CorruptionWare is about a troll with a club beating up peasants. You move from hill to hill and try to beat up as much peasants as you can. At each hilltop there is a flag where you stop, and you have to play a minigame. The minigames are quite fun to play, so you should definitively check this game out.

Kaitlyn obviously knows how to combine various game elements to make a game enjoyeable. The background music is fun, it doesn\'t get boring as you play for some time. Game speed is perfect too, cause something is happening all the time, and in the short pauses you can\'t wait to see what\'ll happen next. The graphics is nicely done, a few effects here and there add nice flavor. The terrain represents the hillside, you are a troll, and there are unlockable items plus minigames. This is definitively one of the top five games of this competition.

With CorruptionWare, Kaitlyn proves that girls also have their place in the game industry - and, damn, she deserves quite a good place for this. CorruptionWare is my second favorite entry for TINS\'05, second only to Troll Hunter. The game\'s premise is that you play as a troll slaughtering peasants.

The gameplay is straightforward. Your troll is always moving forward, following a sinewave terrain. Helpless peasants come moving towards you. Your objective is to just kill them by hitting them. Whenever you miss or let one escape, you lose some of the \'accuracy bar\'. When that bar is zero, you lose. Also, when you keep hitting peasants in a row without missing or letting any escape, you\'ll achieve a combo, which are worth more points.

Sometimes you\'ll enter a minigame, which don\'t really have anything to do with the actual game. One of them shows a spinning wheel with some anime-ish character drawn in it, and a certain sector of it painted blue. All you have to do is stop the wheel when the arrow is pointing at the blue sector. The other minigame has Mario moving up and down in a platform, and you need to shoot him with Bowser.

If your score goes high enough, you\'ll unlock an option to play the minigames on title screen.

Very nice polish, good graphics and audio and nice gameplay. Good implementation of technichal rules, but I\'m not sure what it\'s a parody of. Troll is obviously there, too.

My only problem with this game is that it gets hard too quickly (when you start moving way too fast), and, once it does, there\'s nothing you can do about it.

A solid entry. Recommended.
