The theme of wasteland originated abroad, but with the expansion of influence, the influence of wasteland theme in China is also increasing. In recent years, many wasteland works have been launched in China, and most of these works use their own unique interpretation methods to show the wasteland for everyone. For example, the national comic "Spirit Cage" is the fusion of the traditional Chinese "Tao" culture with the wasteland, which has received a lot of praise. In addition to "Spirit Cage", the "Magic Tower" mobile game that has just opened the public beta has also brought us a different wasteland experience.
When it comes to the wasteland world, most people will think of words such as gray, gloomy, dilapidated, violent, etc., but in the mobile game "Magic Tower", it brings a refreshing "green waste" world. The Fantasy Tower's worldview is set on the planet Ada, a planet where people draw energy from comets while fending off the comet's leaking radiation pollution. After being infected by radiation, people will become alienated people who have destroyed humanity. Radiation, pollution, alienation, and so on, successfully create a sense of despair in the wasteland of the end times.
However, "Magic Tower" does not further immerse players in it, but uses a slightly brighter painting style to dilute this despair. The game is no longer a monotonous gray and dark scene, but more rich and diverse. You can go to science fiction-inspired Hijard to experience the planet's top technology, you can also go to Bangis harbour to feel the bustling people, and you can also go to the Star Island Refuge to experience the real daily life of the wasteland world. The diversified maps and scenes can not only avoid the player's aesthetic fatigue, but also better show the impact of radiation on different regions and different classes.
Of course, not only the diversity of the big scenes, but also the details in each scene. For example, although the Crohn mining area is full of ruins and broken walls, but above these ruins and walls is covered with green vegetation, as if to erase the disasters of the past; and the Navia region, which is a green mountain and water, a thriving scene. The design of these scenes breaks our inherent impression of the apocalyptic wasteland and allows us to see an alternative green wasteland style.
Of course, these mentioned above are only the tip of the iceberg of the "Magic Tower" mobile game, although it is a light science fiction wasteland theme, but the game's project team does not stick to those "formulaic" elements, but in its own way, it interprets a new light science fiction wasteland world for us that has never been seen before. "Magic Tower" has officially opened its public beta on December 16, so you may wish to enter the game for yourself to experience this innovative wasteland world.
