RPG Dice: Heroes of Whitestone is coming to Google Play and the App Store this January 18. This tabletop-inspired character battler RPG is developed by WIMO Games.
The game focuses on the village of Whitestone that's currently under siege by the Twilight Empire. This evil organization has in its ranks filled with the likes of nefarious goblins, savage orcs, and cunning elves. The only thing that stands in the way of this Empire are the wizards, warriors, and rogues that are drawn to the city in hopes of earning honor, glory, and of course, loot.
The game has players form a group from a roster of at least 60 heroes. Players can move forward in each adventure through a tabletop-game-like arena. They roll dice to move across the board and trigger various scenarios like getting to turn-based combat. The key is to have a balanced party by equipping each character with unique dice. The dice, skills, and items can then be upgraded to have a strong team.
Moving the board though isn't just about combat. Players can also encounter tiles where they get to talk with NPCs to advance the story. Some tiles can also help complete quests or even get new ones. Chest tiles meanwhile offer players epic loot along with equippable gear.
Those looking for a challenge can choose PvP battles where the rewards are greater. There's also a ranked progression system with online leaderboards. Players can also band together and form a guild to defeat the Swine Chief. Once strong enough, guild members can decide to raid the Ziggurat, which is the endgame dungeon that has the deadliest enemies and the most epic loot.
In a statement, WIMO Games CEO Dave Rosen shared that they grew up loving the worlds offered through tabletop RPGs. He added that this game is their love letter to those games and is excited for everyone to have that same experience through Android and iOS.
It’s still quite a while before the game is officially released. So, there’s still time to pre-register for the game. Those who do can unlock various valuable rewards, including the Uncommon Rank 2 Combat Die, Rare Rank 3 Rogue Gloves, Rare Rank 3 Warrior Weapon Nightsteel Mace, and the Verdant Doublet, an Epic Rank 4 Caster Chest Armor. If there are enough pre-registrations before the launch, everyone can earn the Orc Warrior Hero Thokrug.
