Review
I recently had the opportunity to play My Tribe for the Nintendo DS, and I was very impressed. The game is a real-time strategy game in which the player controls a tribe of villagers on a tropical island. The player’s goal is to build a prosperous and sustainable community for their tribe by gathering resources, constructing buildings, and researching new technologies.
One of the things that sets My Tribe apart from other real-time strategy games is its unique “tribal AI” system. This system allows the villagers to learn and adapt to their environment even when the player is not present. The player can check back on their tribe at any time to see how they are progressing and to issue new commands.
I found the “tribal AI” system to be very well-implemented. The villagers were always busy working to improve their community, and they would often surprise me with their ingenuity. For example, I once left my tribe alone for a few hours, and when I came back, I found that they had built a new house and a farm.
The graphics in My Tribe are charming and colorful. The game’s world is full of lush vegetation and beautiful scenery. The villagers are also very well-animated, and they each have their own unique personality.
The gameplay in My Tribe is very addictive. I found myself constantly checking back on my tribe to see how they were doing. The game is also very challenging, as there are a variety of different obstacles that the player must overcome in order to build a successful community.
Overall, I highly recommend My Tribe to fans of real-time strategy games and to anyone looking for a fun and challenging brain teaser.
