Retro role-playing game for Android
MMORPG games full of legendary heroes, epic stories, and dungeons guarded by underworld creatures have always been in fashion, not only now. So, for all those users that miss that 80s' and get all nostalgic about pixels, and that are also fans of role-playing games, here comes Bit Heroes.
It's an 8-bit adaptation that tries to gather all the essence of the games of back then, recreating their graphical aspect and the basic movements of the characters... and it does so very well.
A classic RPG for Android devices
That's exactly what you'll have once you download this APK to your smartphone or tablet: an adventure in which your mission is all about building a team that will fight by your side, having to collect money to help you recruit new heroes. Loads of missions and weekly events are waiting for you in an adventure that will take you back to the times of your Amstrad, Spectrum or NES to continue exploring dungeons.
Here, everything will make you feel very young... or very old.
Resorting to the past and nostalgia is all OK, but what's the point of not making the most of the modern technology to increase our amusement? That's probably what it developers must have thought and that's why they've included online multiplayer functions that would have been a revolution if they existed 25 or 30 years ago.
