Finished Everlands this weekend. I enjoyed it a lot. It's a fairly simplistic hex-based strategy RPG with a cute story. You lead a band of animals on a quest to find the source of the corruption poisoning the river and forest in Everlands and turning the animals into raging beasts. Most levels you meet a new type of enraged animal, and once you beat the level, you get to use the newly freed animal. Different animals have different abilities, like Hippo reduces all incoming attacks by 1, Tiger reduces all adjacent enemies' attacks by 1, Leopard and Snake are quick and attack first every time. Each animal has HP and attack and it's just simple addition and subtraction + or - the occasional modifier to determine damage.
Like I said, it's hex-based. Each battlefield is just a pattern of hex spaces, 6 sides. Each animal is on a 6-sided piece and you play one anywhere on the board each turn. Characters already on the board are "defending" and characters being placed are "attacking." Defending characters always attack first, except for Leopard and Snake. Each piece has arrows on some combination of its sides and those arrows are the direction it can attack. Porcupine, for example, can logically attack from all sides except 1, underneath its belly.
It's cool that the game adds so many characters. There are probably 15 or so by the end to use, plus the special story ones that the computer uses, which get really strong by the end! There were one or two battles that I had to try a handful of times, but for the most part they take one or two tries. The goal on each map is to get over 50% of the animals converted to your side. When you defeat an enemy animal, it just changes color to your side, so you win by conversion. Some maps have additional objectives, like save the raging hippo or something. But yeah, fun little phone game!
