Squad Busters

Gameplay

Squad Busters is a casual action multiplayer game where the player builds their squad of characters, called Squaddies, and battle monsters and against other players. The player can collect coins to purchase Squaddies at chests found on each map. Getting a duplicate of a Squaddie already in the player's squad fuses the two of them, resulting in a single powered-up Squaddie, while collecting a third of a Squaddie results in a Mega Squaddie. Every Squaddie have passive abilities, called Traits, and a unique Power move which can be activated during battle. Power moves are manually activated and go on a cooldown period after being used, which the player must wait before using the Power move again. Traits and Power moves are unlocked and upgraded by leveling up a character, called Evolution. Hero characters are special Squaddies that have a different progression system. They do not evolve and are upgraded using Hero Points. Before a match, the player chooses a Hero character, two Squaddies, and two Power moves to start the match with. The Power moves chosen before the match do not have to match the two Squaddies chosen. During battle, the player has three Power moves, one from their Hero character and two that are chosen beforehand. The player can activate Turbo, allowing the squad to move faster. If the Hero character is defeated, the entire squad is busted, and the player loses the match. Squaddies will attack automatically when nearby enemies are not using attacking other players. Each match has one or two Battle Mods, special modifiers that change the flow and rules of a match. Battle Mods are chosen at the start of a match, and are unlocked as the player unlocks new worlds. There are four game modes: Showdown, Gem Hunt, Duo Gem Hunt, and Squad League. In Showdown, the goal of the game is to be the last squad standing, in a five player battle royale. In Gem Hunt, Duo Gem Hunt, and Squad League, the goal is to get the most gems at the end of the match, through a four minute time period. In Duo Gem Hunt, one plays in teams of two players, four teams total. If one or one's teammate is busted, one will respawn after a short period of time as long as the other…
