ComPet: Behind The Game #1 Overview What Kind of Game is Compet? ComPet is a turn-based battle game where you collect and train a vast array of pets to compete head-to-head with opponents worldwide. Outwit your foes with strategic combinations of abilities that carry you to victory! Play for fun or as a ‘cash-gamer’ as you hoard wealth and grow your estate. The Village The village is the ‘command centre’ that gives you complete control over your pets. Here you can research new combat skills, train them, assign guard duty, send them on quests or use them to battle against the AI or other players. Each building in the village has a specific function: for instance, the Gold Mine allows you to mine gold and the Vault allows you to store it. Buildings can be upgraded to allow players bonuses and further possibilities for progression. Pets The stars of the game are your pets. They are your gladiators, your defenders and your pride and joy! There are 4 different classes of pets: Aggressive, Defensive, Attuned and Balanced. Each class has a different combination of statistics that influences their combat style. The more you battle with your pets and put them on quests, the more they can ‘level up’ and progress in skill. Battles Battling is comprised of a turn-based combat system. Players must select a set of abilities (attacks) for their pets to use in battle. Battling involves the interplay of four key elements: mojo, health, endurance and ferocity. As your pet ‘levels up’ you gain points which can then be distributed amongst these four elements. Quests A single-player mode where you spend gold to send your pet on a quest, thereby gaining rewards and experience. Beasts This is a single-player 'campaign' mode where you battle against the AI. Real Cash You can choose to use real cash in the game, although this is not mandatory. Using real cash can speed up certain processes meaning you progress faster. It also gives you the option to battle other players for real money. Stay tuned for the next installment of ‘Compet: Behind The Game’! Continue reading...
