World of Warriors (2014)

nicolaanaru


Platform: Android, IOS, PlayStation 4

Genre: RPG

Publisher: Mind Candy

Developer: Mind Candy


Notes: Cutesy fighting game whose characters are pillaged from various cultures of the world. The Māori character is Manawa, whose Fandom wiki has the following for his bio: Performing a new haka alongside fellow raiders, Manawa was inches away from an enemy warrior's face when he was unceremoniously head-butted. Waking up in a burning war canoe filled with dead bodies he wondered if his haka had invoked the wrong gods when he suddenly was summoned to the Wildlands.


Overall Rating: Entertaining yet insensitive, in a It’s a Small World After All kind of way.
