Week 5 - Critique 3

Zelda: A Link to the Past is well balanced. As you go through the game it gets hard, but at the same time the player becomes better at controlling the character and also gets better items. The game comes with a bunch of side quests that allow the player to become even better. There are different styles that you can play and use different weapons. There are expert players that don't get all the life that is optional, which makes the game harder.




Starcraft is a well balanced game. Some items are readily available for all players to use, and others can only be held by the player who gets it first. In multiplayer, you are pitted against players of all levels of skills. But you can set the skill of the computers you are against, which people are in which teams and these allows the player to customize the difficulty of the multiplayer game. The game is easy to learn but there are a lot of different stragies that a person could use. Since there are different types of gameplay, both single player and multiplayer, a player can choose to train himself online with a more experienced group. This allows a player to start off with the basics and ramp up the difficulty as he gets better.
