Rummy Posted November 14, 2016 Posted November 14, 2016 Almost a month on and thought I'd give this a bump! I got stuck in P&DZ a few weeks back - kept dying at a boss dragon thingy called El Dorado or something(fire based) and gave up caring too much to fix myself up to beat him. Thought I'd tip over to trying the Mario side of things. Mario is HARD. It's different enough too, though. The lack of fluff(simple overworld, going back to stages quick and easy even after death) has kinda kept me going with it, though I certainly found myself 'grinding' a bit more for certain monsters/items on some of the 3-colour levels. The leader bonuses are quite interesting - I've more recently moved to the Luigi/Mario leader combo where both give bonus attack if attacking with 3 combos or more, and I've just this morning unlocked the Boo leaders which have a pretty sick bonus if you can pull it off(especially doubled-up) - with that I think I'm now just onto World 5? I've been evolving where I can, choosing priority and variety depending on items/allies I want usually going for the high/hard hitters over HP/RCV; but that's just how I generally play. I've only just realised with it the relatively low limit on lives - I thought they'd clock over but apparently not?? I've wasted many a free life due to being too stubborn to use continues! Whilst harder than PnD I'm weirdly not getting too frustrated. I think given I've managed to overcome all of my stuckness on the Mario side so far, I'm gonna keep playing this til I finish or get stuck again; then move back to PnD. All in all though not too shabby a game. For what set me out just over a tenner I think I've already clocked 30+ hours, not too bad at all!
