Two important releases for Hive gaming happened yesterday.
MoonKart
In this case, it's one stage of the release, pack opening. The game was already playable with a default kart and driver and no additional add-ons. Now, with card opening, one could use their own cards.
I only opened 1 pack so far and I think I got lucky (although I'm not sure, I wouldn't say by the stats). But I pulled a Legendary driver and that is encouraging.
I played a few laps with the default driver (Aero) and one lap with the legendary driver (Hammer), and despite being slower than Aero (+2 to Speed instead of +3), its better handling (+3 instead of +2) made me a couple of seconds faster per lap.
I like racers, and I expect to play it occasionally, even for fun and little rewards.
I wanted to try multiplayer too, but seemed like I was the only one wanting to play... Either that or multiplayer doesn't work yet.
SoulKeep
SoulKeep was also launched yesterday. I was waiting for this game and so far I tried the single-player maps. There are 5 standard ones, and then others follow, maybe randomized? I haven't played any of the maps after the 5 standard ones.
The last map gave me some trouble and it took me a while to complete it after I started using the traps more efficiently.
This is a screenshot from the last wave of the last map. I lost this one, but I figured out what I did wrong and finished the map at the next attempt.
This one is a rabbit hole for me, lol. I could probably waste hours playing this one (and I did).
I haven't played tournaments yet... Maybe tomorrow I'll give them a try.
Looks like we'll have some fun games to play on Hive of different types we haven't had before, and closer to what you'd find in Web 2, so maybe easier to bring over some fresh blood.
