GoBattle.io is a beautiful combination of modernity and the
past. The gameplay and graphics may be incredibly old school however everything
has a modern twist. The rendering of the artwork is done incredibly well,
character models are unique and move in an incredibly fluid manner.
The game has thee playable modes, the main game mode is the
King mode. The King mode pits you against other players from around the world.
The premise of the entire game is you’re a knight fighting other knights. So
many people will look towards playing the game just to be a knight and go
against the other enemies.
As you fight the other enemies and eliminate them, they drop
coins. It is incredibly important to pick up the coins as these are the score.
If you don’t pick up the coins you won’t get any score so be sure to pick up
after your kills. The main weapon in the game is a throwing knife, don’t worry
there are other weapons in the game. You can find the weapons spread out
throughout the map, each weapon has its own perks.
An effective strategy would be to try as many weapons as
possible. Another key feature of the game is the ability to shield yourself.
Pressing the S button allows you to crouch and shield against the damage. The
shield is incredibly effective, and helps you survive through many situations.
The shield is a knight’s trusty companion the same applies to this game. Even
through the shield you’ll receive a little bit of damage to your health.
There’s no passive healing in the game so you have to be
careful about how much damage you take. All across the map there are a lot of
bubbles that let you heal up your hp. Furthermore there are bottles containing
health as well, you can find these bottles hidden throughout the map. Another
tip you can use to help you win is stealing other people’s kills.
To steal someone’s kill you can just pick up the coin they
drop off once they die. Picking up other players kills is a risky strategy but
is definitely achievable under the right circumstances. It may not be the most
knightly thing to do but everything goes in all-out war.
The other two game modes are more novelty than competitive
but you’re free to try them as much as you want.
