PRESS RELEASE February 21, 2017
Stillfront announces Launch of Moghamarat Al-Abtal (Heroes' Adventure) from Babil Games
Stillfront today soft launched the strategy game "Moghamarat Al-Abtal (Heroes' Adventure)" in the MENA region. The game is published by Stillfront's studio Babil Games. The game is estimated to be fully launched within a couple of weeks both on iOS and Android.
Babil Games Moghamarat Al-Abtal (Heroes Adventure) is built on a Chinese game, which is developed by the Chinese developer Beijing Dream Jelly Technology Co. Babil Games is the first to publish the game overseas.
Babil Games business model is to refine existing games sourced from proven developers and localize and culturize them for the Arabic speaking audience in the MENA region. Babil has several years of exclusive rights and owns the IP of the culturized material.
Moghamarat Al-Abtal (Heroes' Adventure) is a fast-paced 2D-scrolling action adventure game set in a beautifully drawn fantasy world, where players lead a team of unique heroes in order to overcome challenges and vanquish evil solo or with friends.
With over 30 unique heroes to choose from - hard-hitting warriors, defensive tanks, archers, mages and healers each with their own special skills and ultimate moves - the players can choose teams of three heroes to embark on a wide range of adventures. The player can complete over 100+ levels in campaign mode for loot and items, or embark on a nautical journey searching for treasure and overcoming pirates, or challenge the dreaded Magic tower with its unlimited floors filled with hordes of enemies to compete for a place on the leaderboards.
Jörgen Larsson, CEO, Stillfront Group, comments
"Moghamarat Al-Abtal (Heroes' Adventure) is a title that has the characteristics we know appeal to a category of players Babil is well acquainted with. The title is built on a proven formula and successful genre in Asia, and Babil now brings high quality, action fighting RPG with PvP and clan features to the MENA region.
The game fits well into Stillfront's PLEX strategy, as it broadens our portfolio, and further strengthen our growing mobile segment. Third party publishing also provides a very attractive reward/risk balance for Stillfront" Jörgen Larsson, CEO, Stillfront Group comments.
MJ Fahmi, CEO, Babil Games, comments
