Hey Everyone!

As you know, we announced our newest game, Slider Scouts. It will be our first Free App, and will work on both tablets and phones. So far, we have shown you what happens when you slide left and slide right. But you can also slide up too!

We will start outside the lodge, just as you normally do in the game. However, this time you have collected enough coins to awaken the Great Slider Shrine. When this happens, the gate clears and the Slider Shrine’s eyes are open and ablaze.

When this happens, simply slide your Slider Scout up towards the shrine. After offering up your collected coins, the Slider Shrine will be awash in a magical blue aura.

Once that process is complete, the statue’s stone mouth will open sending tremors across the campgrounds.  Inside will be a new Scout who will surely be thankful for its mystical rescue.

So now you know there are several ways to earn new Scouts. First, you can unlock them as you level up. Secondly, you can use the Slider Shrine for a chance to unlock a new Scout. All the while, you can cut to the chase, and buy them directly in the Scout Lodge. So everything in the game can be earned for free, but if you are in a rush, you can use in-app purchases. Pretty cool, eh!

Also coins that you use at the Shrine can be earned in several ways, like collecting them on your adventure, earning a bag of coins at designated Ranks, and other ways that we will discuss next week.

Stay tuned for more sneak peeks of Slider Scouts!

Hey Everyone!

As you know, we announced our newest game, Slider Scouts. It will be our first Free App, and will work on both tablets and phones. Last week we showed you what happens when you slide right, so this week we will be sliding left!

We will start outside the lodge, just as you normally do in the game.

From there, you will simply slide your slider to the left to go inside the Scout Lodge. In the first room, you’ll notice several things. All playable Scouts will appear in the room. Simply click on the available Scout to start playing as them. The bottom of the screen shows the five possible scouts in the room. Some of them are playable (blue button), currently in use (grey button), unlocked at a certain rank, or can be purchased directly (green button). At the top of the first room is your Merit Badge display case. Just swipe your slider up in this room to view your badges.

In the display case you will see your current side quest along with any other merit badges you have earned while playing. When you start your adventure, you will be assigned a side quest which will pop up at the bottom of the screen. After you complete the quest, you will earn a merit badge and a reward. Then, after a period of time, you will be assigned a new side quest.

Let’s go back to the Scout Lodge. There are many many rooms in the lodge that are filled with potential Slider Scouts to unlock. Each room is fully customizeable by clicking on the “house” button at the top of the screen. Here you can change the color of the walls, trim, and flooring. You can also scroll through an inventory of furniture that you have earned.

Yes… FURNITURE! As you play the game, you will unlock furniture in various ways that you can use to decorate your rooms. Once you have fully decked out your room, you’ll be ready for the Scouts to party!

Stay tuned for more sneak peeks of Slider Scouts!

Hey Everyone!

As you know, last week we announced our newest game, Slider Scouts. It will be our first Free App, and will work on both tablets and phones. This week we wanted to dive right into the gameplay!

The inspiration for Slider Scouts came from a mini-game we created for Papa’s Pastaria called “Slider Escape”. In that mini-game, you can simply slide your Slider Burger up, down, left, and right in order to reach the escape trampoline and claim your mini-game prize from Foodini. Slider Scouts takes that simple premise of a game and evolves it into something really big and wildly fun! So lets begin…

When you start the game, you first come to this splash screen…

You start off as a lone Slider Scout, late for camp. To the left of you is an unusually empty lodge, and to the right is a path that leads to the great outdoors. All you have to do is swipe right on the screen to send your slider on an adventure through the uncharted forest, where there are new surprises around every corner.

Each puzzling path can be solved by sliding your Slider Scout up, down, left, or right. When starting out, you have 30 seconds to get from room to room. Along the way you will be able to collect coins and point stars.

You’ll want to plan your route to avoid obstacles like bottomless pits and pop-up spikes. But don’t get too stressed out if you mess up and get sent back to the lodge. You’ll keep all your coins and points you have collected on your journey. As you earn more points, you will level up your Rank and unlock new locations, earn bonus coins, and new Scouts!

As you progress down the uncharted, ever-changing path, you will discover new locations, obstacles and enemies.

We’re just scratching the surface of Slider Scouts, as this seemingly-simple game is filled to the brim with puzzles, new friends, and all sorts of things to unlock. So stay tuned for more sneak peeks of Slider Scouts!
