Upon entering the game, the player is informed of a calamity occurring in the wizarding world. Important artifacts, creatures, and even wizards are going missing. As well as, reappearing in the non-magic world, threatening to reveal the existence of magic to the muggles. It is the player’s job to save the lost items (known as Foundables) and maintain the secret of magic. Adding a story to Wizards Unite not only made it more interesting but also created a reason for people to play the g

With numerous companies and indie game developers churning out horror titles every year there are now a lot of creepy titles for gamers to dive into. No matter what type of player you are there is almost guaranteed to be a horror Adventure game strategy out there that can scratch whatever itch you h

Harry Potter: Wizards Unite was announced a few months ago, and even with little to go on, many fans suspected that it would be a similar experience to Pokémon GO . Those suspicions were only given more fuel when the development team outlined the game’s features earlier this week. Not only is the basic premise the same, but there are also some mechanics that seem directly pulled from Pokémon GO, particularly gyms and PokéSt

Of course, Niantic is a lot bigger now. It should have the means to make Wizards Unite more varied and deep than Pokémon GO — but will it? After all, why spend development time changing the systems of a game that made billions of dollars? The smart move, at least from a business standpoint, is for Niantic to make Wizards Unite a Pokémon GO clone with enough references to keep Harry Potter fans placated. If the information revealed about the game so far is any indication, that’s exactly what it

When it comes to the killers specifically, it has to be a tie. Sure, Daylight has more variable options, but Friday has to be given a nod for the sheer fact that it’s given each version of Jason something original, with different strengths and weaknesses. The fact the killers vary in both games means that you can switch around and they’re both endlessly

Some quick ways of earning a few Bloodpoints are to break the pallets that have been thrown down and damage generators in the process of being fixed. As the killer, if someone throws a pallet down, you can pause to kick it and break it. You can also pause by generators that are not completely fixed and damage them, making it take a little longer to repair them. In the grand scheme of things, it’s unlikely either of these will win you the game, but every little bit helps when it comes to filling out those Bloodwebs, ri

You level up by collecting Bloodpoints (which essentially work as the games XP system). You can then fill out a Bloodweb with them and once you’ve filled out the whole web, it changes to a new one and your character levels

In some of the maps, you might come across totems. They can only be used by certain killers, so it may seem utterly useless, but if you have the time and the killer isn’t close, cleansing them is a good way to boost your Bloodpoints. And if you’re stuck in a map with a killer who can utilize the totems, even bet

Niantic chose another popular world to bring to life in its next game, basing it off the Harry Potter universe. With such a history of success and popularity, Wizards Unite was an excellent choice. Wizards Unite was largely based off Pokémon Go , however, there are a few significant differences. Did Wizards Unite succeed in overcoming its predecessor, or does Pokémon Go show that changing things up isn’t always better? Continue reading to discover 5 Things Wizards Unite Does Better Than Pokémon Go (& 5 It Does Wor

There are certainly times where Pokémon Go might feel a little too simplistic, but at least it’s easy to understand. That’s part of its charm: The ability to pick up the game and jump right in, fully understanding how to play and what to do. This is not the case with Wizards Unite . Upon entering the game for the first time, the player is barraged with instructions, lore, and story. Half the words they use don’t make any sense, and it gets a bit complicated a few levels into the game **** when even more rules and features are added. Sometimes a little simplicity is a good th

There are even three teams. This seems particularly odd since the Harry Potter franchise has four perfect teams built into its story with the Hogwarts houses. Instead, it seems we’re getting Valor, Instinct, and Mystic repeated in the form of three Professions. Wizards Unite players can choose to be Aurors, Magizoologists, or Professors, which totally fit the theme of the aggressive one, the offbeat one, and the smart one. One nice difference is that the three Professions are encouraged to work together, unlike how Pokémon GO emphasizes competition between the te

The graphics in Friday the 13th are pretty outdated — let’s be honest. For such a recent game, not a whole lot of effort went into them and they’re also glitchy as hell. You can be driving the car, get out, and stuck floating around in a sitting position with your hands on a nonexistant steering w
