Description: In 2517, the earth’s resources were exhausted, and humans actively went to other planets to find alternative energy sources. The advance expedition team finally found a rich LALU crystal deposit on the planet Marcus. When this good news was sent back to Earth, the advance team lost contact within three days of landing, leaving only the help message of the attack by the worm…
Review: Crystal War is a sci-fi themed shooter in which you stand in one position and take down waves of monsters that are running towards you (apparently they are gargantuan alien insects). While the action is quite intense the gameplay does get rather boring far too quickly. Sure, you might be able to do a score challenge with friends but even then for £7.47 you really aren’t getting a lot of bang for your buck. Crystal War isn’t a terrible game, but there is nothing new nor exciting here either.
