Badge Mania

I am a member on the site Kongregate, which is a site for hosting flash games. On this site, you have a "level" and in order to increase your level, you have to earn badges.

I am currently level 75 with 7880 points. It's taken mea long time to get this far, but I still have a long way to go. That's what this "quest" is. There are a LOT of badges on Kongregate, on a LOT of different games. And it's hard to get them all. My goal, as always, is to earn as many badges as possible!


LET'S BEGIN.

Badge of the Day: Spore Shopping Badge (Mushroom Madness 2)
          The badge of the day gives you bonus points. So, while I already earned the badge, I got 5 bonus points for playing the game again.

MUSHROOM MADNESS 2

          This game has 4 badges, for a total of 65 points.
  • Spore Shopping Badge (easy) -- earned
  • Spiritual Adventure Badge (medium)
  • Inevitable Shroom Doom Badge (medium)
  • Seein' Psilocybin Stars Badge (hard)
 The game is simple in theory. Bash the animals before they can get to your mushrooms. (Yay for violence!) For each level - each increasingly difficult - you can get 3 stars, which open up other modes of gameplay. There are 16 levels in Adventure, and 8 in each of: Animal Rush, Vault Defense, Safe Breaker, and Survival.

Of course, it's easier in theory than in reality.Playing through these levels allows you to buy upgrades which in turn makes the other game modes, and earning stars, easier.

I am not a fan of this type of game, but Mushroom Madness 2 is well done. It has nice graphics, good scaling, and seemingly balanced mechanics.

So because of personal bias, I give it...
