Torkven:

In Brief:
Torkven was created using the Unity engine and is a action platformer. Following the devastation after a nuclear strike that changed the face of the planet and caused many things to turn evil.

The aim of the game is to help Torkven who is loaded into a globe like rocket ship save the planet by killing all the enemies such as the carnivorous plants, hazardous mechanical devices, mutated frogs and traitors and collecting anything that is collectible before reaching the end of each level.

On starting the game you are presented with a help screen that lists both pictorially and text based each of the bonus's that can be collected, for example a bonus for recharge power and recharge points as well as destructive power ups that enable Torkven to destroy specific objects such as the mechanical devices (spikes and saw blades) or mutated enemies. There's also an invulnerability bonus that gives Torkven an invulnerability shield and a collectible in the form of a page.

From the main menu page you'll see a button in the bottom right of the screen called Collection, this shows six spaces for collectible pages, which would indicate that there are six levels to complete before finishing this game.

There are two buttons to the top left of the in-game screen the first turns the world perspective three ways (denoted by arrows and called Torsional mode of the head) the second is the difficulty setting (Easy, Medium and Brain f*** - I'm sure you can guess what f*** means).

Collect the stars i.e. bonus points that fill up the points score located in the top centre of the screen and recharge power bonuses to see the power rating in the top left of the screen fill up. Each level has one collection page to find as well.

Use the WASD keys to move Torkven., watch out for spikes and other (hazardous mechanical devices) as well as various enemies mentioned above.

Once you've completed a level your progress is saved, and you can restart the game from the beginning of whatever level you left the game at. If you press New Game any progress that was saved will be wiped. You can choose the play the game in English or Russian. The initial storyboards are in both English and Russian.

You can see a video of game play HERE. Apparently, there's also a follow up called Torkven 2.

Conclusion:
Torkven is a very colourful well-constructed platformer with some interesting level designs and challenging levels. The introductory story board has some grammatical errors, but most of the text based stroy is understandable and takes little from the game The actual storyboard imagery is excellent.

This is an excellent coffee break game that should keep you entertained for a few sessions. I do think six levels is quite short and maybe the developer should consider combining the second game with the first. I believe there are two more versions of the game one being an android game but couldn't find much evidence of either in the short time I searched this morning.

I enjoyed the limited time I've had to explore this game and would recommend it to any platform aficionados. If, like me you aren't very adept with platformers, I'd play the game on easy on your first play through. I found the hardest difficulty setting a little mind numbing with the constant movement of the level but does make the game a lot more challenging than the easy setting.

I'd score this a 7.5 out of 10. I'd score it higher if there were more levels included.
