___________________________________Hello Hivers___________________________________
Quest For Stoken Alpha Pre-Launch went finally live a few days ago and I was stoked to test it. The game is created by @web-gnar and @gnarip12345 and is supported by @gnars and @skatehive. To celebrate QFS Alpha Pre-Launch OCD and Skatehive are organizing a contest where you can play the game and win some prizes like HIVE tokens,QFS POAPs and QFS NFTs.
You can check the original post of contest here:
Starting from the level 1 there are many litte screens with instructions about the keys of the game and how to play. You basically earning coins by pressing the X key at crypto wallets and fires and also by killing enemies. The Hive logos at the left corner is yours lives and the cannabis symbols is your stamina. You can also earn more cannabis by killing some enemies or by hitting Gnars symbols during the gameplay. The first level is pretty easy to pass for everyone, there are only a few enemies like gorilas and α flying saucer. Oh there is also another kind of "enemy" which is the bullets that comes out from some spots.
Reaching the level 2 you are moving through a rail bridge and up on buldings. The level expands also to an undeground steet. You have to search all of those areas if you want all the stoke coins. And here we have the real annoying enemies. FUCKIN PIGEONS... They are 100% the most annoying part of the game, those fuckers are everywhere and attacking you, so I can say for sure that picking pigeons as enemies is totally a succeed idea! There are also some big clouds moving through the game that does not allow you to see so this is an extra difficulty of this level. Although Level 2 was not a big trouble for me to pass.
Finishing level 2 you are entering the QFS Art Museum.
Level 3 is inside the museum where you can observe cool arts from the creator of the game @web-gnar. I loved the digital paintings and the colors are so cheerful and funky. I also forgot to mention about the cool sounds of the game which are changing from level to level. Loved them all, great work @gnarip12345. So here you will not find any stupid pigeons but you will have to deal with aliens, flying saucers and bullets and at some points at the same time so it has its difficulties. But generally it was a pretty easy level to pass.
Look at these cool famous arts. Fucking awesome!
Level 4 is settled in space so you mostly deal with aliens and flying saucers. There are more enemies than the previous levels so from this point things are getting harder.
For level 5 more enemies to kill and a bit more complex gameplay but I managed to pass it as well.
Level 6 was pretty short and easy level to pass. Starting by the outside of the pyramid and reaching the top you can earn many coins at this point which is really cool.
Getting to the inside of the pyramid you will meet an astronaut with america flag. He does some big jumps and his hits are really strong. I am not sure if you can beat him somehow, he killed me a couple of times so I ended up avoiding him and keep going with the rest level. You will also meet a couple of aliens but it is totaly an easy level to pass.
Reaching Level 7 you will meet some new flying creatures as an enemy. There are multiple enemies on this level so you have to move carefully and smart.
Level 8 is more complex and difficult than the previous levels. You will meet double enemies attacking you which make it harder to handle. The graphics are full of colors and flowers and I loved how it looks. On this photo you can see the point that you start the level with the flyng enemies at the bottom. There are some bugs on this level that I wanted to talk about.
If you go down from the point you started the level you will get to the scene from the photo above. There is no way out from this spot, you can not go up again cause there are spikes than will kill you. For this part I am not sure if it's a bug or is designed by purpose as a "trap". So the bug that I detected is that if you want to leave this spot the only way is move to the pentalpha which leads you four levels back at level 4. Despite the fact that you have to play again the four levels in order to keep going from the the bag was, it could be also a trick for reaching a higher score on the game and earn more lives.
Back again to level 8 trying not to fall on the bug again and keep playing.
As I told you before the graphics are awesome on this level with cool colors. It is actually a hard level to pass but if you make a good plan you can achieve it.
Level 9. The last and the hardest level to pass and reach the end of the game. Lucky me I had 19 lives to spend until game over. Hahah I didn't even knew that I could have so many lives😂. You can see from the begging of the level that it will be damn hard. You start by jumping the wall where no one is there and suddenly 3 enemies appear and surround you. It is impossible to get out of them without lose stamina cause they hit you instantly. If you manage to fight your way out of there you will be able to move to the rest of the level.
Keep moving to level 9 you will have to deal with more aggressive enemies and a lot of spikes so take it easy and not be in rush.
Moving to the up floor you will deal the same situation with your beggining. At first there is no one there and when you jump enemies appear and start attacking you. I lost my half lives until I made it to this spot so it is kinda impossible to win if you don't have many lives in advance for this level.
Finally killed most of the annoying enemies and made it to the last steps. To tell you the truth it was pretty hard. So, LET' MAKE HISTORY THEN!
So at this stage you will meet you last enemy, a gorilla! At first I decided to skip the crypto wallet in order to not risk falling into spikes and lose all the proccess I had made. Don't do it! You will not be able to enter the last door if you skip it cause this crypto wallet gives you the key to tha final level.
Finally reached the last door. Unbelievable!
Last level to enter the @skatehive and finsih the game! The graphics are awesome!
REVIEW
Quest For Stoken is a fun 2d game which I totaly enjoyed playing. The game has so many cool details from the cannabis stamina, the skate tricks which our heroe does until the Gnar guys. The graphics are awesome, every level had its own theme combined with the right enemies. I also loved all the digital paintings aroung the game. The colors are super cheerful and the music fits perfect to the gameplay. The difficulty of the game was gradually which was cool cause anyone can reach at least level 4. Also the enemies are well designed with the right amount of power.
Sometimes the bullets can be tricky cause they are not visible from some spots but I guess that's the part of difficulties a game should have. As I mentioned at level 8 there is a bug that leads you right away to level 4 again. This is something that should be fixed cause it is not cool when you have to play tha same levels again, It could also be a cheat for players in order to get a higher score so it is not that fair, especially when QFS adds the #play2earn element.
Generaly the game is pretty awesome and it is something that have been developed for only 6 months! So I am pretty sure that when it is fully developed it would nail it! Also at the final stage of the game you wil play for some rewards which would make it a 100% worth to play and earn game. I am really stoked about QFS game and I am looking forward to play the final game with more levels!
You can test the game as well at https://stoken.quest/ and write about your experience too. Make sure you check the link from the OCD contest at the top of my post, read carefully the instructions and join too!
