Furious Goes Backyard Monsters



Coming from massive online RPGs and Shooters this might seem a little odd, but seeing that a part of this group started off in a very similar game called Planetarion in 2001, playing Backyard Monsters feels a bit like coming home.

The Game Mechanics are simple, with a steep learning curve and very unfriendly towards casual players and beginners. The overall look and the fact that it can be played on Facebook should not make you believe that BYM is just another Farmville.

It's purely based around PvP, massive alliance wars and diplomacy, while the actual fights are very tactical. You can get attacked while being offline and everything you have can be taken or destroyed by other players. It's challenging and satisfying at the same time, having the opportunity to completely crush other players or groups is something I've missed for a while, and it certainly adds emotion to the game.

Furious is currently holding the #1 spot on the 'Amar server and we have only recently dropped to rank #2 on all servers after battling constantly for the past few weeks. Our group is about 100 members strong are we're fighting with and against 2.300.000 active users up to date. We're seeking to regain the top position as soon as possible though...

Stay tuned for updates!

Ay, Planetarion... that's old memories. I think I still have season 6's guild member coords list printed out somewhere around here ^^
Good luck and kick some asses, for I certainly shall no more bow to that life draining sort of game.

If you've never played something like that... go ahead, jump into it and enjoy. For a time.
