Mech Mice is a strategy tactical role-playing game developed by Hyper Hippo Games and Oktober Animation.[1] Players are able to control multiple mice soldiers, in a fictional military force known as the Mech Mice, to battle the Dark Union and other predators and protect the fictional content of Roden. Mech Mice beta was released on 9 July 2013, and was officially made available on 8 October 2013. In an effort to expand the brand, the main game was renamed to Mech Mice Tactics on 1 March 2014. An animated series co-produced by Oktober Animation, Nelvana, and Playmates Toys was announced in 2015.[2][better source needed]
Gameplay
[edit]Mech Mice Tactics is divided into multiple seasons, each including various chapters. As of May 2015[update], only one season is available with two playable chapters. The third chapter is currently being developed, though its release date is unknown.
Each chapter has a different storyline from the others, though they all add up to one large story that concludes in the final chapter for the season. The player controls different characters who each have their own special abilities. As a turn-based game, the protagonists and antagonists will take turns on attacks, each attack being one at a time. Each chapter typically ends with a final boss fight.
