"This game is above average."

Fortress is a game thats takes skill and knowledge to win. It is hard, but is very fun! It is a tetris like game with some warfare in there. It is quite a good mix. You play against the computer, or you can play with another person. There is a downside though...

Fun Factor:
This game is really fun! Build a tower blow up your opponent! Who thinks that isn't fun? YOu will find this game really fun of you play it with a friend. The multiplayer is what is really good about this. If you don't have a friend to play with it is still pretty fun.

Controls:
The controls were very simple and easy to understand. R is look around. B&A is turn around block. L is take of the top two layers and the D-Pad moves the blocks. Its that simple!
10/10

Storyline:
No storyline. You just play. This could have made the game a 9/10 instead of a 7/10.
0/10

Sound:
The music is good and the little guys on your fort(see playability) make funny noises. You won't hum the tune, but you won't hate it either.
9/10

Playability:
You get blocks and set them down tetris like. Also there are guns, bombs, and little house you can get. Guns attack, bombs bomb the other fortress, and huts make little Twerps. Twerps repair your busted blocks that have beem attacked. You play to a certain amount of points, and then you whoever gets there first wins. You get points by stacking blocks together and then they form together. If you form a lot pf them together in a row you get more points. Also you can get points if you blow up your opponents blocks.

There is one more thing I need to mention in Playability. If you stack a certain amount of blocks on top of eachother with no gaps you can make a tower. A tower summons monsters to attack your opponent. This can make or break a game.
9/10

Replayability:
You will play for a long time and then say ''this is kinda boring.'' Then after a longer time you will say ''This Sucks!'' But there is some good Replay value in it. It just gets kinda boring after a while.
8/10

Overveiw:
Some people like it, some hate it. Rent this game first because you might hate it, or you might love it. Pay at the most 30$ for this game. I think it's good, how about you? My final aswer is 7/10!
