Zuko Monsters (lost role-playing mobile game; 2013): Difference between revisions

Latest revision as of 11:03, 11 August 2024

First version of the app icon.

Status: Lost

Zuko Monsters was an iOS-exclusive role-playing mobile game released by Goodbeans GmbH on January 31, 2013. The game was later republished by Lunatic Donkey GbR in mid-2015, after Goodbeans applied for bankruptcy. Zuko Monsters shut down along with the publisher in 2020.

Gameplay

The gameplay was heavily inspired by Pokémon; one could capture monsters, evolve them and battle against their friends in Battle Arena. There were over 30 "zuko monsters" one could capture.

Shutdown/Availability

Zuko Monsters was taken down from the App Store when the publisher Lunatic Donkey closed in 2020. Since the game was only available for iOS, and archiving iOS games require more technical work than Android apps, chance is that there is very few copies of it anywhere.

On November 7, 2014, a link to an IPA of the game (version 4.5) was posted on the Chinese forum Xiawai, but the website hosting it isn't online anymore.
