So your probably wondering what a Guilty game is. A guilty game is simply that, a game you are guilty to be playing, or ashamed to be enjoying. For instance, if you and all your buddies hate poke'mon and you find yourself with nothing to do and play lets say poke'mon red or something and enjoy it! Then its your guilty game. Every true gamer has one, even if they don't admit it or I have actually seen instances where the person was so deep in denial that they had convinced THEMSELVES that they did not like it. A buddy did not like halo due to boring game play, but loved modern warfare 2... BUT ONLY THE GAME PLAY. Deny it as much as you like but strip the characters, the plot and such away and the game play is the same thing.
So this fourm wouldn't be fair if i did not tell my Guilty game as well so here it is... Magic Pengel. A game that was made for young girls and Boys who need a way to tell their mommy they are in a closet. However there is no way I can deny its fun. The story is horrid, Apparently this world's animals come from little pixie things doodling. Every one had a pixie of their own and there were doodles galore... though i'd imagine if that happened here there would be a lot of cock-o-diles. Anyway to make the doodles (yes thats what they actually call them in game) you need these little color gems called color. Then some guy finds more fun things to do with Doodles than keep them as pets and started makings as many doodle slaves as he could. The pixies (aka the Pengels) got all hissy about him ripping off poke'mon that they all left. However they come back every now and then to serve people with pure hearts.
Now that i am done with the girly bit i can move on to what I like about the game. There are two stages to game play, making doodles and fighting other doodles. Making the doodles is the best part although you have to battle to earn the color, the new parts and the brushes. Making the doodle at first is difficult and your first one is going to be a blob with another blob sticking out that you told the game is a arm, but when you get the hang of it you can make some really cool stuff. I had three demons each biased on their own element and each with different strengths. Making doodles like that is really freaking hard! The game tells you earlier that doodles are baised one the three attacks of punch, magic, and block but leaves telling you that. then when you get into combat you see the joys in specializing. Combat is a game of rock paper, with one attack beating another, and that may sound dull but the design of the doodles takes so much into it. Its like playing a mech game where you spend hours picking out the best parts, fine tuning them all and the watch it tear the other mech limb from limb. With the exception of the fact that they are all colorful and cute.
(Look at this! this is actual game play)
The best part? Bosses... Yeah you would think that a game like this would have poor bosses, but thats not true. Imagine a orc in a peewee hockey game, then about every ten minutes Godzilla comes in and stomps on him. You go through the game with the same blob for a while, ignoring the new parts you can make and the new colors and brushes you have unlocked because he is working fine... then you fight your blob against a military jet! (i'm not kidding, there is a boss that is a futuristic military jet that shoots missiles!) So you go back and make a decent Doodle to see if you can hold Godzillas foot up a while longer this time.
Come to think of it... the best way to make you understand how fun it is... say some one made a Dead Rising clone, but now they where school girls and you dont kill them, you 'beautify' them. yes now its gay but it still would have the same game play. so what im saying is this is a great game that just put on the wrong suit.
Anyway i dont expect your reviews of your guilty game to be this big, but give us a understanding of why your guilty to enjoy it and why you do like it.
