Games For Boys Strategy This Is Perhaps The Most Interesting Game Genre

Probably, only with the most inexperienced person the phrase "computer game" causes associations purely with a "shooter", and with nothing more. For example, in the minds of my grandmother, the idea of all games as a "running gray man" was firmly rooted in the minds of my grandmother - too often my grandmother saw me and my father playfully playing Max Payne. Of course, in addition to the mentioned "shooters", there are many other game genres (after all, solitaire "Klondike" is also a computer game, but unfortunately there is nobody to shoot there). So, computer games are divided into many genres and the most "smart" representative of the gaming industry are, perhaps, strategies.

There is an opinion that the strategy is basically games for boys, I will tell you anything of the kind. For example, I'm not a boy at all, but rather the other way around, a girl. And the strategies are my favorite genre of games. Especially online strategy.

Strategies, like other games, require the player to achieve a certain goal, in this case, the extraction of a specified number of resources, victory in a military operation or escorting an artifact to the designated point. There are more "long-playing" missions, which, for example, need to achieve the prosperity of their empire. The strategies themselves, in turn, are also subdivided into components, and here are the main ones:

1. Real-time strategy (real-time strategy). As the name implies, time in these games flows regardless of whether you are thinking about further actions or went out to pour yourself a cup of coffee - during this time in your virtual city may break out the uprising or pirates decide to attack the allied fleet. Most often, urban planning strategies are included in this version, for example, "Anno" or "Age of Empires". Plus virtual urban planning is that while you are laboriously waiting for the arrival of peasants in your just-built settlement, while carefully building up irrigation systems and equipping computer Persians to war with computer Greeks, you will remember the historical facts forgotten after school and, perhaps, , You will be interested in some historical period. For example, I once helped a lot in the construction of cities, after a scrupulous resettlement of virtual residents around markets and mines, and after the construction of defensive towers, I knew the principles of building a medieval city.

2. Turn-based strategy. The most famous representative will probably be a titan of video games like "Heroes of Might and Magic". The peculiarity of such strategies is that players act in turn, as in table games. Thanks to this state of affairs, you can think over the moves in the most careful way, as if you are playing chess.

3. Global strategy (government simulation game).

Global strategies are games like "Civilization", here you control an entire country, capture nearby territories, develop your country from the age of the Stone Age, to a super future with space ships, etc.

4. By the fourth type of strategy, I probably will take a whole separate genre of strategic games, these are games like fortress protection. This genre, by the way, also on most sites is in the section of the game for boys, and again I do not agree with this. The girl likes the genre of protecting the fortress no less. In this genre, mostly small games predominate, of course online and flash strategies such as: Protecting the Kingdom, the Empire of Arken, etc. Well, a lot of games for mobile platforms. This is a very interesting and exciting genre of games, while not quite difficult for developers, since the action takes place within the same card, and only the map changes from level to level. Therefore, games of this genre are done very much and almost all are very successful and interesting.
