The Game Bakers has announced the release of SQUIDS for the iPhone/iPod Touch. A black ooze is threatening the beautiful home of the Squid. The ooze is turning crustaceans into monsters that are threatening the area. Out of the monsters rises a rag tag band of Squid heroes. The heroes have to protect their home from the onslaught of monsters.
Players can choose their party of four. There are four different classes to choose from all with varying abilities. Once the perfect team has been assembled, players set off to rid their beautiful homeland of the monsters. The battles are turn based and use the abilities of the party members. The controls are all touch based.
“After years of working on best-selling console games, we formed our own studio so we could bring our expertise of AAA games development to iPhone gaming and make the best of the two worlds meet,” says Emeric Thoa, The Game Bakers’ CCO and co-founder. “SQUIDS has the depth hardcore gamers are looking for, along with the accessibility casual gamers expect on the iPhone or iPod touch. From the funny characters to the adventurous story to all of the tactical possibilities, SQUIDS offers something for all types of players.”
If you like adventure games, head over to the Apple App Store and get yourself a copy of SQUIDS. The game costs 99 cents.
