AdVenture Communist

Clickers are a rather new type of video games, especially since gamers from a decade ago would most likely laugh at them and point. However, there are just too many options to choose from nowadays, not to mention the fact that some of these are actually very easy to make with the right tools. Hence, everyone affords to spend a few minutes every day clicking on meaningless buttons.

AdVenture Communist is the sequel to AdVenture Capitalist, and it’s more or less the same thing, except with new names for everything and a new ideology to follow. Hence, instead of buying businesses and making money, you have to produce potatoes and train farmers to work the land. It’s a pretty simple formula, but then again it can also be very addictive.

To begin with, you have to start producing potatoes by clicking on a button and watching the numbers grow. It doesn’t get easier or more exciting than this, on the other hand, which might prove to be a bit of a bummer. Hence, most of your time is spent clicking, because the automatic gatherers are a tad too slow to really make a difference in the long run.

After a while you start to avoid a variety of other technological advancements, which provide you with better tools to produce potatoes. In order to research new equipment and technology you have to acquire research points, which can be pretty tough to come by. On the other hand, they can be obtained as random rewards from the capsules you sometimes find while you are digging out in the sun.

There’s nothing exciting to see while you play AdVenture Communist, but the overall user interface and graphics are pretty nice, at least when it comes to the color scheme and the tiny bits of artwork. The music can be pretty fun as well, at least until it gets repetitive and you are forced to turn it off and replace it with something else.

All things considered, AdVenture Communist is neither a revolution nor a surprise, because it doesn’t try to innovate anything, nor change its target audience. Thus, it’s more of the same, so the fans of AdVenture Capitalist should find everything they want in this one as well.
