VPI.Net Launches ‘AR3NA’ iPhone, iPod Touch Game of War, Strategy, & Tactical Duels

Irvine, CA, September 21, 2009 --(PR.com)-- shigglez.com/#/IPhone/AR3NAAR3NA, the new iPhone and iPod touch game from VPI.Net, is now up on iTunes looking for players who want to engage in a tactical duel between you and your opponent (your “friend” or the computer.) It’s a game of strategy and war – only minutes to learn and hours to master. The launch is the latest in a series of successful VPI.Net game apps, including “Curse of the Lost Tomb.”

Here is the storyline:
“Welcome to Arenia! A land rich with wild life and minerals, Arenia is also home to two rival forces- the Emeraldians and Amthysts. Both factions wage an endless battle in their struggle for supremacy. The warriors, archers, and wizards of the Emeralidans and Amthysts embody a deadly combination of skill and magic, and your chance has come to change the tides of war!

“AR3NA is a tactical duel between you and your opponent (your "friend" or the computer). Commanding the Emeraldian army- a warrior, an archer, and a wizard, you must destroy your opponent's team by manipulating the strengths of your army and its position on the board. Each class is identified by its health, moving range, and attack abilities.”

The key players:
Warrior: High damage within close range but limited movement
Archer: Directed, long range damage
Wizard: Powerful area attacks but limited health

Like many tactic games, AR3NA is round based, but you and your opponents move and attack at the same time. Neither you nor your opponent will know what the other person will do in each round. Only until both players have chosen a move and an attack for that round will the action unfurl.

Features:
- Multiplayer capability over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
- Fantastic artwork with awesome sprite animations and effects
- Unique classes with different attacks, health levels, and movements
- Sudden death after round 10 (Attack damage x 2)
- Plan ahead by strategically placing your army around the board before the game begins
- Great music and sound effects
