My Brute Web Game
So if you haven’t already seen it, there’s a new webgame making it’s rounds called My Brute. It’s a flash based (so you can’t play it on your mobile) fighting game. What pulls you in is the chibi-style drawings. Very colorful and over exagerated. What’s interesting is that you don’t actually control your character. My Brute’s system is as follows: make a character, find someone to fight, WATCH the fight play out. All actions in the fight are random, so you may be fighting with a sword one moment, and then decide to drop it and fight hand to hand. At times it can be a bit frustrating because you have a special move or weapon that your character is not using, but that’s part of it’s draw… it’s very much a “sim/god” game. You created a “life”, and now you just watch it go about it’s business. It taps into the voyueristic nature we all have. Regardless, it is fun, even thought you are limited to about 3 fights per day, which means you can only play for about 10 minutes.
Besides playing though, the most important thing is promoting the site and your character, for example, my http://blackskyy.mybrute.com is where you can fight my brute. By promoting your brute, you invite people to make a brute of their own, and in turn they become your “pupil”. Now, when your pupil gains a level, you also gain experience. The game is setup to be viral… welcome to Pyramid Gaming!!
Hope you have fun with this little time waster. Come find and fight me, search for BlackSkyy, or if you haven’t made a Brute yet, http://blackskyy.mybrute.com
