Phantom Crash

"Great Game for the ones that feel alone..... lol"

Phantom Crash is set in the future, and Japan is full of cut off areas. Here people old and young pass their time in Scobees, or SVs (which I like better). They rumble (battle) for New Yen, which is digital money. With NY you could purchase many things and it is essential for the upgrading of your music, scoobees, chips, and etc. Thankfully, everything is nicely explained in a tutorial when you start off.

Graphics : 10

Unbelievably, beautiful graphics ! It is breathtaking the way that they made everything more aesthetic to your eyes. And, the developers didn't miss a detail. From the shine, shade, shadows, and so on, it is down to a tee.

Sound : 10

The soundtrack just blew me away. There is basically every kind of music on it. Whether it be the hard sounds of Electric Eel Shock to the mellow music of nine sheep, it is awe-inspiring. And, when talking about sound effects during battle forget about, that entices you from the first rumble.

Gameplay : 10

You are glued to your screen for hours upon hours. Rumbles can last from about 45 seconds to 8 hours (if you're good).
This game is always moving. Something else that is fun to do is customize your SVs, because there are hundreds of weapons, colors, modules, and stickers.

Storyline : 7

It loses its flavor after a while. It is like getting off a massive sugar rush. The storyline is sometimes drab. The only thing that really saves this is the conversation between other characters, but still it doesn't do much for it. Another thing that is a bit annoying is that you stay in the same fields. It would be nice to have a little more variety here and there.

Replay Factor : 10

You would never notice that the days are renewed after sixty. It seems like it is just going on, but in a good way.

Multiplayer Value : 10

Great for groups ! It is sure to fill in hours or days of fun ! No matter how many people play (two or four could still have a ton of fun).

I recommend Phantom Crash to one and all. It is a fantastic game for any kind of gamer. You can find something interesting in this game for sure. Whether it is the way other characters interact, or the type of weapons you buy. Phantom Crash is like a precious game and it should get more recognition. GREAT GAME ! YOU MUST BUY !
