If you were a fan of the tower defense, dual-stick shooter, and action RPG hybrid — Bug Heroes — you will be in for a treat with the recent release of the game's spinoff (and follow-up). The new title has been released as a universal app and is called, Bug Heroes Quest. The art style and core gameplay mechanics appear similar to Bug Heroes, but the action follows a different formula.
Bug Heroes Quest is a story-based adventure rather than just an arcade-style action game. The game has a deep story that progresses through a campaign based on completing a variety of missions. This makes the new title more of an action RPG, rather than a tower defense game like the first entry.
Foursaken Media, on Touch Arcade, described this release as a 3D action/adventure/RPG game based in the Bug Heroes universe.
You can level up your characters, customize their skill sets, talk to NPCs and explore huge environments. Here is the complete feature list (taken from the app description):
The game is available on the App Store for only $0.99.
