8-Bit Attack

8-Bit Attack is a turn-based tactics game in which you command a hodgepodge of heroes from multiple fantasy universes. They defend the galaxy from the evil Lord Cthulhu and his minions, who threaten all life. You battle through four types of levels, gaining gear and upgrading characters after each successful fight, before facing Lord Cthulhu himself. Careful planning, coordinated attacks and the heroes’ unique abilities determine whether your team defeats the invading monsters.

Plan each battle

Combat proceeds through repeating phases until all enemies or all heroes are dead:

1. Choose which hero each enemy will attack during the combat sequence.
2. Assign heroes to attack enemies. You can concentrate attacks on a powerful enemy or target an enemy healer.
3. Use hero abilities. These can include attacking an additional time, adding critical strikes or healing allies.
4. Heroes attack first, followed by the enemies. This lets you target an enemy to defeat it before it can make a major attack.

Upgrade your heroes

After a battle, you receive medals depending on its difficulty. Spend them to upgrade your units with additional stats, healing potions or more unique abilities.

Face Lord Cthulhu

After four rounds of fighting, Lord Cthulhu appears as the final boss. He is described as almost impossible to overcome, requiring extensive planning and strategy to defeat.
