Have you ever wanted to harness the power of a mysterious relic? Boiling Bolt will let you do just that.
After an ancient war tore the very Earth to pieces, separating it into numerous flying islands, the magical crystals maintaining these islands are now wished for by some very evil people. You, as a young rebel known as June who is fighting against slavers that had taken over the world decades ago, will have the fortune of stumbling across a ship which has the power of the mysterious relic called the Boiling Bolt instilled in it.
The stage is set to take back the island – and no ordinary arsenal or ability will get the job done. Enter a plethora of magical weapons such as the Plasma Whip and Thunder Lock, as well as the power to slow down time, dodging attacks and planning out strategies, and you have the formula for a very interesting and tactical 2.5D manga-like shooter.
To get the most out of Boiling Bolt, and the very highest scores to boast about, you will have to master the bullet time system implemented within, and use it in combination with dynamic weapons and other abilities to play the way you see fit. What’s more, the game will be open to a co-op player to come along for the thrilling ride, allowing for more opportunities for strategy. Add this to different modes, 30 Challenges and local and online rankings to top, along with some colourful animation and a customizable ship, and Boiling Bolt seems quite the exciting prospect – provided you like your shooters and manga.
Boiling Bolt is available right now from the Microsoft Store. It comes at the price of £9.59.
