I’m not sure if I’ve
found a new addiction, or just another reason to drain my phone’s battery in
next to nothing. This little gem is called Brave Frontier, a pretty simple RPG
that’s available both on the Apple’s App Store and on Google’s Play Store.
The game’s story
revolves around groups of summoners gathering power to defeat an evil and more
powerful one! That sounds so original,
right? But don’t worry too much about that. The story isn’t what gets you
hooked, it’s the combat and the way the game works that keeps you coming back
for more.
You get a team of five
heroes, which can be unlocked by using Honor, which are friend points gained by
using other players on your team, or by Gems, which are purchased to unlock
strong and rare units. Before fighting, you’re presented with the option of
selecting either a friend or a random summoner to help you out in battle.
The most addicting aspect
about the game is the battle system. You tap on a hero’s portrait to attack,
and each hero varies how quickly they strike. The point of the game is to
quickly eliminate the opposition. If you manage to synch all your attacks at
the same time, you create Spark, which is a super strong critical attack that can
defeat many bosses with ease. But actually getting Spark is not as simple as it
sounds! You either have to practice attacking in synch, or just keep tapping each
hero at different rhythms, figuring out how to do the most damage to be the
most powerful summoner in the land.
The game is free and
offers a lot of tutorials to help you level up, as well as getting your heroes
stronger by making them fuse with weaker units. It also has daily dungeons that
help you out in the long run. Overall, the game is just really fun to play,
even though there’s no actual player versus player mode.
I definitely recommend
the game. Just don’t blame me if your phone’s battery runs out constantly because you start playing too much. I just can’t get enough!
