Game Review: Faces

2K View2024-09-13

Arcelico has developed an action based game known as Faces which is unique mainly because of its primary gameplay which involves player versus player or PvP system. At the first sight there is a possibility to choose a character and an environment which look realistic and that is one of the major pluses of the game. It is important to note, the graphic quality is impressive and has detailed texture work along with nice environments which adds a good appeal to the game for the ones who look for realistic settings in actions games.

But it becomes monotonous at times even in the games which are actually based on the flow of the core gameplay. The premise of *Faces* revolves around a simple goal: to check your opponent right in those short but furious rounds of combat. It has a count system in where the winner of the first five rounds wins the game, this is referred to as “First to Five”. On the same note, given that the game is very basic in its design, the serious gamers may considered it to lack adequate features, modes and even customizations.

However, what is especially impressive is the fact that the game is quite repetitive in the aspect of maps and characters available. If there were less map change, most probably the players will memorize strategies and are bound to be bored with the stagnated scenes. Furthermore, as for the characters, they are designed in a nice way, but it seems that there are not enough of them and one can’t choose his avatar’s looks, which may be a disadvantage, considering that there are sequels of this game.

On the plus side there does not seem to be much in the way of huge performance hits for the game and in terms of graphic quality it looks good. We can control the gameplay and it is essential in any intense pvp combat games. Yet, new features can be added into Faces; for example, power-ups, more kinds of the game modes, or even the single-mode can be an advantage.

In conclusion, Faces is an entertaining action game that is best suited to bouts that are not overly long, and the graphics are good, but for substance and sustainability it is somewhat lacking. For fans of football who are in search of something a little more engaging they may need to turn elsewhere.
