DC fans may have already lost hope of having a good Superman game at the level of renowned works like Batman Arkham and, if that is precisely what you are looking for, maybe DC Justice League: Cosmic Chaos not what you expect.
However, there is another sector of players just as needy as you, that of children who, after a golden age in which we grew up with superhero platforms and Disney characters, now live relegated to Nintendo games and creations that are closer to of marketing scoops out of a game with a face and eyes. To some extent, DC Justice League: Cosmic Chaos It’s good news for both of you.
Finally a game where it’s fun to be Superman
In the form of an action RPG with an isometric view a la Diablo but with a visual style and depth adapted to its target audience, DC Justice League: Cosmic Chaos It has turned out to be a very pleasant surprise. One that clings to that of not asking for pears from the elm, beware, but a tree with much sweeter and tastier fruit than we are used to tasting.
From experience I can tell you that the quality of the children’s games that currently reach the market leaves a lot to be desired and, although the depth of DC Justice League: Cosmic Chaos It goes as far as it goes, because of abusing certain enemies too much and wanting to stretch the gum excessively, in reality we are facing a hilarious superheroic tollina game.
hand in hand Batman, Wonder Woman and Supermaneach with their own style of attacks, special powers, abilities and progress tree, we will travel through a small open world but full of details and challenges, in which to complete missions and dungeons.
Minimap, strong attack, weak attack and powers like freeze, throw batarangs or grab with the lasso of truth. It’s easy to get an idea of how it’s going to go just by looking at a screenshot of the game. The good news is that everything good that you can imagine when seeing that same image is undeniably there.
A good balance between fun and accessibility
It’s not easy to come up with a game that I can enjoy with my kids and that is both accessible to them and entertaining for me, so DC Justice League: Cosmic Chaos it is certainly one of those rarities where we can go hand in hand without too much trouble.
The combat is simple and the strategies are reduced to dodging from time to time and hitting buttons to attack, always with the possibility of switching between one character and another at the click of a button to take advantage of their specials when they are already loaded, but it is enough entertaining enough for that not to be a problem.
A bit along the same lines is the idea of moving around the world, with a Superman with the ability to fly that always ends up being more useful and entertaining than the rest of the trio, but with the possibility of getting vehicles and fast travel that make it easier to go from here to there following the main story.
Those of you who are going to play with children will appreciate that the second character always teleports to our position when he leaves the screen, so you will not have to deal too much with the “come, what is here” which can often end up choking.
VidaExtra’s opinion
Simple but successful is the typical phrase that can be attributed to almost every aspect of the game, from the graphics to its gameplay, but in the form of skill trees with juicy surprises and collectibles such as comics that will open the doors to new skins, DC Justice League: Cosmic Chaos It proves to offer more than we might expect.
As an adventure with which to spend a couple of afternoons, it may be hard for you, do not forget the audience to which it is directed, but if you have children at home and you are crazy to stop doing the same races in the Patrol game Canine, be careful because it can be your salvation. Also, that it is completely translated and dubbed is a joy.
