I thought there wouldn’t be news today seeing that Korea and China are both having holidays, but a Taiwanese gaming site reported on this game, hence you are reading it now! This is Brick Force, the maiden title of Korean developer EXE Games. It first debuted in the media back in April, but I have no idea how I missed it. Back to topic, why reference this game to Minecraft since it is an online FPS? Well, make a guess…
Foreign media is calling it as such since players are able to create their very own maps, just like in Minecraft. Using blocks of texture, players can lay down these bricks and make unique terrains, buildings out of the given space. In a more professional term, this is also known as User Created Content (UCC).
EXE Games started out with just 7 staff back in the days and Brick Force was indeed developed based on inspirations from Minecraft, allowing players freedom to participate in making the game. Closed Beta begins from 7th October in a few days’ time, with 14 maps, 4 characters and the map making function available.
