We are happy to announce the long awaited 1.0.8 Content Update patch for April, nice and early for celebrating this Easter holiday!
This Content Update patch adds Armo's Arcade that was previously locked, unlocks the game cartridges across the worlds and allows you to play some exciting classic arcade games. Players with the top score will unlock access to something incredibly exciting!
Along with this, we have also made some further improvements, polishing the graphics, fixing some long standing issues and more. Read further on the full change log!
Armo's Arcade - Find the game cartridges across the game worlds to unlock access to the arcade machines! We've also added a shortcut on the World Select Menu so you don't have to keep going back to the Isle O Rats once you've entered Armo's for the first time.
Game Carts are hidden in all of the worlds of the game. Can you find them all and unlock something really exciting later?
Robot's Revenge is just one of the classic arcade games now in Armo's Arcade. This is pretty addictive fun and we hope you enjoy!
An example of the graphical enhancements we've made across the game - Water in Gingy's Glacier is lovely now, and Rattie's Keep from the Home Turfs can be seen across the game worlds, helping to interconnect the game's world across the game.
