Flee - Review

Atabow is offering the Windows Phone game Flee over at the Marketplace. Abscond reminds me a lot of the erstwhile board game Sorry and yous tin can test your skills confronting the computer or an online customs.

Unproblematic, yet effective, graphics combined with an enjoyable gaming concept makes Abscond a game worth trying. To find out more than on this Windows Phone game, make the jump by the interruption.

Game Layout

Abscond's layout is uncomplicated and makes use of the Metro blueprint. The principal pages are spread out over horizontally navigated pages. You tin can choose to play against the Windows Telephone or Online, view the Leaderboards, view the Help section, and access the settings (setting upwards your screen proper name and mute sound).

The online game randomly invites others Abscond players to a game. The only downside to this option is that there doesn't announced to be many Abscond players out there. If none are available for an invite, you lot'll receive an error message.  I also had several occassions where the server wasn't available for online play.

The game board layout is just every bit simple every bit the master carte du jour is. Y'all take a grid like pattern and two base camps. One for you (past default the Bluish Actor) and 1 for your opponent. Each camp/starting bespeak has four pieces or pins, that have to be moved along the grid to the house that sits in the middle of the screen.

Movement is done by spinning a wheel that sits at the bottom of the screen. The object of the game is to move all your playing pieces into the house.

Along the journey you lot accept "?" spaces that give you some other spin of the wheel and "X" spaces that volition send you back to your base camp. While y'all tin't occupy the aforementioned infinite with more one playing piece, if your opponent lands on a infinite you're on, your piece goes back to base camp.

Overall Impression

Game play wasn't terribly difficult but at that place is a bit of strategy involved. Some might prefer to work on pin at a time across the board, while others like to get their pins out of the base camp as quickly as possible.

While enjoyable to play, Abscond lacks an addictive quality to it. There's only nothing to grab you and continue y'all coming dorsum for more. It is, however, a nice game to have in yous library for a alter of pace.

Still, the game has potential.  I think if the developer can address the server problems for online play and as the online player community grows, Flee volition accept more appeal.

Abscond is an advertisement-supported, free game and you can download it here (opens Zune) at the Market.
