The award-winning card strategy game Phobies has reached a significant milestone—its second anniversary—and it's throwing a monster party to celebrate. The Birthday Bash: Monster Mash event promises to deliver new thrills to the game's passionate fans with the introduction of seven new phobia-inspired characters, known as "Phobies," that players can collect and use in their strategic battles.
The seven new Phobies aren't just another batch of characters; each one has unique abilities designed to shake up gameplay and provide new tactics for players to explore. Among the intriguing new Phobies is Prometheus, a character that changes the battlefield in a fiery fashion. Prometheus has the ability to create lava tiles, areas of the game board that can be detrimental to opponents but beneficial to players who control him. Prometheus quickly stands out as a character that can turn the tide in battle, particularly since he can traverse his own fiery terrains with ease. For those eager to add him to their collection, Prometheus will be available in a special offer that runs until April 2nd.
The game is not just about offensive power, and this is highlighted by the unique teleportation ability of Fantôme. This Phobie can strategically maneuver friendly units across the map, allowing for swift changes in battle tactics and potentially outmaneuvering opponents. Another newcomer to the Phobies roster is the Collector, who possesses the peculiar talent of wielding tax documents as a weapon to baffle and overwhelm enemies.
Players can expect to meet Haphe, whose strength grows in response to the blows it withstands, turning what would be disadvantages into opportunities. On the supportive end, Le Shovell speeds up the entry of other Phobies into the fray, while Hercules delivers a formidable sting to opponents. Last but not least is Brutewurst, a Phobie that might best be described as a bad sausage, capable of making enemy Phobies ill with its attacks.
The Birthday Bash: Monster Mash event isn't just about new characters. It's also expanding the Phobies universe with five new maps. These maps offer fresh battlegrounds and strategic challenges that will require players to rethink their approach and test out their new Phobies' abilities.
As part of the four-week celebrations starting from the launch on March 5th, players are invited to visit Vendy's Shop starting from March 7th for some surprise birthday treats. Developers hint at the possibility of some of the biggest rewards ever offered in the game being up for grabs during this event, adding an extra layer of excitement to the anniversary festivities.
Phobies has come a long way in two years, standing out with its unique concept—characters and creatures inspired by irrational fears and phobias. The game tests players' tactics and strategies as they duel others in the subconscious realm, with a roster that now exceeds 120 distinct Phobies. Each one can be leveled up to become more effective in battles that can be played in asynchronous or arena modes.
Developed by Smoking Gun Interactive, Phobies has proven its popularity across various platforms. It's accessible on the App Store, Google Play, and Steam, ensuring that players can indulge their strategic cravings on their preferred devices. To remain updated on all the new developments, including Phobie reveals, in-game events, and community news, one can follow Phobies across social media platforms such as Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, Twitter, and Facebook.
