Stormfall: Rise of Balur Now Available on Mobile Devices Posted: 19 Jan 2015 09:22 AM PST Plarium, a leading mobile and social game developer, has today announced the expansion of its (MMO) medieval franchise, Stormfall, to iOS and Android mobile devices. The new title, Stormfall: Rise of Balur, immerses players in a world of ancient magic, dragons, and heroes with the mission of restoring Stormfall to its former glory. Players must rebuild the throne of a fallen empire by forming strategic alliances with other players and waging war against their rivals. Its predecessor on social media, Stormfall: Age of War, was a smash hit upon its release in November 2012, instantly gaining notoriety for the title's advanced level of graphics, audio and depth. The title went on to generate over 30 million registered users in the United States, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, the United Kingdom, Russia and more. Plarium seeks to continue this momentum by reaching new and existing players on-the-go with the launch on mobile devices. Major updates for iOS and Android devices include an optimized user interface to fit portrait orientation, streamlined action menus, new game mechanisms and buildings. The 3D graphics have been bolstered to take full advantage of the latest mobile capabilities, including a brighter display, heightened attention to character and environmental detail with more on-screen activity at a single time. "As mobile continues to be a thriving platform for gaming, Stormfall: Rise of Balur allows our hardcore community to immerse themselves in an MMO experience, all at their own convenience," said Avi Shalel, Plarium's CEO. "In addition to enhancing the features that made the social version so popular, we redesigned many visual aspects of the game to increase clarity and depth, and adapt to a smaller screen." Stormfall: Rise of Balur provides users with real-time strategic gameplay, allowing them to acquire resources through battling with competing castles, and engaging in raids and trades with other users.
