The world of retro RPGs has been dominated by the JRPG genre lately, thanks in large part to Kemco's steady stream of new releases. However, fans yearning for the classic feel of SNES-era adventures, particularly those reminiscent of the iconic Zelda franchise, will soon have their wishes granted. Enter Airoheart, a charming retro action RPG set to launch on iOS and Android on November 29th.
Airoheart proudly showcases its Zelda-inspired roots, and that's something to celebrate. With its beautifully crafted pixel art, fast-paced action, and familiar top-down exploration, this game is poised to satisfy those longing for a nostalgic return to old-school adventures. In Airoheart, you step into the shoes of the titular hero on a mission to thwart his brother's sinister plans. Your journey will take you through the enchanting world of Engard, where you'll harness the power of the Draiodh stones to prevent an ancient evil from awakening and casting the world into darkness.
On-the-go action - There's a timeless allure to the simplicity found in classic adventurers like The Legend of Zelda. Even though these games predate many of us, their top-down perspective, vibrant pixel graphics, and straightforward combat retain a unique charm. Often, modern throwbacks to this genre introduce new twists that, while enjoyable, can detract from the core enjoyment of a classic adventure.
