The concept of the game was interesting. You start with a character/gladiator, and are given 3 fights a day to get XP and level up, making your character a much better fighter.
There were two big problems with this game!
The most common screen you'll ever see on MyBrute
#1 - The MyBrute server is almost ALWAYS down! So a game that might normally take a month to make a cool character in, takes vastly longer.
#2 - When the server is running, it tends to crash at odd times. So sometimes you'll have a series of epic battles and lose XP instead of gaining it, or you won't get any XP...
Needless to say, MyBrute was entertaining when it was running, but frustrating when it wasn't!
Just the other day though, I discovered a new game that I've started playing. Urban Rivals is like MyBrute in several ways but without the horrible bugs included. Like MyBrute, Urban Rivals is a free game.
Urban Rivals allows you have more than one character. In an interesting Pokemon/RPG twist, the game involves collecting character cards and improve on your characters in a battle setting. Each character has strengths and weaknesses, and how you use them in battle determines how much XP you get. Unlike MyBrute, there is no limit on the amount of gameplay in a single day. I made it to level 10 on my first day after a couple hours of play - Getting to level 10 on MyBrute took me 8 months!
I'm having much more fun playing Urban Rivals. Come play with me! Here's the link to play: Urban Rivals.
