Best Fiends vs Peaky Blinders: Mastermind
Best Fiends
Best Fiends is an incredibly addictive match-3 puzzle game that has taken the world by surprise. Despite having a theme focusing on the creepy crawlies, the game managed to appeal to millions of players worldwide with its adorable bug characters, the slimy slug enemies, and the charming yet bug-dominated world of Minutia. The gameplay in Best Fiends is quite unique as well since it features what is now known as a combat match-3 mechanism. Basically though, this means you'll match 3 or more colored items to allow the bug of the corresponding color in your team to attack the enemy. You can even upgrade your bug army using meteormites you've collected.Sounds like a whole lot of fun? Well, considering its popularity, many players would probably agree with you. So, if you haven't experienced this breakout casual game yet, you definitely should. We can't recommend this game enough!
Peaky Blinders: Mastermind
Peaky Blinders: Mastermind is a game that puts you into the shoes of the Shelby crime family as they try to exert their influence and strengthen their grip on their turf. The game is split into several story-driven “missions” featuring time manipulation elements where the goal is to sync up the actions of every member in the group to accomplish the mission objectives. These missions will also allow you to play several members of the Shelby family from Tommy himself to the youngest, Finn.The gameplay here lets you play around with time, making sure that you sync up the actions and movement of the characters you control in each mission just so they could complete the mission as flawlessly and within the shortest time possible. Basically, instead of Tommy, YOU will be acting as the mastermind for the Shelbys in this game!
To make this possible, the game has a timeline bar at the bottom of the game where you control whether time moves forwards or back, much like the forward and rewind button on a tape recorder. While time is moving forward, you can get your characters to do a variety of actions, depending on their specialty. For instance, Tommy has the power of persuasion, allowing you to take temporary control of a persuaded NPC to open doors, pick up certain items, or pull otherwise inaccessible levers for the Shelbys.
Each mission comes with its own episodic mini-stories that you can enjoy. These stories aren’t linked to the TV series, naturally, since the series is already in its 5th season, and this game is set in its first.
In a nutshell, Peaky Blinders: Mastermind is a fan-service game that really made its mark. The gameplay is incredibly fun and strategic, and for those perfectionists, a challenging game to get a perfect run on. Plus, as fans of the TV series, it’s a real treat to be able to enjoy some new storylines, albeit short and being set in the first season of the show, that you have some measure of control over… you know, due to being the mastermind and all.
