Freeplay Friday - Sonny

Hello and Welcome.

The rate at which flash games are developing now astounds me.  Previously flash games where relegated to puzzle games like Chuzzle, or word games like Text Twist.  But now you can play full on FPS games or RPGs, and some of them are actually good!

Which brings us to our freeplay game of the week: Sonny.


Sonny is a Tactical RPG on the Kongregate site.  Kongregate is a collection of Flash games and a place for flash game developers to, well, congregate and share there stuff.   Kongregate also offers achievements(for you achievement whores)  and a slew of other features.  Plus it is free.

Sonny is bassically a loot whore game ala Diablo, but with turnbased RPG gameplay.  Sonny wakes up on a ship after a blind man resucitates him.  What Sonny doesn't even know about himself is, he is a zombie.  Nevertheless he proceeds to irradicate zombies, and zombie hunters alike.

Utilizing skill trees and attributes very similar again to Diablo, Sonny eventually learns a vast repitoire of skills that he can use in his skill loadout.

The main (simple) reason I like Sonny, is each piece of armor/weapon you find is clearly visible on your characters.

Despite being a flash game, sunny is fairly deep and offers many hours of game play.  Can't play it for many hours?  Well, like all good RPGs sunny utilizes a save game feature.  As long as you play from the same computer that is.

Sonny, and all the games on Kongregate, are free to play.  So what are you waiting for?
