  NGames Reveal More Tales of Laputa Details

[This unedited press release is made available courtesy of Gamasutra and its partnership with notable game PR-related resource GamesPress.]

NGames, a leading online games developer and publisher, has today revealed more gameplay details for the upcoming magical new web RPG, Tales of Laputa. With over 100 monsters and more than 300 anime style characters, every player can experience a unique adventure on the isles of Laputa.

Combining RPG gameplay with classic anime elements, Tales of Laputa thrusts players into a brave new world where magic and machinery coexist, and the threat of demonic invasions is an ever-present danger. As a member of the Order – a society of heroes established to safeguard Laputa - players not only face an epic struggle against notorious Bandits vying to overthrow the island, they must also seek to reveal the true history of Laputa in order to finally lead the City of Sky into a new era of peace of prosperity.

NGames has today revealed a first glimpse at the robust feature list awaiting players in Tales of Laputa, which will be free-to-play on the publisher's Game321.com online games portal alongside award-winning smash hits, Pockie Ninja II Original and Pockie Pirates - the Naruto, Bleach and One Piece-licensed MMO's.

Tales of Laputa, a new animated web RPG for 2013, promises fast turn-based combat where timing and skill is everything. The battle system has been designed from the ground up to ensure that players who use their skills at the opportune moments are the ones rewarded with victory during battles, not just those with the strongest skill set.

Tales of Laputa gives players access to over 150 types of pet for breeding, companionship, and competition in the Pet Arena. A dedicated guild system will let players fight side-by-side with their news friends and pets, bringing the social elements of Laputa to the forefront of the gaming experience.

Through a multitude of challenging dungeon quests, players can discover the many hidden secrets of Laputa while gathering endless loot for their character and guilds, but only if they manage to defeat each dungeon's boss waiting at the end. As players increase their 'Rage meter', more monsters and bosses will reveal themselves throughout their adventures on Laputa, and more perils will be encountered as players face off against regional bosses on their travels.

With access to swordsmen, mages, snipers, assassins and priests as well as more surprising choices like singing plants and magical dragons, players will have more than enough skills to call upon when faced with Tales of Laputa's epic battles.

Can the Order protect Laputa from the destructive force of the Bandits? To do so, friends will need to band together to help create an organization even greater than the Order of Morias.
