As the first game of its kind, Ember Strike combines the addictive gameplay of puzzle games like Bejeweled with PvP matches that pit fighters head to head in fast-paced combat. The game just hit Early Access on Steam today, and it’s completely free to play. Before you dive into battle, stop by the Official Ember Strike Wiki for information on fighters, gameplay, and more.
Though Ember Strike is in Early Access, the core game has been implemented and runs smoothly. In a battle, you’ll power up your fighters’ abilities by matching certain mana stones on the board. Once an ability is fully charged, you’ll partake in a mini-game to attack your opponent. There are a variety of fighters and mini-games available, as well as epic boss fights and multiple worlds.
The game’s developer, Reentry Games, plans to be in Early Access for two to three months to collect community feedback. They expect to have weekly content updates up until the full launch of Ember Strike, which means a constant stream of new game content. When the game is fully released, you can expect at least five unique environments, three heroes, and over one-hundred balanced fighters. Be on the lookout for cross-platform capabilities as well.
If you’re ready to start playing Ember Strike for free, head on over to Steam now. To share game information or learn more about specific features, drop by the Official Wiki on Gamepedia.
