Howl lets you plan up to six steps ahead in tactical turn-based battles, out now on iOS and Android

Rage against the howling plague as a deaf prophetess in Howl, a visually stunning turn-based title from Astragon Entertainment and Mi'pu'mi. In this folktale world where to hear means to be cursed, you'll have to battle wolfish monstrosities coming at you from all sides to save the townsfolk and look for your lost brother in the process.

In Howl, you can look forward to unleashing your inner tactician as you plan your moves up to six steps ahead. Foreseeing your enemies' moves is the name of the game here, and when you're a prophetess walking the path of other prophets before you, you can take advantage of these moves or face certain death at the claws of your assailants.

There are 60 levels to clear and four chapters to discover, along with plenty of skills you can unlock to equip you better against the wolves at the door. All these are presented with lovely hand-drawn visuals that offer a "living ink" experience, adding a tragically beautiful charm to the narrative where an acoustic plague is transforming people into beasts.

If all that sounds intriguing to you, you can download Howl on iOS and Android and give the free demo a go. The full game will set you back by $3.99 a pop or your local equivalent.
