Experience the exhilarating adventure of Hotstone, a gorgeous, action-packed, puzzle journey. Tilt your iOS device to roll your Stone through puzzles, breaking 22 unique tile types, each with a unique effect on your Stone: changing its heat, effecting its movement, even destroying it! Roll through each level to smash through crystal portals or confront the giant boss!
During your journey, you will unlock the story of Halus, the giant from an authentic Atayal legend (the Atayal are an indigenous people of Taiwan). His story is told through a stunning, full-color, hand-drawn, digitally rendered comic that you can read inside the game!
◆◆How to Play:
Hotstone uses the tilt feature (accelerometer) of your device to steer a rolling Stone through puzzle mazes. Each puzzle level is populated with a selection of animal and obstacle tiles which interact with your Stone in a variety of ways.
Some tiles effect movement by slowing, speeding up, or blocking your Stone. Some will destroy your Stone on contact!
Some tiles change the temperature state of your Stone and/or require a specific temperature to break. Your Stone will be destroyed if its temperature gets too high or too low, and you must arrive at the Portal or Giant tile with maximum heat to pass each level.
