In a press release sent to Gaming Cypher, developer MassHive Media, a small studio from Bandung, Indonesia, announced that Vimala: Defense Warlords is releasing today for iOS (already available for Android.)
Inspired by Brigandine, a classic PlayStation-era strategy game, Vimala has players recruit Heroes and other units in order to expand their kingdoms. Resource management (hiring and upgrading units) is key—while combat requires expert use of AP (action points), items (healing potions, buffs), and strategy. Weather plays a role as well: The Weather Clock lets players know if acid rain is about to hit, which means that players must prepare accordingly! Other weather events include snowstorms, volcanic rain, and even miasma.
DEVELOPER QUOTE
Anggia Lestari, founder and CEO of MassHive Media:
“Vimala is Brigandine for a new generation of gamers. Our goal was to revitalize the tower defense genre by introducing RPG-like combat, going for depth—leveling up both Heroes and units, for example—and adding some really fun 6v6 skirmish gameplay every time players need to attack or defend a fortress. Fans of strategy and tower defense games will find a lot to like in Vimala.”
KEY FEATURES
* Upgrade and defend your capital
* Build up your kingdom by capturing enemy fortresses and expanding your territory
* Create your own battle formations for each individual encounter
* Face enemies in 6v6 turn-based combat
