuko, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1anyone managed to get multiplayer working? i cannot connect to server.
- sadjoker, on 10/11/2007, -3/+2http://img168.imageshack.us/img168/9461/castlevp8.png
Computer pwned on expert... while he was researching i built the tower. - EQGelu, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1is there a way to play arcomage online, but see it in english?
http://arcomage.welscotch.net/ - knulpm, on 10/11/2007, -4/+2What the hell? I've gone through countless rounds without any ability to build my tower....I'm down to nothing and just swatting at the other guys. Waaaay too random.
- sadjoker, on 10/11/2007, -4/+2My castle @99 for like 20 card pickups... enemies castle to 0 ... my builders/magic/soldiers to 11/12 .. enemy to 1 ... i consider that for a total pwnage. Had around 300 bricks and 250 crystals.
- Narcowski, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1The server just went down...
- snowmanchris, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1The original game is actually from the Might and Magic computer game. The idea is exactly the same, build up you're wall, and destroy the enemies using gems, stone, and cards.
- PhilH, on 10/11/2007, -5/+3It's not "lame", it just requires a little strategy in order to win. You need to think about what kind of cards your opponent might be holding, and keep an eye on any rapidly rising values.
I managed to use three 'curse' cards in a row, because my opponent was too busy attacking me with 2 and 3 damage attacks. - sergeylarionov, on 10/11/2007, -2/+0Is there more dificult versions of that game? This one has no balance at all.
- b0relli, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1i lost 5 times in a row on beginner, then won the first game on experienced
- JamesBloom, on 10/11/2007, -5/+3This is just Arcomage from might and magic
- Nidy1, on 10/11/2007, -2/+0Hm...
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v482/Nidy/castlewar.jpg - inactive, on 10/11/2007, -2/+0Yeah I love how I can have all the bricks I'll ever need, but the computer just draws pixies and babylon within a few turns of eachother and pretty much wins automatically. Pretty typical scenerio in this (crap) game.
- bakkouz, on 10/11/2007, -8/+5Ok, this is lame.
took me about 30 seconds to abandon the game. - Merb, on 10/11/2007, -5/+2YES! i was trying to remember where it's from, it's a complete rip off. even the three types are the same.
- bakkouz, on 10/11/2007, -5/+2it is still a lame game :)
