    Review Armagetron Advanced

    Do you know the game, Tron? Did you have fun with it? You have to know then that shortly after its success was confirmed, an improved version of it appeared in three dimensions, which was called Armagetron Advanced, and it is the one that concerns us today. For the rest, the spirit of the game has not been modified too much, but again we have to drive a motorcycle as if it had come from the future, which will not stop at any time.

    The game's attraction is that while you drive that motorcycle that goes ahead and can not brake, you will leave a kind of track or trail that other motorcycles will follow to chase you, and this is where your goal begins. Your objective is to make several moves at the last moment to make the characters chasing you crash directly into the obstacles that might be left in the way.

    Of course, you have to force the situations as much as possible, taking those moves to the limit so that when your followers notice that you have turned or modified the direction you were going, it's too late, and they end up crashing into all kinds of elements. As you can see, this is a game with some sporting features, but on the other hand, it also intends you to carry out all kinds of tactics and strategies.

    The point is that your vehicle will never stop, at least not until you finish each of the scenarios, and that means that you can't blink or pay too much attention to those chasing you, or you will end up falling out of your vehicle. Although the proposal may be a bit curious and original for those who have never been entertained in this way, we can get used to it quickly.

    Riding this kind of LightCycle, you will have to describe movements in which you can only decide whether to continue in the direction you are going or turn 90º to either side. Mind you, we recommend you to be extremely careful since, just like in the traditional game of La Viborita, you will not be able to crash your wake or that of the characters that are chasing you either, since you will also lose.

    In Armagetron, you ride a motorcycle that can only turn 90 degrees, leaves behind it a wall-like wake, and cannot be stopped. You must avoid hitting the physical walls and those created by any path, your own or the opponents', and all this while trying to trick the opponent by locking them up with your wake.

    Another interesting issue of this game is that we can challenge the system's artificial intelligence, such as facing another player on the same computer, or connected to a particular local network, even through the Internet. In any case, the objectives are always the same, although we have found it much more fun to face our friends than to dispute the challenges before the machine and the system.

    When selecting the Multiplayer Mode , you have to know that this platform will let you carry out matches of up to 18 players, as long as they stay connected to the title through an Internet connection. Meanwhile, if you want to share a computer so as not to resort to an Internet network, you'll be able to split the screen into up to 4 players simultaneously, all enjoying the fun on the same PC.

    As for the graphics of Armagetron Advanced, we can say that they are well done and immediately bring to mind those games from a couple of decades ago, with a spirit that marked a whole generation. It can't be compared with the latest titles that have appeared on the most powerful consoles on the market, but in any case, we are in the presence of an exciting proposal.

    You'll see that as you advance, the trail you leave is of one color or another, and you'll know exactly what movements your pursuers will try to follow, considering that they imitate each of your changes of direction. As the environment where the game takes place is as black as outer space, bright colors are used to trace these trails we mentioned.

    Unlike Tron, Armagetron Advanced features a three-dimensional version of the scenery, so we must work harder to avoid our accidents while moving away from enemies. Few improvements would have been as interesting in this type of arcade game as adding a third dimension to Armagetron Advanced, and that's why we appreciate it so much.

    Of course, we didn't want to finish without re-emphasizing that Armagetron Advanced is a free game since it has been made open source, which means its contents are not paid for. If you are a fan of the arcade classics that marked the decade of the 90s, you should know that this is undoubtedly one of the best alternatives you can install on your computer.
