I'm one of the developers at Faro Entertainment. I'm really excited to say that we are in the final testing stages of our first casual game for the iPhone and iPod Touch. It is Word Warrior, a role playing word game where ‘The Unlikely Hero’ fights various enemies by forming words.
Each round has a set of foes you must conquer to move on to the next, and each enemy has their own set of hit points. During game play there is a timer in the center of the screen. When the timer is finished counting down the enemy will attack dealing damage to the player. The player must deplete the enemies hit points before the enemy depletes the players.
Larger words do more damage, but you can only use each word once per round. Because of this, there's a significant amount of strategy in the words you play in each fight. Special letter tiles, Fire, Ice, Lightning and Poison, can also be used to do additional damage or slow an enemy down. Each round may have a special set of rules, like only spelling 3 letter words, which keeps you interested and excited to see what might be coming up in future battles.
As players proceed through the game they will receive pieces of armor or weapons which they can place on their character to customize the look creating thousands of combinations. The armor helps protect the player during battle and the weapons help to destroy enemies faster. Achieving better armor at higher levels will help the player in the harder levels.
We made a trailer to capture some game play and show you what is coming. our goal is to get Word Warrior out soon, right around Halloween!
You can check out the trailer at our website or on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FwigbdedXr0
