Chaos Rings Omega Looks Like An Expensive Rehash Of A Bad Game

Oh, $12 Chaos Rings Omega (and your corresponding $15 HD version), what am I going to do with you? Because I’m certainly not going to play you.

I’ve already played through you in the form of last year’s Chaos Rings, a title I wanted terribly to like, but ended up hating. Combat was incredibly repetitive, the story elements were definitely tacked on, and you had the worst kind of depth: Fake RPG Depth, where you make it appear as though I have the choice  of using magic, items, or skills, but where I’m really just best off slamming the same attack keys every battle until kingdom come.

So even if prospective buyers were to ask me about you, Chaos Rings Omega, I’d probably end up recommending your older brother, the original Chaos Rings (currently on sale for $5). After all, he plays like you, features the same inane storyline that you do, and you both use the same gravity-defying hair gel.

    Great review Thomas. I totally support the devs but I hate when they separate the iPhone and iPad apps and charge over $10 for them especially if it’s basically the same as the previous version. Take Infinity Blade for example, I just downloaded the latest update and it makes me feel like the first time I played again. The new game modes are exciting and they made the app universal so you can pay for it once and download it on your iPad and iPhone. Chair/Epic took the best elements from an action rpg and placed them in Infinity Blade.
