Calling all bounty hunters! The dark and mysterious world of Dros has officially made its way to Xbox.
After gaining positive reviews on PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch, Dros has now expanded its reach to console players, offering a captivating dark fantasy adventure that blends puzzle-solving, exploration and action.
Dros introduces players to an unlikely partnership between two very different beings: Little Dros, a small gooey creature, and Captain, a human bounty hunter. Together, they must put aside their differences and work in harmony to navigate through the dangerous and unpredictable Alchemy Tower, a maze of 40 levels filled with intricate puzzles, strange characters and ancient collectibles.
Body-swapping mechanics for dynamic gameplay
One of the standout features of Dros is the body-swapping mechanic between Little Dros and Captain. Each character offers distinct abilities, and players must cleverly alternate between them to solve puzzles and advance through the game.
Little Dros is agile, able to jump, squirm, and stealth through narrow spaces, while Captain brings the muscle, using his strength to move objects and fight enemies.
