Heh, as you can see I'm trying to add as much content as possible. Hopefully, this well attract more users. Well, lets begin on the next review. Four Second Frenzy. This genre of games are very popular. Another game like this, a lot worse tho is called Grid 16. I recommend you try and play both these games as they both have badges and such. The game is another wario ware clone. It indulges itself in countless mini-games and then leads to a final goal. Defeating the boss. The basic concept of the game is to complete each micro game within 4 seconds or less. Exceeding this time limit results in a loss of a life.

Well, excuse the quality of this review as I'm playing facebook poker simultaneously. Anyways, that pretty much sum things up. I loved the game, it's highly addicting. After a couple runs you should have the basic feel for the game and should be able to beat it every time.

Frantic Frenzy Badge (hard - 30 points)

Complete Endurance Mode in Four Second Frenzy.

This badge should probably be medium. Most of the mini games are very easy. I'm not gonna go out of my way to provide a walkthrough for each mini game I encounter so just play the game a couple times. Should be pretty easy after that. Using cheat engine you can have unlimited lives. Freeze the lives and you'll win for sure. Here's a video demonstration.


Overall, the game is very simple to learn and master. The simplicity of the games make the game very entertaining, while making the game a bit too easy. Don't bother playing the disappointing sequel. Four Second Firestorm or something, not worth linking.

"The game delivers countless games all packaged in one. While it is entertaining for a while, after mastering the game it becomes too easy. The badge should have been medium range of difficulty," -KongreGuide, 3/5

 
Thing-Thing 4 04/04/2008
 

 A lot of love and hate for this game. Well, I did play this game all the way through got all the badges without cheating and here's my review. I has mix feelings towards this game. All I can say is that nothing new was brought to this sequel. Visually the game was brilliant. The particles effects would've been great and all but I just can't afford a computer with an amazing graphics card. There should be a setting that lets you lower particles effects. Even on low quality, I experience extensive amounts of lag. There's a variety of enemies and weapons so it's decent on that part. The worst negative about this game is how simple the gameplay is. Kill certain number of enemies is equal to when you can move onto the next area. I finished the game with a little over 700 kills. That's an insane amount of kills in my opinion. The game just lasted way too long and the repetitiveness kill it. You may feel different, but the health concept is what many people on the Kongregate forums are buzzing about. A lot of people are talking about how there should be a  health bar versus its original design. Health bar is so outdated. I mean come on... instead of having the "classic" health power-up, Weasel implemented a brilliant method for healing and viewing your health. Only problem I had with this concept, is how the screen got too "crowded" and it became a little bit distracting.

The game also got this week's challenge which shouldn't be too difficult if you followed my guide. You can follow my walkthrough here but its more in-depth in the forums. Since I did beat the game without badges, I will be posting whatever little bits I found. But, it wasn't my major concern to find them.

As mentioned before, I did not really look into the matter of hacking and changing variables in the game. But, from looking at the game the most effective thing to do would be freezing ammo for the most efficient weapon you find using Cheat Engine. As ammo is really scarce. If your having some troubles with the game and just want to finish the badge since the game sucks ball, then don't hesitate to post your problems in the forums.

Taste of Blood Badge (easy - 5 points)

Kill 50 enemies, then complete your current level in Thing-Thing 4.

Shouldn't be too difficult at all. If your having troubles with this... then your definitely should resort to cheating. The whole point of this game is to kill, so you should just camp a spawn and use your lead pipe so you don't waste any ammo. This also helps you later on for the next badge.

Kill Drill Badge (medium - 15 points)
This is not really a drill. Score 88 melee kills, then complete your current level in Thing-Thing 4.

As mentioned before, you can either camp a spawn early on in the game or you can just continue playing the game and use the jump and hit strategy. The lead pipe is obviously the only melee weapon you can use. So thats all you need to achieve this badge.

Live and Let Die Badge (hard - 30 points)

Fulfill your quest for revenge, completing all 28 levels in Thing-Thing 4.

I find the name of this badge to absolutely make no sense, anyways to beat the game follow the walkthrough here. If your having any other problems either comment this blog post or post on the forums. Remember your most important tool, the lead pipe. Should finish the game after around 700 kills depending on which route you take.

My final thoughts for this game? It's time to end the series, unless Weasel can come up with anything new and innovative, I believe the time has come. If you've played the previous Thing-Thing's you'll find it's all the game. Great concept and all, but the game is just too damn repetitive.

"Visually the game is great, actually so good that it lags horrendously on my computer. The concept is very simple and the gameplay is boring. Overuse of blood and mindless violence makes this sequel a flop. I hope the author discontinues the series and uses his talents to make better games." -KongreGuide, 3/5

"I feel that the Thing-Thing series has gone as far as it can as far as game play goes, it is fun and a great way to waste time but it lacks creativity," -unforgiven91, 4/5
