Dunali Games has initiated a soft release for their intriguing strategy-based puzzle game titled “Rookie Tales“. This captivating title can now be downloaded on Android devices within India. The game was nurtured under the guidance of the KRAFTON India Gaming Incubator, and it has already garnered attention at prominent developer events in the USA, Europe, and India.
Tackle real-time challenges using strategic power-ups and outsmart your enemies
As a passionate gamer, I’d say that “Rookie Tales” is an exhilarating adventure game, richly influenced by chess, where it masterfully combines the essence of traditional board game strategies with the pulse-pounding thrill of real-time action. In this captivating journey, you assume the role of Rook, a courageous but green hero, traversing grid-like terrains, crafting decks, and engaging in epic battles against formidable bosses to resurrect the dignity of the besieged Kingdom on the brink of Peril.

In my opinion, what makes this game unique is its real-time mechanics – it’s not a turn-based game. Instead, your pieces and those of your opponents move concurrently, which means you could be attacked while planning your next action. This requires quick thinking and strategic decisions in the moment.
I enjoy the tough test that the game offers, maneuvering past lethal traps, tactical hurdles, and employing tools such as Tile Breakers, Deceivers, and Snares to outsmart opponents. Additionally, you can arm yourself with crossbows, spiked tiles, and blades for an extra edge.
Explore various worlds and fight powerful bosses
One intriguing aspect of this game is watching the story unfold as it develops. As you advance, the tale takes unforeseen twists and turns, introducing fresh features and even more thrilling experiences that surpass traditional Chess. Furthermore, players can tailor their team by assigning distinct abilities to Rook, Pawn, and Bishop pieces.
The game “Rookie Tales” has been released as a preliminary version on Android devices, which can be downloaded through the Google Play Store. At this time, there are no details about an iOS release or a worldwide launch. Keep checking back for further announcements!
