Brand new this week - 6 new enemies to fight, 2 new weapons, a new boss to conquer and a brand new spooky world to do it all in! We promised you it’d be a big one, and we like to think we delivered!
The latest addition to Tango Fiesta - Ghoul Squad - sees your heroic adventures take a turn for the spooky as you fight your way through zombies and ghosts to defeat Old Ramishar, an evil spirit intent on merging the dark spirit world with our own. It won’t end well… for him!
Old Ramishar is a nasty piece of work, and will summon zombies to aid him!
We’ve not stopped there. With three tpyes of undead zombie, and three types of evil ghost to contend with, you’ll have your work cut out.
Zombie
The Zombie is slow, tough, and claws at your flesh for the juicy brains inside!
Bloat
The Bloat is slower, tougher, and even more hungry than the Zombie!
Ghoul
The Ghoul is fast and a real threat, still pretty hard to take down!
Ghost
The Ghost is spits yucky ectoplasm at you from range. Fast but weak, they can move through scenery!
Spectre
The Spectre is a bit bigger and likes to give you a goo-covered lick… but you really don’t want to let them!
Revenant
The Revenant is a bit slower, but raises any ‘dead’ zombies within range… they can become very dangerous very quickly!
So how are you going to fight all of these new threats? Well we’ve got two killer new weapons for you to unlock and fight with!
Neutron Napsack
this bad boy is pure power - deal constant streams of damage, chain it across multiple enemies, but whatever you do - don’t cross the streams! Well… maybe try it just once?
Ghost Trap
Deploy with care - freezes anything in a radius on the spot for a few seconds… including you and your team mates!
