Modeling Toy Soldier’s Avatar Awards
Toy Soliders is a fun game. The simple objective of defend your fort set to the cast of 1940-esque, vintage styled, tin toy soldiers is addicting and visually appealing. Even better, Toy Soldiers hands out a couple of Avatar Awards! I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again. I Read more
