Dark Lands updated, adds a new story mode and more monsters to slay
Dark Lands is a wonderfully animated endless runner game for your Windows Phone. The game not only challenges you to see how far you can run but also how long you can survive attacks from a wide range of enemies that includes goblins, orcs and skeletons. You also have much tougher bosses to battle scattered throughout your endless run.
The game was updated today, bringing Dark Lands to version 1.2.1, which brings a host of performance improvements, new enemies and a new story based gaming mode with forty challenging levels of game play.
Additional features with the version 1.2.1 update include:
- Two new worlds added to the mix
- A new boss to battle with four new enemies to deal with
- New weapons and armor added to the gaming store
- Improved performance from 30fps to 60fps on most devices
The downside to the update is that due to technical issues, it is not available for Windows Phone 7.x devices. The Windows Phone 7.x version of the game will still be available but won't receive future updates.
Dark Lands is a nice balance between an endless runner game, a fantasy combat game and RPG game. The update only adds to its appeal and helps take the game to a new level.
Thanks, everyone, for the tips!
