Jack's Tribe Editor's Review

jacks tribe is an adventure/strategy game which has slight issues on the “being a game” front. This might sound like a harsh statement, but the entire game seems like it is a facebook game without the facebook or the micro transactions to nickel and dime you while you play. Sound like a confusing statement? This is because the game is constantly trying to get you to use more resources, and giving you longer wait times, while trying to keep you addicted. This might be an ideal way for someone who enjoys these types of games to play the experience without wasting money on virtual currency however, so it's not necessarily a bad thing, just something that should be noted before you read the rest of this review.

The game play in jacks tribe is hard to pin a genre to. The simplest way to put it is third person resource management, although even this leave some aspects of the game ignored. You have to click on the villagers to make them do tasks (such as chop down a tree or build a hut). Performing these tasks rewards you with resources or money, and you need a certain number of these resources to progress to the next level, which is what the game revolves around.

However, it isn't as simple as a couple of clicks. Villagers need food to complete tasks, which must be harvested from trees. Running out of food will lead to many dead villagers. Likewise, you need money to pay for upgrades to buildings, which is gradually earned over time, and given to you when you build a new hut. More villagers can be created by building more huts, however these new villagers will require food, so keep your food stocks nice and high if you intend to have a large work force. The resource management mechanics are pretty simple overall, though.

The presentation of jacks tribes is good across the board. The game looks very good but it  is from a top down perspective, which means it looks good without effecting performance too much. A small disappointment is that instead of animations to show your villagers chopping down a tree or building a hut, you get a clock instead. This might not bother most people, but it definitely shows a little laziness on the behalf of the developer. Sound is overall pretty good, but is mainly just above average background music combined with very passable sound effects.

Overall, jacks tribe is a good game that ticks all the boxes, but doesn't manage to be fun in it's own right. I personally found the game to be a drag from doing one thing to doing the next required thing, with little creativity or skill required. That being said, it did keep me playing and was certainly addicting in that sense, so if that is the type of game you usually fall for, and deem it to be worth the price tag, you may want to go ahead and play this game.

3/5






Jack's Tribe Publisher's Description

Divogames, the developer of Be Rich! games, invites you to the primeval world to unveil its secrets! The story begins when Jack comes to an amusement park to ride a new attraction called Tunnel of Destiny. When he enters the tunnel in a railcar, everything goes wrong! The railcar stops in the darkness. Jack runs out of patience and begins to press all buttons and levers, trying to move it. Suddenly the railcar dashes out of the tunnel, falling down into a deep lake. Shocked, Jack sees shaggy members of a primitive tribe. It is a real time travel!

Judging by Jacks unusual looks, the tribes chief decides that the young man is the redeemer predicted by the Great Shaman. The prophecy says that the redeemer will free the tribes from the oppressive domination of the Dumbheads. Now Jack must follow the instructions given in the prophecy and find all hidden artifacts - otherwise he will never return home...

Besides the fascinating plot, Jack of all Tribes features a very original gameplay. It is strategy-based, but includes challenging Hidden Object mini-games. Jack explores the mapped territory, visiting several dwelling sites one by one and meeting a lot of various non-player characters. They give him unique tasks or useful tips, thus helping him in his mission. Tribe members fulfill Jacks orders, but they also have their own demands, which Jack should take into account, as happy people move much faster and work more efficiently. Their emotions and needs are indicated by small icons above the heads.

Sometimes Jack finds anomalies where he has to complete Hidden Object tasks, collecting scattered artifacts from the future. Some of them will prove useful - e.g. sneakers increase the workers speed by 15%.

Jack of all Tribes guarantees you hours of fun and entertainment! By the way, both children and adults will surely enjoy the colorful graphics, sweet background music and Jack's witty comments.
