Commander Keen is a fresh, fun reimagining of id Software’s classic Commander Keen franchise for mobile devices from ZeniMax Online Studios. The twin children of the original Billy Blaze – Billie and her brother Billy – will use wacky gadgets, quick thinking, and ingenuity to out manoeuvre invading Vorticons to save Earth.
A new experience for a new generation of fans, Commander Keen re-envisions the platforming gameplay from the classic titles and injects it with card-based, strategic gameplay. Long-time Keen fans will return to familiar storylines from the past when adventuring in single player Story Mode and encounter new challenges when going head-to-head against other players in real-time gadget races in Battle Mode.
Commander Keen will be free-to-play for iOS and Android mobile devices at launch.
KEY FEATURES:
- Fun, Fast-Paced Gameplay - Commander Keen combines strategic platforming and quick thinking with gadget-based gameplay while innovating on the real-time platforming history of the original series. Mixing movement and attacking with a deckbuilding card game for the series’ wacky gadgets provides fans of Keen and new players alike a unique experience filled with inventive combos and wild moments.
- Nostalgic Style and Humor - Commander Keen brings back the visual style made popular by Saturday morning cartoons in the 1980s and 90s. The irreverent Billie and Billy will fight their way through ABSOLUTELY DIABOLICAL bad guys that look and act as if they were ripped right out of classic childhood cartoons.
- Build an Arsenal of Gadgets, Gear, and Weapons - Collect dozens of cards to stuff your deck with cool gadgets (including Keen’s iconic pogo stick), gear, and weapons to blast, bounce, and zap your way through the bad guys. With so many gadgets at your disposal, you can overcome any challenge the alien invaders throw at you.
- Callbacks to Classic Keen Storylines - Designed to harken back to the nostalgic feeling of the original Keen games, the new Commander Keen will have familiar storylines fans enjoyed in the original, with Easter eggs and callbacks sprinkled throughout the game.
