If there are lots of enemies in the front row, go for the gun. The game’s use of enemy formations throws an interesting wrinkle into which sort of attacks are worth using – if a powerful enemy up front needs to be taken out, it’s worth going for the red swords. When characters are killed they can be revived by healing, or by making matches of their color of gem, though of course this means one fewer attack to use. There are boosts to buy and power-ups to use in-game. It’s possible to spend diamonds (the soft currency, as opposed to coins, which are the hard currency for some reason) to upgrade characters. Six different types of gems, all corresponding to different kinds of attacks. There are also healing matches that can be made to heal all the characters, diamonds for additional currency rewards, and cake, which can be used to charge up the eponymous hefty princess who too can attack enemies. The goal is to make matches to attack with different units: a warrior who hits an enemy with a sword, a gunner who hits all enemies in the front row, and a bomber who does damage to the first two rows and stuns. Sure, getting a free copy of Fat Princess is the big hook here, but what about the match-3 game itself? Fat Princess: Piece of Cake has got some cleverness to it, but if it didn’t come with a free PS3 game, I wouldn’t see much of a reason to pay attention to this when there are so many other match-3 RPGs worthy of your time ( Adventure Xpress, for example). All you have to pay for Fat Princess is your time and a Facebook login. I earned the voucher without spending a dime, so hey: free game for playing a free game! It’s the best bargain I’ve seen since getting a $20 mail-in rebate from Gamestop for buying Phantom Dust on Xbox, which itself was $20. Thankfully, the game doesn’t pull a lot of tricks, like making level 15 impossible or locking the voucher behind an impossible challenge level. As a library title whose prime selling point passed a long time ago, it’s not the greatest deal in the world – but still, this is a free-to-play game that is going to give you a $14.99 game for free, so long as you make it to level 15. Fat Princess: Piece of Cake comes with a free voucher for the PS3 version of Fat Princess, Sony’s 2009 online multiplayer game. Here’s a free-to-play game that gives back. Buy it for PS3 or especially PSP which lacks the games that PS3 does.It's a match-3 RPG, and isn't anything revolutionary in what it does. Its just a great time that lets you do what you want to. An addictive buzz of getting the princess, killing people, taking back a captive princess. A lot of this is quick fun that gives you a buzz. You can see where you’re going AND you can see the enemies chasing you. This adds to the fun when you’re running with the princess. With the almost top down perspective you can see a lot of map around you. Story mode isn’t any different than a normal match, but its just solo play with bots. Its a very nice practice worth playing again and again. For you single players out there, the game has a story mode that has you playing with bots map after map. There are extra modes for solo play, such as a survival mode called ‘glaciate’ that sends waves of enemies after you. Since this is a tower defense game, your workers can efficiently gather lumber to fortify outposts (towers) and build doors to your castle. Over time she will slim down to make her easy to carry. Why is this ‘fat princess’ you may ask? Your workers can feed the captive princess cake, so she gets fatter and becomes more of a burden to steal and carry away. Pick up stuff (like hats and princess’s) with the O button, attack with the square button, hold the attack to charge it, auto target with the L1, change weapons with the triangle, jump with the X button and its really just that simple. So if you’re an archer that keeps sniping people the bots will come back for your head. If you kill them they’ll come back and hunt you down. The bots seem pretty dumb and straight forward, but they’ll adapt. they mage? The teams are pretty big and if not populated by players, they’re populated with bots. Archers tend to take out anything living from a distance, workers can bomb buildings and fortify things, healers heal players and mages…. Warriors take out doors and kill pretty easy at close range. You start off with no class, and you can change classes to Warrior, Archer, Worker, Mage and Healer just by wearing hats. You have 6 classes (well 5 classes and 1 lack of class). The object is to keep your enemy’s princess and return your princess to your castle’s throne. Inside of your castle is your enemy’s princess and in your enemy’s castle is your princess. Its an adorable class based tower defense game? You have your castle and your enemy has theirs. This game is delightfully awesome, charming, easy to play and a joy to play.
