Howl is a turn-based tactical folktale set in medieval times. A sinister “howling plague” has ravaged the land, turning those who hear it into feral beasts. Thankfully, our heroine has special powers against it: she is deaf. And now it is up to her to plunge into danger to in search of a cure.
Plan up to six steps in advance to outmaneuver your opponents: wolfish creatures filled with hunger and rage. Various types of fiends are lurking in the shadows, each of them possessing different abilities and their own levels of vitality.
Howl – Key Features Include:
- Tactics: Players must always stay one step ahead of the enemy’s actions in order to succeed in the turn-based puzzles. Players need to arrange their moves up to 6 turns in advance and watch their plan play out. One wrong decision can put the heroine in dangerous situations.
- Unique visual style: Through “living ink” the beautiful fairy tale world becomes alive as you play.
- Unlockable skills: New skills can be unlocked and improved to stay on par with the opponents, like Shadow Step, Exploding Shot and more.
- Challenging: 60 levels in four chapters are waiting to be freed from evil, save villagers from the claws – or howl – of the wolves
