Overview
As an introduction, I wanna say that I love games.
Whatever the genre, like Action, RPG, FPS, Adventure, Strategy, etc. I love them all. I feel competitive when playing these games.
At the same time, as an engineer, I need to explore and learn about the technologies.
Gaming Session!!!
Recently, I found interesting thing from skillbuilder platform.
I see the tagline that this game is “an architecting game” of AWS.
By this tagline, I know that promising a challenge for players to pass all the stages.
After that, I clicked it and was redirected to the game’s website.
We can click “PLAY” to start the game and will get a tutorial first about the game.
About the stages, there are some paths but we must start from the beginning, like the difficulties in the real certifications, from Cloud Practitioner.
In every path, it has stages that are required to pass.
By this image, we can see that i’m now playing on 14th stage. Even not all the stage result is perfect. But, let’s go back to 1st stage again (to make it perfect)
OK, the 1st stage is about the Auto Scaling Group.
You may learn from the tutorial, but let me describe short information about this game.
I set the mark with red color, and label to share about the information.
(A) Our cards, It’s used to get additional energy on B (if we has +2 like AWS CLI or other, we can drag the card to B side), and to put on board H to get points.
(B) Our energy, if we have no energy left, we can’t put it on board H.
(C) It’s button to end our turn.
(D) The score of the battle versus the enemy.
(E) The enemy’s card.
(F) The enemy’s energy.
(G) The gorilla (i think), it will attack our card on board if it’s not protected (we may need card like IAM, Security Group, etc).
(H) Our board, we need to put the card and fill all the field until it full. And don’t forget to get focus on score too. We may overwrite our enemy’s card to get score and the enemy will lost the score. To prevent lost score, we may need to give additional protection on our card (like label G)
(I) It’s used to discard useless card, to exchange with random card (hope that the new card(s) better)
(…) Additionally, in bottom left corner, It’s the number of remaining cards that we can exchange with.
And at the end of the game, we finally filled the majority field. Now let’s End the turn and finish this stage!
Next, we will see the Summary of this stage.
We get perfect result on it with spending 03:47 and get score 11 vs 03 from the enemy. The key of this game is about stealing 04 cards of enemy and enemy can’t steal our card.
Thanks to the team, who build this game. It’s constructive!
