So far we have had a look at a couple of 3DS games that are receiving massive hype – The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D and Starfox 3D, along with a few other 3DS games that receive their fair share of hype at launch (I wrote about the 3 must have 3DS launch games in another post).
Well today, I thought it would be nice to look at one of the games that is being passed over by many but is still a fun little game for the 3DS. I’m talking about Steel Diver.
Steel Diver is a unique submarine battle game for the 3DS.
Most of the reviews you will read for Steel Diver rate it quite low and I tend to agree with these reviews although I do feel they are a little harsh – the game is still quite fun and should keep you happily occupied while you wait for more 3DS games to be released.
Here are a few comments about Steel Diver from Reddit users when asked to suggest a good 3DS game:
Steel Diver is great if you don’t mind a really slow game. It’s not really action oriented and is really more of a simulation than anything. I’ve had a ton of fun with it and would recommend it, but I think it’s a game where you either love it or hate it. – Bossman1086
Definitely Steel Diver. I’m having a blast with it. – Mojo_Nixon
Too Long; Didn’t Read version: If you have played through all of the popular 3DS games that were available at launch and are waiting for more to be released, Steel Diver could be a fun little game to pass the time – albeit a little frustrating.
