Cho'Gath eats the World
Prologue
Farm, Kill, Fight(with your teammates), Flam, Lose, Report! What game is it? It's Riot Games's League of Legends. And yes I already did a review of it. Today League of Legends is on its 9th season, with a lot of updates and changes and events over the years. But back in 2013 They did something special: they made a mini game called "Cho'Gath eats the World". A 2D flash game style with just one simple task: DESTROY EVERYTHING ON SIGHT!!! It was an April Fools event(they do this every year) and faded away pretty quick, but for a guy who likes classic retro games this was a memorable event they ever did.
Design
Like I already said, it's a retro game style. 16 Bit graphics/sound if I'm correct. So it gives nostalgia to people who grew up with Super Mario World or Sonic 2. But what they didn't know was that most people who played League of Legends were teens and this was back in 2013. These teens grew up with fucking Gamecube(like me). So nobody really cared and it faded away. But I sure enjoyed the graphical designs and music.
Gameplay
It's an arcade style. Destroy every building and advance to the next level. The story is that Cho'Gath, a monster who eats everything is requested to eat everyone in every city around the world by Gentlemen Cho'Gath. And when he finishes, he'll give him a present. You start with USA and go all the way to Australia. And when you do manage to beat the game, He'll give you a mini Earth... which Gentlemen Cho'Gath eats right away. So you're going around knocking down buildings and eating civilians for health. Occasionally other League of Legends characters will show up and you can devour them for a permanent health increase. The down side is that you're such a huge target, and soilders, Garens, and even Teemos will shoot you, throw grenades, and do all kinds of damage that you won't be able to dodge. So you gotta break and eat continually to keep yourself alive. For a character that's virtually impossible to stop, I think that's a fair disadvantage. Also, you can unlock another mini game called "Astro Teemo" but that's a whole other story. And other than knocking down buildings, Battlecast Prime Cho'Gath will appear in Japan(obviously a reference to Godzilla and Mecha Godzilla) and Zac, a slime monster will appear in Australia. A pretty short game, but at least I enjoyed it. And those of you who play League of Legends and like retro games then this is something you'd wanna try. It has some kick ass music too and that alone is worth listening. Well you all might be wondering why I reviewed a short flash game that nobody cares. I just wanted to share something I played back in 2013. And something that was so nostalgic that even to this day I still play it for fun.
Next review will be Super Mario Maker 2! Oh yes, I bought it! And Buster Bros after.
