Tynon has revealed its first race (with recruitable characters): Goblins. Trivia crack new cards 2019.
I was told that there are MMOesque mechanics in the game, and there are, but Tynon is not an MMO. Forgive me; call it my contribution to Not So Massively. Instead of debating the good and bad of. Aug 12, 2013 I take a look at the browser based game 'Tynon', and tell you if it is cool, or crap. I take a look at the browser based game 'Tynon', and tell you if it is cool, or crap.

Known from many fantasy tales, the goblins in Tynon – also referred to as “The Swarm” – are trouble-makers who possess arcane abilities. They will be the first enemies players will encounter to save the thirteen kingdoms, although players must deal with their use of sheer numbers and strong leaders to best them. The goblins will also feature the game’s first boss, Captain Wart, along with his peer Chieftain Bighand, both of whom will be recruitable.
Tynon is a new game from game studio uCool and the makers of Evony, and will be a browser-based strategy game with cooperative and PvP elements.

Race Profile: The Goblin Swarm
Recruitable Characters: Captain Wart, Chieftan Bighand
A staple in any great fantasy epic, goblins are mischievous creatures, small in size and often possess arcane talents. In Tynon, goblins, referred to as “The Swarm,” will be the first enemies players encounter on their quest to save the thirteen kingdoms from slavery and disaster under the dark wizards magic.
When in raiding parties far from the Goblins’ capital city of Greathovel, the Swarm wears armor and rags and is able to master weapons of all types. The Swarm operates best under a powerful leader, using their sheer numbers to overwhelm and defeat an enemy. However if their leader is killed in combat, the Swarm will break into a panic—chaos ensuing over the decision of who will become the next chieftain.
The first boss players will encounter in Tynon is Captain Wart, a goblin who grew up roaming the dirt paths of Greathovel. Raised in an extremely destitute family, Captain Wart quickly learned the skills necessary to survive goblin childhood, including pickpocketing, conning and scrapping. As he grew, he found himself unmatched amongst his peers in combat and consequently became a formidable master of the twin blade arts. With these skills, Captain Wart joined Chieftain Bighand, and their company became well-known and feared throughout the kingdom. Just as Captain Wart was reaching his prime, things took a turn for the worse when Chieftain Bighand encountered an emissary from the Dragon Queen…
When hardcore met social
If you think about it, most games are made with the intention to solve a problem. Whether it’s an attempt to move a genre forward or plug in some longstanding gaps, the lion’s share of developers are actively trying to – however little – shift (or sometimes completely change) the paradigm. In the case of Tynon, a browser game with hardcore hooks and a meaty story, it’s clear studio uCool set out to do both of these things.
The game begins by informing you that the king, along with others in the land, have been placed under a curse. As a knight, it’s your job to protect your village from evil, as well as remove the curse that’s afflicted your ruler. It’s a little cliche, admittedly, but it’s also woven into the gameplay in a fairly meaningful way. It isn’t just mentioned once and dropped for hours and hours at a time, but rather crops up on a fairly frequent basis.
Speaking of crops, you’ll be planting them! Matter of fact, you’ll be in charge of assembling and running an entire village. It’s not typically something you see on a knight’s resume, but it works in tandem with the game’s RPG and combat elements to ensure that you frequently have something to do.
The game takes a very “if it ain’t broke” approach when it comes to village maintenance. You’ll be purchasing buildings and waiting for them to get built, planting seeds and waiting on fruit and vegetables, and collecting rent on a fairly regular basis. It may leave the people burned out on village/farm sims with a sense of unwanted deja vu, but I didn’t necessarily mind the similarities.
“There is one unique addition, though: As you gain levels from battling with various enemies, your town hall will level up as well. And the more your town hall levels up, the more you’ll be able to develop and build your village. It struck me as an interesting way to merge the different gameplay elements in a tangible, meaningful way.
Like the sim aspects, the game’s combat portion doesn’t make much of an attempt to do anything different. Battles are turn-based, and victory is based on how specced out your characters and their weapons and equipment are. You can improve your gear by purchasing upgrades, and the game does a good job with giving you more than enough coins to do so. In fact, at no point during my time with the game did I feel compelled to open my wallet.The opportunity was there, and the benefits of doing so were obvious, but it was far from required to have fun.
Being a social game of sorts, there are also plenty of hooks and opportunities to bring your friends into the mix, be it visiting their villages or gifting them items. Much like paying money, though, it doesn’t hinder the experience if you choose not to. The single player portion of the game is perfectly fleshed out, to the point where antisocials won’t feel as though there’s something they’re missing out on.
Tynon took on a pretty tall order by attempting to bake hardcore elements into a social/casual game. But, despite a few problems, it managed to pull it off. The combat and sim portions may not breath new air into their respective genres, but there’s clearly merit to the idea of combining them. There are the requisite cooldowns of social/casual games, of course, but the game is still incredibly generous in what it offers players free of charge. It’s a model that I could see inspiring people to give the money out of goodwill, and less out of necessity.
