There is no reason that good game must be big in mean of graphic assets, music and other stuff. I love German style board games (like Power Grid) and these board games could show game developers how to make games: there is simple in mean of rules and assets, butgame play is usually well balanced and this is what I like most on the games.

Proximity is, in fact, board transferred to computer. You have one simply hexagonal grid, two armies (red and blue) and simple rule in turn based system: when you place your army, all neighbour armies that have a less “power” than your army will be yours. That’s all.

You can play the Quick game or play with game settings little bit. The quick game means you play at default settings (Player vs. Computer on beginner level and full land). After you tried several rounds I recommend to play with the settings a bit. I like playing on smaller lands, it is quite difficult to play good on smaller landmasses.Unfortunately the AI is not perfect, but provide you good competitor.

You can play with other player on same computer (or watch two computer enemies), but I do not tested it, yet. I really miss lack of Internet multi player.

Conclusion
I can’t say anything bad to this game. Well, AI might be better, but it is ok. Just possibility to turn off sounds will be nice.

If you like to think, try this game here.
