Hi AppUnwrapper, matching goes by color, shape and image on the tiles. The image posted above is only a display of the tile varieties available in game (not to show the actual matching system or tile board), sorry for any confusion caused! 1st three rows show the unit tiles that are upgradeable as you level up your characters (left being what you start out with and right being the highest level) and the 4th row consists of other utility tiles that are also paramount to gameplay. We have a few more special tiles that aren't revealed here But wait, I think this will be better shown with a gameplay video!
Announcing it here first on TouchArcade, our gameplay teaser is ready! Check it out Subscribe to the TouchArcade YouTube channel
NEED. THIS. NOW. As if I wasn't already excited for this game, this trailer sealed the deal. Can't wait to find out a release date so that I can start a countdown until I have this game in my greedy little hands! Great job! It looks awesome!
Holy crap everything just got better with the music! I love it! Such a tease though, please show us more!
After trying out the similar Battle for Blood (was also premium) i have to say that The Long Siege looks awesome by comparison, i just hope it's very balanced with the currency earning and upgrades, and not grindy - IAP geared like Battle for Blood.
Thanks locomoco!!! The game is set to release this end of the month or early July 2015, we will be announcing an official release date next week, do keep a lookout! Glad you like the music aaoh! It's an original beautifully composed by the brilliant LAI (Lupus Ab Intra). We hear ya more features to reveal this week and stay tuned for our trailer next week! Hi ramzarules, we appreciate the feedback! Our team has been hard at work to balance the game constantly to make sure that it's challenging without the grindy feel. And not to worry, we have no IAPs at all so it won't be dependent on that
no IAPS at all? you just moved me from 70% to 100%... Wish you all the best and a fast perfect release
Hi guys and gals, it's time for more updates! We've prepared a few goodies to showcase some features, these ones highlight the seamless transitions of the game UI, a simple swipe is all you need [from UI to game start] [level up and unlocking upgrades]
This looks fantastic And gorgeous! I need to pay better attention to you guys. Would love to gain early access to games like this in the future. Definitely putting this on my watch list! Great work guys.
Congrats on the front page write up. I have been a match 3 fanatic for many years, and like a few other like minded TA'ers have played literally hundreds of match 3s. There are only a few that remain memorable, but the video looks like you may fall into that very special category. Best of luck with the game and the launch and I will likely be one of the early players. Releasing in June or July?
Thanks for the positive feedback guys it's really great hearing from you! We're thrilled to be featured on the front page http://toucharcade.com/2015/06/18/the-long-siege-looks-like-a-gorgeous-match-3-strategy-game/ @pluto6, the game will launch in July 2015, I'll keep the thread updated on the official announcement of the release date Here's one of the GIFs I missed out earlier, it shows the level transition as you progress in game, hope you all like it!
Looking forward to this one. After not being all that thrilled with YMBAB, maybe this one will be more my thing. The aesthetics are certainly strong.
Cheers guys!! Our refinements are almost done and we can show you more goodies soon, plus we added a couple more features you haven't seen yet Stay tuned!
