Save the Tribes of Texel from Robotic Invaders in DeNA's 8-Bit Mobile Adventure Game D.O.T. Defender of Texel

D.O.T. Defender of Texel (D.O.T.), an 8-bit fantasy adventure mobile role-playing game from DeNA Co., Ltd. (TSE: 2432), is now available for free download on Android (News - Alert) and iOS devices worldwide via DeNA's Mobage™ social games platform.

In D.O.T., the player is transported to a world that knows no concept of death or war and is under attack from robotic invaders. Thrust into the role of�a defending hero, the player must save the tribes of Texel and open the portal back to reality. In this action- and combat-packed game, players journey through stages, duel enemies, gain rewards, and upgrade gear and characters.

"With D.O.T., we applied everything we learned from our experience developing Blood Brothers and Ninja Royale and infused the game with new game mechanics and a special art design style. D.O.T. features unique 8-bit retro graphics and provides an immersive gaming experience that includes questing, boss fights, player-versus-player matches, elite team building, and character evolution," said Kenji Kobayashi, executive games director at DeNA. "This game hits the sweet spot between retro visuals and unexpected delights, and we're pleased to offer consumers a new kind of high-fantasy mobile adventure game."
