There are about 1,500 possible solutions for each puzzle, offering diversity. Scores are compiled on a single, team, and national basis, adding a competitive edge. Players can also form their teams.
Additionally, the game features a 'Lightning Match,' where multiple players compete on the same puzzle simultaneously. This mode is programmed to match players by country, and data is categorized by nation, displaying the results accordingly. The game can be accessed globally via Google Play Store on Android devices.
Namefan stated, "We are at the launch stage, and once a sufficient number of users in each country is reached, we will implement national ranking games. An Apple iOS version is also in development."
The '2024 PlayX4 B2B,' hosted by Gyeonggi Content Agency and KINTEX, is themed 'More Than Just the Joy of Gaming' and features exhibitions and experiences of new games from Korean and international game companies. Visitors can enjoy side programs like the retro game market, esports competitions, and cosplay events.
