Best Fiends Forever Review

Best Fiends Forever is an intense action based game for both iOS and Android devices. It comes from the developer Seriously Digital Entertainment who developed the popular puzzle app Best Fiends. The game itself is a clicker that has level progression throughout it and it's simple and uncomplex nature will instantly nab you and make you fall in love with it.

The basic concept of the game is that you are trying to save bugs from the evil slugs that have taken them captive. To do this you must progress through several levels located on different islands and terrains. At the end of each level you will fight a boss slug to try and win back one of your bug fiends. The cute art style and levels are very appeasing to look at and will please the eyes of most players.

The controls for the game are rather simple, as you just poke the screen to attack the enemies. As you progress you will get more fiends that can fight with you. Each of these fiends can be equipped with an ability that will charge itself up like auto-slap which quickly takes over the tapping motion for you. Other spells can increase your money gain or rain fireballs down upon your enemies for massive amounts of damage. You can also level up your fiends using in game currency you get from just playing the game.

The actual game itself moves at an incredibly fast pace. The amount of money you earn will increase throughout each level to meet the rising demand of leveling your fiends. The game is pretty laid back until the boss battles where a time limit will appear in which you have to get the boss's health depleted in. There are also secret paths you can enter by cutting grass along the background of the game as well as chests you can tap for money bonuses. Speaking of bonuses, when you reach certain goals you will be able to pick from a few onscreen cards usually to either double your damage or give you a coin bonus. The game will also naturally generate coins when you are gone, thanks to the fact that your fiends are eternally fighting slugs.

Overall, the game is fun and looks great. The characters are drawn well and on my iPhone 5 the game runs perfectly smooth with no major hiccups. The gameplay is simple enough to include anyone, but is fast paced enough to keep them on their toes. The story may not be the greatest tale ever told, but it is cute and perfect for an iOS game about saving bugs and squishing slugs. I would say this game is a recommended play for anyone who enjoys mobile games. It is free to download and includes in game purchases that are used to help you level quickly, but they’re not required.
