Brawl of Ages, the fun and free to play 1 on 1 simple RTS game has a progression revamp

Brawl of Ages [Steam], a free to play game published by S2 Games has been through a bit of an overhaul and here's what's new.

They've massively changed progression, as it was too slow and boring. Now you unlock cards with either Valor (earned by playing) or Gems (purchased with money). Due to the change, everyone has been through a "respec", essentially a reset. That might sound harsh, but it's an Early Access game so change will happen.

You now have an account level, each level you reach offers up rewards like access to new cards, but these cards still require Valor to actually unlock them.

They've also added in basic quests, to help you earn Valor. You can find the release notes here.

I'm keeping a close eye on it, as when I tried it I found it to be really damn fun. Quick battles, easy to understand and good when you're short on time. It's also free, so you lose nothing by giving it a go. I recommend checking it out to see if it's your thing, since I enjoyed it so much.

I'm a big strategy game fan so it's right up my alley, even though it doesn't have base-building, it's more about the tactical decisions you make and you need to make them quickly. Article taken from GamingOnLinux.com.
