Watch Dogs was really worth the wait. So hop in an awesome review by Sourav Dey. So finally the long awaited Friv game Watch Dogs has been released. Lots of expectaions and hope among the friv gamers about watch dogs at website friv games. But has it able to satisfy the gamers? Does it meet our expectations and high hopes?

Introduction of the friv game

Well if you are among those who have waited a long time for watch dogs, I would say it won’t disappoint you. Ubisoft has let the gamers jump into the huge and impressively well designed and detailed map of Chicago city. With just a help of a button you can control the city such as, you can know the details of everyone, trigger environmental traps all around Chicago, empty someone’s bank account, controlling traffic signals and cameras and much more.

This concept has made Watch Dogs a unique Friv game in the world of Third Person action games which immerse players in some awesome hacking stuffs. The protagonist of Watch Dogs Aiden Pearce is a guy of its kind with his own suppressed personality though it appears weak. Character animations of Watch Dogs are well developed. It has a huge open world map which make the Friv game more enjoyable.

The beautiful Chicago city

The Map of Chicago is vast, diverse and amazingly detailed. The rural as well as the urban areas are equally balanced and the city looks beautiful during sunset or rain. Everything runs fine except a few technical problems like some frame drops in certain areas, though it doesn’t hamper the experience but still its definitely noticeable.

Sometimes during loading of objectives these issues might be annoying for some. The fictional techno-thriller Watch Dogs is about the power of the super connected city. The Profiler of Aiden Pearce allows players to have information about any citizens about their hobbies or lifestyle, plus their age, occupation, and income. Though simple but still interesting.

This Friv game isn’t about some violent rampage or creating chaos. Not because of the reputation but for the cops. Escaping cops sometimes become difficult and countering with them like some other open world games is quite difficult in Watch Dogs.

Plot and gameplay

After a few hours of play the random, straightforward revenge story becomes complicated but suddenly takes a huge turn when all are revealed. This is to note that in a world which deals with so much impressive technically advanced stuffs like surveillance and manipulation stuffs, the antagonist’s plans aren’t that advanced.

It falls to some random simple category. Besides the main story, you can spend a lot of time in the side quests scattered all around Chicago. The gang-hideout missions are really interesting and stealthy. You have to take down well guarded targets resulting to test your stealth skills.

“Watch Dogs’ AI isn’t as good as it should have been or it could have been.”
Other site activities like the pre-crime interventions which are all same foot chase, criminal convoy ambush, chess and poker and much more. Though they are kinda repetitive.

The delightful spider tank mission should not be missed. Besides all these buying weapons, upgrading skills and other free roaming stuffs will allow to spend hours and hours on watch dogs. Above all, Ubisoft’s hacking Friv game Watch Dogs has made a success in its hacking puzzles. It’s clever and frequent use is not annoying. There’s also the ability to take over any surveillance camera you can see and you can leap from camera to camera to find some data source or to some terminals which players want to hack.

Missions and Combat

The missions of Watch Dogs are more stealth focussed which make it unique than other open world Friv games of it’s kind. A smooth cover system and the time-slowing power make silenced head-shots easy to execute or you can use the powerful blackout tool to play the role of a stealth maniac instead which I think is a smarter idea than fighting through though it doesn’t have any consequences on the mission.

What makes the combat system interesting and funny is by cover and flanking techniques, fooling enemies by this method is fun. The car driving mechanic is pretty lame. All kind of crashes and other stuffs are not well developed. You can’t shoot from the window while driving a car.

“Car chases won’t let you shoot someone from the window and that is the place where Watch Dogs failed in impressing us.”
So in car chases, all you have to do is hacking i.e. triggering the environmental hacks to cut the chase. These car chases are the areas where Watch Dogs doesn’t stand to be unique.

An awesome multiplayer experience

Now comes the best part. You can pirate Watch Dogs but there is no chance of pirating the multi-player experience. As I always say, multi-player is often the motivation behind buying a video Friv game. Watch Dogs has many online modes for enjoying the Friv game with your friend.

The real deal is multiplayer

You can play the PvP mode where you group with your friends and this mode is a bit like Capture the flag. The real fun comes with the 1v1 mode where Aiden has to protect his data and kill the villain. You can be the villain by entering someone’s game too. Once you enter someone’s game, a tense countdown will start and will notify the game’s main player (you are the hacker so from main player we mean the one getting hacked). So the one getting hacked must find the hacker and kill him but you don’t need to find another Aiden Pearce other than you. You will need to use the profiler because the hacker won’t look like you.

There is so much fun in Watch Dogs’ multi-player which makes it a must buy.

Final Verdict

Overall the simple hacking abilities will let players to complete the story in a smarter way. Various side missions and the long story will drop you in adventure in the busy world of Chicago.

You can put hours and hours if you wish to explore no matter by driving cars, riding trains or roaming on the waters by boats. It’s depend on you how you want to play. Except for car chases, Watch Dogs, no doubt is a great third person Friv game of this year. A must play!
