The Offline type called “Mess About” is simply the main game pitting you against 23 other computer AI bots. It’s basically an extended tutorial and has no replay value but is still enjoyable the first time around. Story is called ‘Legend of the Fat Princess’ and consists of 15 chapters (missions). There are 3 main types of single player gaming.
#FAT PRINCESS PS3 REVIEW PSP#
But I have my PS3 at home… So, let’s talk about single player side of things as this is where most of my time was spent with the PSP version of Fat Princess. (in Australia at least) So online play is only possible while I’m at home. It’s not inordinately difficult, but it is a fairly lengthy level, and a powerup or two will come in handy if you’re trying to beat it.I don’t know about most of you reading this, but I typically play my PSP while I’m on a train / bus to work.
#FAT PRINCESS PS3 REVIEW FOR FREE#
You will get some of the powerups for free as you play, but ideally, if you’re working for that free copy of Fat Princess for PS3, save them all for this level. The warrior is really a limited-use case, or only if the match makes sense to help make matches in future turns, so don’t focus so much on keeping them upgraded, it might not be worth your hard-earned gems. The gunner does a nice balance of damage and attacking multiple characters, so they’re worth keeping upgraded as well. The bomber is more useful when he’s doing more damage, so level him up.

You’ll need to keep your characters alive, so keeping the priest upgraded is important. In general, you don’t want anyone to die because they limit your attack options. Try to focus on this, because you not only get the benefit of reviving a character, but can also heal other people in the party. Healing gems will refill the respawn counter for a character as well, though. When a character dies, the problem that you can run into is that you can try to revive them by matching that character’s blank gems, but you won’t be doing any damage, naturally. I don’t think it’s worth saving her up unless you know there’s a challenging boss at the end where you could use her enhanced effects. Use her when there’s large formations, as she can attack the entire formation at once, including the back row (which no one on the squad can attack), so you want the maximum effect from her. Unless you’re in a level with a challenging boss at the end, I recommend using the princess as soon as it’s smart. Swords can be useful, just only in the right situations. But if you get a single enemy in front, you’re going to want to eliminate them so that you can bring other enemies up to the front, so you can take them out with bombs and gunners. Attacking only one enemy can be a waste of time – doing damage to lots of enemies at once is likely a better use of your turns. When you have groups of enemies, it’s best to use the group-clearing attacks. Only go for swords when you have a single enemy in the front row This benefit is worth as much as whatever damage you do, as you can use this as a way to stock up on diamonds or cake for a free turn, to charge up cake, or to just make other free matches. The bombs don’t necessarily do a lot of damage, but the benefit they have is to stun enemies, which will prevent their turn counter from decreasing for one round. You can’t attack back row enemies, so getting rid of that front row is very important so that you can at least force back row enemies to the middle row so you can start whittling them down. Remember that two of your three attacks do group damage: the gunner attacks the front row, the bombs attack the front two rows.
