When we first got our current Xbox 360, I was browsing through the XBL Marketplace and decided to look through the avatar games, where I found A Kingdom for Keflings. I showed my wife, we took a risk and bought some points, and had a blast. When we first heard that a sequel was being developed in A World of Keflings, our excitement was palpable, and we experienced a game improved in every way. When we saw Akimi Village at E3, my wife almost skipped other appointments to continue sitting there playing, and when we got our hands on it to review, we found that it had some really innovative advancements over the Keflings series (that hopefully will make their way into a third Keflings game one day). Now, I get to return to my World of Keflings with the newly released It Came From Outer Space DLC, and I couldn't be happier. Well, I could be a little happier, but we'll talk about that in a few paragraphs."
The team that brought you games like A World of Keflings and more are back with a new game. It's A Handful of Keflings! Are you excited to play?
From the review: "A World of Keflings takes the charming niche strategy series and ports it to Wii U, with a host of improvements. This is the same whimsical civilization-builder you remember, but with a streamlined GamePad interface and Mii integration. If you've never experienced the Kefling world, Wii U is the best place to do it."
GA:
"'ve played A World of Keflings for a not-insubstantial amount of time. I've helped the little Keflings build their factories and town halls and homes. I've assigned them their tasks. I've interacted with them. I've helped them shoo away dragons. And after all that, all I have to say is: I'm bored.
I really don't know what else there is to say about such an insubstantial game. What I described above is pretty much the whole thing in a nutshell. You help the little Keflings build up their cities, and…that's it. There's not really any conflict to handle, which in turn means there's not a whole heck of a lot of plot to get through. It's a Real-Time Strategy game where calling it "strategy" is putting it nicely, a Sim City where there's essentially zero risk. You just build, and delegate, and then build some more."
