Dominations Game Full Review !

When Supercell released Clash of Clans for the first time on iOS at 2012, mobile gaming is slowly to attract attention. Three years have passed, the game based on defense strategy was still in demand by mobile gamers.

To follow the success story of Clash of Clans, other developers competing to create the same game. Castle Clash, Jungle Heat, Battle Glory, and others appears on Google Play Store. Not satisfied with the release of Clash of Clans, Supercell even spawned a similar game with the title Boom Beach.

Even so, none of the games that are ‘exploded’ and able to shift the position of Clash of Clans. Until the end, Big Huge Games has recently released Dominations. At first, it was thought that the Dominations not much different from the Clash of Clans ‘wanna be’.

But after tested in a few weeks, it turns out this game is fun to play!. At least, able to shift the position of Clash of Clans. For your information, although Dominations is the first mobile game created by Big Huge Games. Big Huge Games is not a new player in the gaming industry.

This game developer founded by renowned game designer, Bryan Reynolds. He had given birth several times exciting game titles, such as Civilization and Rise of the Nation. Big Huge Games vacuum for several year, until finally got up and release “Dominations”. In the making, Big Huge Games in collaboration with the Asian giant game company, Nexon.

Build a Village, Hunting and Rob

Judging from the amount of the size of the file, Dominations game has a larger size than the Clash of Clans, about 75 MB. If you do not want to spend data packets, it is advisable to use a WiFi connection when downloading.

Dominations game initial loading is slightly longer than the Clash of Clans. This is because you will be presented by two different logos game developer, Big Huge Games and Nexon. After loading you will be faced the course with a tutorial. Like the Clash of Clans in the beginning of the game.

In Dominations you need to build a village. The resources in this game supported by two elements, namely gold and food. Food is in the Clash of Clans called “Elixir”. Besides functioning to create and upgrade troops, food also can be used to upgrade some buildings, such as the Blacksmith and Market.

Then how to get gold and food? Well, here is one of the interesting about Dominations. Besides resulting from Gold Mine, a gold in the Dominations can be obtained in several ways, by hunting animals and robbed. Besides obtained by picking on Fruit Tree, gamers can also grow crops on Farm and hunting animals.

This feature is fairly attractive and becomes a differentiation. Instead of waiting for the results of the Gold Mine, gamers can collect them by hunting. It is more interactive in my opinion, to see how the behavior of the population in hunting animals. Not quite up there, gold can be obtained and produced by Caravan and roads built. Something that does not exist in the Clash of Clans.

At first I thought the street is like a decoration. However, it has an important role in generating resources, especially gold. More and more buildings are connected by road, the greater amount of gold will produce. Something like that.

At the beginning of the game, you are only equipped with 3 houses with a population of 6. This population has duties is to establish and collect resources. To add house or amount of labor, gamers can buy using gold and a crown (a kind like “gem” in Clash of Clans).

House in Dominations are arranged by era (age). So, even if you are not interested to add house using in-app purchase, you will still get the extra house when switching age. Switching “age” can be done when you upgrade the Town Center.

This means that you will see a wide variety of changing times, ranging from building and troops model. From ancient weapon, then your troops will be transformed into a modern army.

Each time you move the days, then you will get some advantages, such as the addition of buildings, including the defender. The difference in the Dominations defender with other games is the presence of Garrison, a building which contains troops guard.

Similar to the Clan Castle in Clash of Clans. These troops will be out when it detects an attack. Garrison troops inside will come out every few seconds, depending on the level. The higher level, the greater hitpoint.

7 Nation, 7 Characters

As its title suggests, DomiNatons, you must choose one of the seven states provided. China, Japan, Britain, France, Germany, Greece, and Rome.

Each of the nations has unique advantages. For example Japan, we will get an extra defender from Town Center.

Each nation also has a distinctive force (unique units) with different abilities. Japan has unique units called “bushi”. Bushi like Barbarian in Clash of Clans.

He will turn into a Samurai when we upgraded in the Blacksmith. Troops in dominations quite diverse and this is likely continue to grow, considering there are many empty forces slots.

The most interesting thing that I can say is the return of the troops after a war. Yes, troops in Dominations not like in Clash of Clans. Although all the troops you drop into battle, but they will come back to headquarters. You have to win the battle and troops must be in life.

At the end of the battle will be calculated how many successfully robbed and how many troops are dead. It is obviously very beneficial, where you do not have to waste resources to make more troops.

In addition to training troops, you also can recruit mercenary force (Mercenary). Mercenary can be recruited with a trade item or through negotiations when these forces are found in the forest. So, when you cut down forests to expand, eventually you’ll find a few things, gold, food, animals, statues, or Mercenary.

Dominations has a clan system and the league. Clan system called the Alliance. To join or create Alliance, first you must first fix the Gate Alliance.

For its own league system starts by collecting medals as much as 400. Following the league will benefit more gold, food, and trade items to be sent every day through the ship.

Conclusion

Dominations deserves to be called Clash of Clans Killer. Variety of unique features and similar style to Rise of Nations that is capable of making Dominations as heavy competitor for Clash of Clans.

Selection of the nation and changing era or time line it is interesting to observe. With the advantages and disadvantages of each era, makes you think carefully before finally deciding to choose the nation. You will also be served by a variety of world history, for example the Pyramids and the world famous figures, such as Cleopatra, Napoleon Bonaparte, etc.

For visual display, Dominations has more alive than Clash of Clans. The environment also great. For me, the character is a weak point. The character not as good as the Clash of Clans. Not only that, this game still has many bugs.

Clash of Clans should be recognized quite successful in building the character image. Barbarian, Archer, Goblin, Giant, names that easy to remember. In DomiNations, the characters have multiple names so it is quite difficult to remember.
