Popslime

In front of you comes a battlefield full of slimes, but you don't have to constantly control your character to fight, you just have to drag your mouse to join in the monster hunt. Popslime is an action top down battle game with idle RPG mechanics, where you keep gaining damage, currency and resources to increase your power. The deeper you go the more the action ramps up with more creatures, a more complex upgrade system and new difficulties appearing.

Popslime: Drag Your Mouse to Auto-Hunt Slimes and Build Your Team

Popslime’s gameplay is unique, in that it mixes direct control with automatic fighting. You move your cursor in a circle all around the arena to kill colourful slimes. In the meantime, archer, defensive towers and four special talents keep attacking automatically.

When monsters are defeated they drop gold and loot. This is a key resource for unlocking new upgrades and increasing damage and combat time.

Four main talents make up diverse attack styles:

• Lightning Chain: Fires a chain of lightning between targets.
• Rain of Arrows: Summons a rain of arrows to damage an area.
• Knight Slash: Fires a strong slash at adversaries.
• Vampire Explosion: Causes an explosion that drains blood.

167 Upgrade Buttons and Several Paths of Development

If you simply kill slimes the trek would soon get tedious. Popslime avoids this with an upgrade tree of 167 buttons, opening multiple battle systems and character creation possibilities.

You can boost attack power, increase turn duration or increase the number of creatures appearing. Also, there are various development options from the Archer's eight skills, five types of defensive towers and eight powers from the Mysterious Well.

Runes, Gems and Permanent Monster Bonuses

The equipment system is also worth mentioning. Players can gather runes in six different rarities, mine ore to manufacture gems and use three gem slots to increase stats that fit their strategy. A very good example of permanent rewards when collected are the 15 Shiny Monsters.

40 Levels + Endless Mode to Beat

The main campaign has 40 stages, getting progressively harder. You need to kill a certain amount of enemies to unlock the next stage. Besides the usual hunts there are extra modes in the game:

• Stage Runs: Replay unlocked stages to collect gold and goods.
• Boss Runs: Challenge the Slime Overlords that emerge from a mystery well.
• Treasure Runs: Break treasure chests for more goodies.
• Endless Mode: Keep battling after stage 40 and push your limitations.

Automator and Competitive Leaderboards

Daily, weekly, monthly and all-time leaderboards offer provide other goals to compete against others. If you wish to skip taking care of each round, Automator can also automatically repeat hunting rounds and acquire improvements without your direct input.

If you’re into RPGs that are all about constant upgrading, monster slaying, and playing around with different power builds, Popslime is your jam.
