If you were with us in April of last year, you may recall our mention of a quirky strategy RPG called Isekai Dispatcher. Now, the developers behind that unique, retro-inspired 'trapped-in-another-world' game are branching out into a more serene and adorable genre with their new match-three game, Ash & Snow. Set to launch on mobile devices on May 15th, this game promises a delightful experience for puzzle enthusiasts.
As with most match-three games, Ash & Snow follows the familiar formula: you'll be matching colored blocks, striving to clear as many as possible to boost your score. Along the way, you'll encounter power-ups to help you clear blocks faster and rack up more points.
However, the real charm of Ash & Snow lies in its two titular mascots: Ash and Snow. These lovable kittens will accompany you throughout your puzzle-solving journey, appearing on the main screen or watching from the top left corner as you play.
In the world of match-three puzzlers, where innovative twists on the genre are common, Ash & Snow's main draw might seem quaint at first glance. Yet, the inclusion of these adorable felines taps into the proven appeal of animal characters in mobile gaming, particularly cats and the recently popular capybaras. This approach could well translate into solid game sales.
With only a month left until its release and details still emerging, we'll be keeping a close watch for any new information on Ash & Snow ahead of its launch.
