Dragon Age: Journeys – The Deep Roads

First thing I thought when playing this game was, yawn. The load time is well over 5 minutes. The loadout screen reminded me of Runescape, only Runescape takes a lot less time to load. However, I doubt anyone is interested in how long it takes to load, and rather how good the game is. I’m going divide it into my usual categories. Gameplay, Story, and Graphics.


Gameplay:

Gameplay is lag intensive, yes. However, it if you ignore that, it is very good. I couldn’t help comparing it to the PC game. Simple point and click, but there’s something elegant about the combat system. Whether it’s the many talents, or the party interface, it kept me interested. And it takes a lot for a flash game to keep me interested.


Story:

The story varies from the PC game a little, but it was very interesting all the same. The only problem was the way the game started. It bored me. The flash game had a lot to live up to, and in the end, it failed too. It’s worth a play if you don’t have the actual game, but if you’ve already played Dragon Age Origins, your going to be sadly disappointed.


Graphics:

The graphics were the high of the game. For a flash game, they are amazing. They even have different skins in for the character creation (like the real game) and the armor and weapons also change when the quality goes up. The pause screen is very like the actual game also.



So here’s how it ends up.

Gameplay: 5/10

Story: 7/10

Graphics: 9/10

Overall: 7/10


A good game in all, and definitely worth a play if you have the hardware to do it. You can find it here. The game has a good amount of gameplay in it.  At least an hour or two (considering it is flash based).

Canabalt

I came across this simple game where giant robot looking monsters are destroying your city and you have to run across the tops of building trying to escape as mayhem is unfolding.  It gets pretty addicting, and it’s kind of hard to stop playing.  Here’s the link.  Good if you need to waste some time and the music suits the situation you are in in-game.

Toss the Turtle

For those of you that visit flash sites on the regular, Kongregate and Newgrounds are probably places you frequent, when looking to waste some time.  This game caught my eye because of its high rating at NG and then it’s great looking art style when I started playing.


Read on for a short description and a link to the game.
