Droid Trivia Switch NSP Free Download Romslab I’m typically quite a fan of trivia based games, I’ve played quite a few over the years and while not everyone enjoys them I mostly do. This one is however most certainly a stick out just in terms of the disappointment I have towards it. This is a very slow, drawn out trivia game that features a number of bugs and issues. It’s very straight forward being something designed for up to four local players. You can enjoy matches against the AI as well if you choose to go solo. You can play four or eight round matches or alternatively just do singular rounds of each type. It’s noted to have over eight hundred questions that are spread out over fifteen categories.

A decent amount perhaps, yet at the same time I came across many similar questions or the same ones after only a couple matches. On top of that, I had some questions that were blank with “template question” and “answer 1,2,3,4”. That was odd. The four round types you can do include true or false, multiple choice, memory and picture based. Let’s pick an eight round game. The camera swoops into a generic industrial background, and the round’s game type is announced. There are four in Droid Trivia, but they’re so similar that you could argue that there are only two.

Players are presented with a question and several possible answers.

There’s True or False?, which we won’t patronise you by explaining. There’s Multiple Choice, which, again, is a bit Ronseal: you have four options to choose from, each mapped to A, B, X or Y. Picture Multiple Choice is the same, but with a picture to jazz up proceedings, and there’s Memory Game, which is a multiple choice but the answers are removed before the question appears, so you have to remember where the right answer was located. So, three multiple choice rounds, and one True or False. Inventive. They are simple and timeless enough to work well. Astria Ascending Switch NSP

The only caveat is Memory Game, which always puffed a little groan out of us when it came up. Sitting there, repeating phrases like “Elephant, Monkey, Ostrich, Rhino’, over and over, as we waited for the answers to disappear and the question to finally appear, wasn’t our brand of fun. Memorising phone numbers has never been fun, so a mode dedicated to something like it missed the mark. Players get to vote on their choice of category for the round. These are sensible stuff like Music, Natural World, Food and Drink and others.

Players can choose between different difficulty levels, such as easy, medium, and hard.

But Droid Trivia is clearly an American game, as American Geography and American History pop up frequently. Curiously, the other categories and their questions don’t feel overly biased to the US of A – they are well edited and feel country-agnostic – but the fact that these two take up valuable category slots might limit you (unless you’re American, or fancy a pop at some of their questions). The questions themselves are pretty good, if a shade boring. We never questioned the veracity of the answers; we even learned a few things. They’re pitched well for reasonably well educated adults to have a good time (we got roughly three-quarters right each round, which is a completely unhelpful metric).

They’re just a little unimaginative, lacking in wit or intrigue, opting for general knowledge in the given subject, rather than anything creative like anagrams, riddles or the like. Which might be your cup of tea: just don’t expect to be surprised by anything here.The audio choices were nice, and I don’t mind the vibe considering it’s more of an indie effort. But alas, those issues just make it almost too rough. I also hated the questions where you couldn’t see answers after a few seconds as they felt just weird. Astro Bears Party Switch NSP

Questions can be organized into different categories, such as “Star Wars droids,” “fictional droids,” or “real-life robots.”

This one is agonizingly painful to sit through. I know trivia games are typically slower to play, but wow this one is quite something else. The pacing is just the worst and it feels as though matches take forever. I thought it might be a cute, fun little trivia thing with robots but after just a couple rounds it was dragging. It got worse as I pushed towards some of the Xbox Achievements for playing so many matches. I also had some problems where a match would just end while I was playing it, that was strange. It’s just a bad combo of slow pacing and some bugs that make what could be a charming little time into something rough to sit through.

If Droid Trivia has a fault, it’s the speed of proceedings. For each round, you start with a standings screen, then the camera swoops into a bland environment, then the round is announced – voiced, so you have to wait for the gent to finish – before the categories are picked. Then each question is voiced too, with a chunky gap between it being read and the answers becoming available. Now, multiply this for four questions in a round, and up to eight rounds, and you have a plod. The lack of speed gets to you eventually. You know what each round entails, so you don’t need it introduced. But there’s no option to remove this spiel. And the three-second wait for the answers to become active is grating.
