Kotaku writes: "THQ was here in New York City this week to preview its Fall 2008 and holiday season titles, and to me, one of the most promising titles was Lock's Quest, a DS genre mashup that's a little bit real-time strategy, and a little bit action, due for release sometime this fall.
The first thing that caught my eye when it was shown to me was its old-school vibe: traditional-looking 2D sprites and animation plus anime vibe, a little bit of a surprise from a publisher who seems to have hitched its star on family-friendly titles with broader appeal.
So what's cool about Lock's Quest?"
The Playasia New Year’s Sale is running until January 4, 2021 with deals on games like The Last of Us Part II Collector’s Edition and Persona 5 Royal Phantom Thieves Edition. Plus, several games are on sale as part of the site’s Weekly Special including Lock’s Quest and Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes Complete Edition.
It’s not often that a port of a game is regarded with comparable praise to its original version. Usually, ports are clunky games, where sacrifices the developers made to squeeze the title into a compact package are plainly visible. Of course, there are strong examples like Old School RuneScape and some of the Final Fantasy games (such as FFIX), titles that are true to their original versions and outright playable. At $7.99 on Android and $6.99 on iOS, Lock’s Quest sits among these stronger ports, largely due to its inherent mechanics.
HandyGames and THQ Nordic are today very happy to announce that their Tower Defense/RTS/RPG s "Lock's Quest" is now available for iOS and Android devices.
