If you've read my Facebook wall lately, you'll be able to see that I've been busy lately with one particular application - Elven Blood.
For those who had been brought up with printed fantasy classics such as "Choose your own adventure" or "Lone Wolf" type of adventure games, you'd understand how easily you can get engrossed on this app like I have.
This is how the game generally goes: You start off in an idyllic village called Windy Hill and start collecting stuff, fighting monsters through quests along the way until you gain enough experience and stuff to proceed to other locations (I'm now at Clairemonferan Arctic stocking up on Silver Edges). You can also engage in "wars" with other fellow "Elves", adding a personal vendetta element to the mix as well.
However, there are limits to where you can go and how fast you can go, due to the number of available moves (stamina) and stuff that you need (requirements) at any point in time. One of the most challenging requirements (in my opinion) would be the party size in order to qualify to reach some of the harder locations (my next requirement would be a party of 13 to reach the Elder Tree Crater) once you've mastered the basics. This requires you to get friends to come on board your party - fortunately, there's several forums that you can tap on to get these "friends" quickly.
I thought it was quite a cool game and was sucked in rather quickly. It's been quite a challenge to resist the "one more 'Do Quest' click" or "another 240 seconds to go before recouping 2 stamina" addiction.
If you like fantasy gaming, you'd be Hooked on Blood.
Since you're doing so, why not join my party first?
