About Howl:
Over the past decade Mi’pu’mi has had the privilege of supporting global AAA productions as well as franchises from clients such as Io-Interactive, Remedy Entertainment, Ubisoft, MachineGames & Red Bull. Howl, a turn-based tactics game, is Mi’pu’mi’s latest original game. Players take control of a deaf prophetess and have to survive in a world afflicted by an acoustic plague that turns people into beasts. Every step must be well planned ahead to outmaneuver the adversaries.
Howl’s graphics are created using “Living Ink”, a fluid, dynamic watercolor art style that illustrates the story as you play. Players make their way through a dark fantasy world, fighting to rid the land of the plague and find their lost brother.
Key Features:
- 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 and there is a lot at stake.
- 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 opponent, like shadow step, exploding shot and more.
