Random Heroes Review

Random Heroes
Publisher: Noodlecake Studios Developer: Ravenous Games / Woblyware Players: 1 Platform: Amazon Kindle Fire Genre: Action / 2D Platformer Rating: 7.8 \ 10.0: Satisfactory

Above is a scene from the first world, The City

Random Heroes is as good as it sounds-- how can you not be drawn to a game with a name like that? The story is amusing-- two "punk kids" are out doing their nightly routine of gravestone-tipping when they tip over the wrong stone, opening a portal to another dimension and starting an alien invasion. These various aliens include cyborg zombies, zombie heads that launch a volley of fireballs, and speedy anthropomorphic maggots. It's up to a bandit, a trucker, Abraham Lincoln, and other very random heroes to stop the invasion. There are a variety of weapons to purchase, ranging from real life weapons to things like the homing bazooka, the pulse rifle, and the rail gun. The game features 44 stages divided between 4 worlds. At the end of each world, you must face a boss, each more creative than the last. Also, the game sports charming retro style graphics. Despite all these positive features, the game is very difficult until you purchase a better weapon and character, and there are is also an annoying bug that causes the game to suddenly close. Even so, Random Heroes is an exceptional game, especially for being an app (that's FREE!!!), and anyone seeking a solid action-packed platforming adventure will enjoy it.
