Glu Mobile
Gives Gamers A Second Chance To Defeat The Chaos Engine
Glu brings the classic 90s adventure game from
The Bitmap Brothers to mobile phones
Glu Mobile, a leading creator and global
publisher of mobile entertainment, today announced the release of The Chaos
Engine, the classic Bitmap Brothers’ title from 1993. For those who dedicated
hours upon hours trying to defeat The Chaos Engine on the Amiga or MegaDrive
over 10 years ago, there is a second chance to conquer this machine of mass
destruction with the game’s launch on mobile.
Players take charge of a group of highly armed,
elite mercenaries for hire. Their job: to destroy The Chaos Engine – a vicious
machine that is transforming the very fabric of space and time.
The mobile version of this Bitmap Brothers’
masterpiece lets gamers choose two mighty mercenaries to blast their way through
the chaos of levels loaded with warped monsters, fiendish traps and secret
passages. To reach the lethal machine, players will need to works as a team,
with the computer controlled player covering their back throughout this perilous
mission. Gamers will need skill to survive horrific monsters, cunning to avoid
the terrifying traps, and brains to discover the secret passages.
UK mobile magazine What Mobile has given The
Chaos Engine its highest score of 5 out of 5, saying “If HG Wells were to make a
mobile game, The Chaos Engine would be it.”
Features include:
- Choose from up to six characters, each with
their own weapons, strengths and weaknesses - Up to 12 levels of gameplay set over three
environments, loaded with secrets and horrific enemies - Players can upgrade their mercenary and
weapons as they progress through the different missions
Glu has also launched the other Bitmap Brothers
classic, Speedball 2: Brutal Deluxe, a futuristic sports game which puts players
in control of Brutal Deluxe, the newest team on the block. The game’s objective
is to defeat all the other teams and claim the Speedball championship, but nine
opponents with the same aim in mind stand in the way. Speedball 2 is a game
where kicking and punching your way to victory is not only allowed, it’s
rewarded.
