Skyborne Games’ LightSlinger Heroes, a mind-blowing RPG/bubble shooter combo, is launching today on iOS and Android
In LightSlinger Heroes, legendary creatures run rampant – destroying everything in their path. You’re tasked with choosing a faction – and then taking on difficult quests in order to kill each beast. The gameplay may seem simple on the surface, but actual strategy is required in order to beat the toughest enemies.
With imaginative visuals, satisfying sound design, and polished “can’t-put-it-down” gameplay, LightSlinger Heroes is sure to leave a lasting impression on gamers looking for brief, intense magic battles across a fully-realized fantasy world.
Ready, Aim, FIRE!
Created by Riot Games veterans, LightSlinger Heroes is a twist on Match-3 gameplay – incorporating strategy, puzzles, and RPG elements. Shoot and match three or more bubbles to attack massive beasts as you sling your way to the top – and join the quest to become the legendary LightSlinger!
Tips:
Carefully plan your moves to create ultimate combos – and summon heroes to unleash deadly attacks.
Assemble a powerful team of heroes as you complete quests; each hero will grant you new combos and spells to use in battle.
Form a guild by inviting your closest clanmates to embark on real-time raids or join the PvP Arena where you will go head to head with other teams.
At a cursory glance, the marriage of bubble shooter and RPG might seem like a match made in heaven – but in reality, it requires a bit of “marriage counseling” to work. In order to ensure strategic depth on every board, Skyborne added mechanics like “Wild Bubbles” – allowing players to shoot three bubbles for a turn – and “Combo Effects” such as Heal/Attack All when you match five of a color.
Si Yang Ng (CEO, Skyborne Games):
“We’re hardcore gamers, and we’re always looking for deeper, more layered gameplay. Sure, embarking on a quest that lasts several hours is not feasible on mobile, but it doesn’t mean that any and all complexity should be abolished. LightSlinger Heroes goes for that ‘sweet spot’ between the two extremes – offering grand battles fought against screen-filling monsters, pinpoint bubble shooter action, RPG-lite mechanics, and the same attention to detail you expect from an AAA game.”
