Castaway 2! Before getting too into the ratings, let's do an overview shall we? I actually liked this game a little bit. It's music was good, it's graphics passable, and I could ignore the repetitive gameplay due to the various training, spellcasting, story elements etc. If you haven't played it, it's not a bad timewaster for you. With that said, we might as well break apart the game itself.
Let's start from the top and work our way down shall we?
As far as physical goes, the audio is actually the highlight of the game. The music and sound effects are actually really well done (Even though they can be annoying at times) The graphics aren't too bad either, although they're not the greatest scenes of art, for a flash game they're pretty good.
Physical qualities: 9/10
Gameplay! It's sluggish, simplistic, and in the more boring of rpg categories. Still they're not difficult to follow, the storyline is decent, and there is some customization. The better parts are the extras such as easter eggs, and pet, quest components. All in all the gameplay is easy to sum up at an unimpressive 6/10
Replayability? Not too great. I'd put it in the three-four category just because it isn't a bad gane overall. It's worth going through it once, but I'd probably never do it again. 3/10
Hack Power. That's a bit of an unexciting one. You don't have much to work with other than numbers here. Number of items, attributes, exp, gold etc. No really fun ones like superspeed, gravity etc. 2/10
Even so, this game is actually pretty decent, even though so many of the scores rank so low. Prehaps it's because I'm biased or perhaps it's because they break the fourth wall so many times. Either way I'll end up giving this game a 6/10, for it's great music, good storyline, decent graphics, repetitive gameplay, poor replayability, and plain/completely boring hacks. Sure it's easy to hack, but the idea is to have fun, and that's something this game has only given me a small bit of.
