Pop culture-inspired action figures have been an eternal favourite of children. Generations have grown up with action figures that can bend, twist, move arms, and do all sorts of cool things. Who can forget the awesome plastic figures of Star Wars characters, Marvel Universe or even our good-old Barbie and Ken?
Action toy meets interactive gameplay
Smartivity’s newest offering, STEAM Warriors: Clash of Dragons, is a true homage to this love for action toys. Clash of Dragons is a two-player interactive game in which two action figures, namely Drogo and Cygon, are caught in an epic battle to gain the control of STEAMVERSE — an imaginary universe of STEAM learning. Children are required to build the dragons from scratch, put it on consoles and make them fight with each other. The game ends when one of the two players earns five points, thereby emerging victorious.
A worthy sequel
Clash of Dragons is a worthy sequel to Clash of Cyborgs that involved two cyborgs, called Sorcher and Ice Breaker, who were similarly locked in a thrilling battle for the STEAMVERSE.
This game brings the same thrill of the earlier version with two brand new characters — two mythical dragons. Our STEAM ninjas who have loved the cyborg version of the game will be equally stoked to play with these fearsome creatures.
Meet the dragons
The characters of the gameplay are two fierce dragons - Drogo and Cygon. While Drogo breathes fire, Cygon on the other hand has metallic moves that can counter the fiery fury of Drogo. Both of them are locked in an epic battle that can only have one winner. All they need is a bit of support from our STEAM ninjas.
