Exploring Games: Sandbox (Server 1) & Sandbox (Server 2)

Yes, it's time for yet another casual building game to review! This one just had to be reviewed, not only do I consider it a 2011 classic, but this place holds many memories for me, personally. That's right, this is REDALERT2(WeAreInsanity)'s Sandbox game!

In this game, you spawn in (or on top of) this miniature sand tower. You walk out, and you need to use the shovel tool to choose a base. The size of your base is determined if you have any kind of VIP or not. Regular VIP, Super VIP, and Mega VIP allow you to build on a larger base. They also allow you to use the expand tool, which makes building a lot more efficient! This game also has it's own unique VIP system. It

Wow, look at that awesome house! Grats to whoever made that!

has 3 t-shirts, all of which don't apply to a specific type of VIP. You get one, and it counts as regular, whether it's #1, #2, or #3. If you got #1 and then got #3 (or #2), you'd have super. That's basically how it works.

This game has a LARGE variety of blocks to build with, such as spikes, regular blocks, ice blocks (that react like ice!), NPCs, and even more! You certainly aren't limited a lot building-wise! And oh, you don't need to build alone, no. You can also grant permission to specific users to allow them to build WITH you! (Great touch, in my personal opinion.)

Now that we've got the main concept of the game covered, now it's time for a rating.

Pros:

- You can save your bases.

- Lots of blocks to build with.

- You allow friends to build with you

- Almost Unlimited building (Good because you can build bigger and better things!)

Cons:

- It's easy to lag out the server.

- Building is pretty boring without VIP (in my personal opinion)

- Almost Unlimited building (Bad because certain sizes can lag some users out.)

Concept: 4/10 (been done enough times, even during it's time.)

Building: N/A (since it's a building game.)

Scripting: 8/10 (scripts are basically flawless.)

Final Rating: 4/10 (the concept brings it down)

Even with the small rating, the game still is a 2011 classic, and deserves a try at least!

* Note: This game has multiple servers, both are separate games. This applies to both, though I believe Server 1 is usually always up-to-date.
