There is no dearth to the types of entertainment one can try out in the lockdown period as everyone has learnt new things during this period but we shall focus on an interesting mobile game that came out only last year that has taken the entire western world by storm.

Now when it comes to mobile games, Candy crush saga, Clash of titans, Call of duty, Clash Royale, etc. immediately come to mind aside from the ones belonging to different genres and the credit goes to its makers for making such lively ventures and entertaining their audience.

Given their popularity, it is amazing how AFK Arena has carved out a niche for itself despite it being only a year since it came out and quickly became the talk of the town, especially in Western Europe where it became the most downloaded mobile game in the span of a month.

Brief Description

Now, certain people have been vehemently dismissive about AFK Arena as they feel that it is a typical action venture where there is blood and violence given the name and that too without bothering to do a research on it.

AFK Arena is a card game where you have two different teams fighting it out to achieve one-upmanship in the long run with some interesting heroes and grey shaded characters.

This is what makes a thrilling and unique story where you have characters that are neither completely good/virtuous nor completely bad/evil but are flawed beings with shades of good and bad in ample measure where the heroes are a shade more to the book.

The story takes place in Esperia where our heroes have to protect its inhabitants from the evil forces that are occupying the land to establish their dominance over the citizens, who are basically like a sheep reared by the butcher and that alone is enough to describe their plight.

Let us take a look at some important heroes in the story that have become popular in the virtual world of superheroes that can serve as an inspiration for youngsters to do something similar in real life.

Buyer’s Guide

The AFK Arena Guide is the perfect place to look for heroes and the one that tops the list is Brutus, an excellent leader that has inane skills to come out with ingenious plans on how to tackle the enemy lines, a testimony to his talent being able to achieve the level cap of 240.

He is followed by the sidekicks like Nemora that comes straight from the Labyrinth Store and is proficient enough to hold her own in battles on the basis of swiftness and agility rather than strength, leaving that part to Tasi, who is more into offensive mode rather than self defence.

Now we come to Lucius, who is called the think tank of the team with exceptional healing skills to care for injured warriors and is perfect for handling the backline of the team while his partner Seirus has to project the weak and worn out heroes to teleport them to the backend and keep the frontline going.
