Get ready to embark on an epic battle between fire and ice
NEW YORK and LONDON, Aug. 16, 2018 — King, a leading interactive entertainment company for the mobile world today announces the launch of Legend of Solgard, expanding its portfolio of games into the popular RPG genre. Developed by Snowprint Studios, this epic, new fantasy adventure sends players to the world of Solgard, where they must find a way to save the world from the icy doom of Ragnarok.
Available to download for free from the Apple App Store and Google Play, players will travel through nine fantastical worlds, where they will need to combat enemies and bosses with the creatures they collect. Inspired by Nordic Folklore, Legend of Solgard is an RPG adventure that follows Embla, the games’ protagonist, in her epic fight to stop the end of all worlds and establish her as one of Solgard’smost powerful heroes.
Legend of Solgard features a variety of challenges and game modes in which players must rely on different tactics and strategies as they discover an army of colourful creatures, including:
- Campaign: Players must fight most of their battles against the frost minions. There’s a long and winding road from each world’s first battle to its final boss, but with every frost minion you crush and ice portal you shatter, the more creatures you will collect
- Treasure Caves: Players must harvest as many Sun Gems as they can from the caves
- Bounties: Players must claim bounties on villains in the world of Solgard, a great way to earn Gold!
- The Dungeons: Alongside their guild, players must venture deep into the dungeons to slay bosses that await them
- Hero Arena: Players must fight other heroes for fame, glory and diamonds!
- Boss Arena: Players will take on world bosses once more in new and exciting challenges
