Multiplayer games - local network 3DS

Playing multiplayer games over local area network (LAN) is a somewhat forgotten form of multiplayer, which had its heyday in the 1990s when Internet cafes were extremely popular. In LAN, players don't need to connect via the Internet, because their computers or consoles are directly connected to each other (wirelessly or with the use of network cables). This form of multiplayer is usually chosen by people who get together in one place (called LAN parties).

Its plot is largely based on the seventh part of the galactic saga, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and tells the story of completely new characters, though some familiar and iconic faces from previous movies appear in the background.

Nonetheless, some new features have been added, like allowing a multiply uses of single brick for different purposes and eye-catching blaster duels, during which we can make use of cover.

Timespinner
Timespinner

Action canceled

A classic, two-dimensional platformer considered a representative of the metroidvania genre, developed by Lunar Ray Games that was founded by a former employee of Microsoft and Bungie Software. The story of Timespinner is set in the fantasy universe of Ernah, created by the developer in the days of his youth. During the game we play the part a young girl named Lunaris, whose village was destroyed by invaders from another planet. Heroine's mother died during the escape, and she was sucked through a broken portal and transported to another world, where in desperation she vowed revenge on the oppressors. In the course of gameplay we explore subsequent locations, solve simple puzzles and fight enemies; and as we progress, we gain new weapons and gradually improve the abilities of the protagonist. A distinctive feature of the game is the power to manipulate time, by which Lunais can move through different eras, avoid enemies and get into seemingly inaccessible places.

The game offers a single player campaign mode and a multiplayer mode (local or online) for up to six players. IronFall: Invasion features high-quality visuals that make a good use of the 3DS' power. The bottom screen of the console serves as a heart rate monitor that informs us about our soldier's condition.

3D Gunstar Heroes
3D Gunstar Heroes

Action 20 August 2015

A remake of the action platformer game Gunstar Heroes from 1993, developed by the Japanese studio M2. The player is taken to a fantasy world where the two main protagonists (Gunstar Red and Gunstar Blue) fought Golden Silver, a sinister robot. Neutralization of the antagonist was possible thanks to the heroes hiding away the four diamonds that gave him power. The peace didn’t last for long, though, as Colonel Red, who took control over the mind of the protagonists’ older brother, Green, intends to restore the evil machine. Our task is obviously to thwart the plans of the ruthless evildoer. In 3D Gunstar Heroes, the player can combine up to four weapons to create powerful combos that wreak havoc on enemy ranks. The title also introduces Mega Life Mode that doubles the base hit points, as well as the possibility of selecting the targeting mode — apart from aiming while standing still, we can also choose a control pattern that lets us aim while in motion. Beside the single player mode, the production offers a local cooperation multiplayer. The game’s graphics were significantly improved in comparison to the original, although we can still launch the production with a special emulator that imitates the gameplay on a CRT display.

Thanks to the world being made of yarn, many objects can be unraveled to unlock new paths and secrets. Yoshi’s Wooly World offers a cooperation mode for two players. Each three-dimensional location is made of virtual yarn, and every character resembles a handcrafted puppet filled with cotton.
