'The Counter of Death' Gets Huge Content Update and De-Bruce Lee-ified
One game that has been very popular in our community but has flown mostly under the radar since its release in June is The Counter of Death [Free] from developer Curlking. This twitch reaction game has you facing off against an onslaught of foes by countering their attacks which leads to you automatically launching an offense of your own. It's done very simply by either touching the giant upper counter button or lower counter button, and paying close attention to your enemy's motions prior to their strike is key to being successful. For such simple mechanics, The Counter of Death is a surprisingly strategic game, and made even better by its fantastic presentation that mimicked old-school kung-fu movies to a T.
As was obvious to anyone who even glanced at the app icon for The Counter of Death though, the game was very, VERY heavily inspired by Bruce Lee and his stable of classic films. Well, it turned out that The Counter of Death hewed a bit TOO close to the iconic Bruce Lee, and caused a licensing issue that resulted in the game being temporarily pulled from the App Store. Curlking was already deep in the development of a major update, so that work also turned into changing some of the visuals in the game so they weren't so blatantly similar to the martial arts icon. Today, that huge update and the relaunch of The Counter of Death has arrived. The biggest addition is a brand new campaign called The SUPER Counter of Death. Yes, taking a queue from the beloved Street Fighte...
