Glu's Hercules: The Official Game launches on iOS, Android

Glu Mobile has announced the launch of Hercules: The Official Game on iOS and Android devices. The game is based on the upcoming Hercules theatrical film, set to hit theaters on July 25, 2014.

In Hercules: The Official Game, players complete battles against a variety of enemies, using their reflexes and swiping / tapping controls to perform combos and special attacks. In each battle, players are told to defend and swipe on the screen in specific directions, represented by pale arrows on the screen, in order for their hero to draw his shield.

When the enemy’s attack period is over, players rapidly swipe on the screen in any direction to attack.
