Heroes of War: Nanowarrior declares war on mobile

From what we can tell, a Nanowarrior isn’t actually a really really small soldier – it’s a futuristic fighter from Qplaze new 3D shooter for the mobile.

We just reviewed another game in the Heroes of War series, Sand Storm (which, moral questions aside, we sadly found disappointing), though this takes the battle from recognisable Middle East skirmishes and throws it into an equally unstable future.

Featuring anti-aliasing, dynamic lighting and all kinds of posh 3D effects, this game actually reads a little like Crysis, or Halo 3, which is no bad party line. The heroes in Nanowarrior wear battle suits with shields, cloaking devices and modular weapons, adding an air of stealth to the FPS mechanics.

It also promises a decent storyline and a selection of mini-games to keep the action hot, though exactly what these plot points and add-ons will be hasn’t yet been disclosed.

Until we have more details, we’ll leave the Qplaze press release to have the final word:

“Weapon doesn't matter - death always draws the final line, and the enemy always stays a person who will probably be remembered by somebody. Remembered and regretted.”

Er, yeah. Video looks okay, though.

Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
