At the end of April 2000, Huayi International purchased the agency rights of "Stone Age" from Japan's JSS Company. After commercial promotion by Taiwan's popular singer Tao Liping, it immediately became an explosive online game sweeping Hong Kong and Taiwan. A year later, "Stone Age" was distributed on the mainland in 2001 by Beijing Huayi, and achieved very good results. Since then, there has been a wave of agency foreign online games on the mainland. And just today, after 19 years, the only official official mobile game "Stone Age M" officially debuted on Apple.

As the originator of domestic online games, although "Stone Age" has brought a lot of income to Huayi International, it also exposed many problems. For example, the copyright dispute of "Stone Age" directly caused Huayi International to lose this golden sign and turn it over to DigiPark. Before online games were introduced to the mainland, Huayi International thought that domestic players would abide by the rules like Japanese players. However, due to various loopholes in the operation of "Stone Age", problems such as plug-ins, server suspension, server crashes, etc. were flooded and lost. A large number of players.

And today, when the MMORPG end game is declining, "Stone Age" has gone through large and small "toss", and its popularity and popularity are difficult to match. Popular end games are comparable. The emergence of "Stone Age M" conforms to the current general trend of "short, flat and fast" gaming experience. At the same time, this is also one of the opportunities to wave to the new generation of players and revive the old IP.

"Stone Age" has been using classic 2D graphics since the first generation, but now with the strong support of technology, many classic end games have been fully 3D, and "Stone Age" still has no action.

Multiple capture methods


A cute new pet was caught!

Although we can capture cute pets at will in the game, only five of them are allowed to enter the battle in each PVE battle, which means you need to have a deep understanding of the pet battle system. The battle system of "Stone Age M" is still the traditional turn-based system, but the pet configuration and skill pre-reading of each match test the players' minds very much.

Formation arrangement is very important

The arrangement of the formation is mainly determined by the pet's attributes and skills. For example, some pets have very good defense attributes, so put them in The front row, combined with injury reduction skills, can effectively protect the output position. However, each pet still has a relationship of attribute restraint. Even if your pet in the front row has the best defensive attribute, it is very likely that the extra damage given by attribute restraint will be lost in one round, which is a test of the player’s skill prediction and formation. Understanding of configuration.

The attributes and skills of each pet are very different.

In most cases, the conventional "Warfare and Animal Husbandry" formation is sufficient to deal with every field in the PVE mode Fighting, but in PVP mode, lineup adjustment and skill pre-reading will become extremely important. When you know the battle mode of the game well, but have been defeated by the same opponent several times in a row, you may want to consider the cultivation of pet runes and weaponry

There are nearly 300 kinds of pets in "Stone Age M", and diversified combinations can bring different strategic combinations. The five pets in each battle are also related to positioning restraint and attribute restraint. All kinds of collocations can also make unpopular pets play huge energy. Fighting is often full of unpredictability. Even if the PVP battle does not last to the end, it is difficult to know who wins and loses. If you are familiar with the combat mechanism, you will have a better combat experience.

Very strategic combat experience

The built-in hook system of "Stone Age M" also allows you to gain a lot of experience and excellent equipment during busy hours. It is in line with the pace of life of today's players.

The on-hook system originated from the early "features" of the "Stone Age" terminal game

The social system of this game has been enhanced to a certain extent. In addition to the regular family (guild) system, The game also adds interactive content such as mentoring and love, aiming to give players more opportunities to communicate in their beloved virtual world. You may think that players may only care about their pets and combat power values, but in some plot battles, teaming up with other players is very necessary.

The social system has more ways to play than before.

In addition, there are many end-game IP emotional eggs in the game, such as classic reincarnation tasks, special riding pet functions, long Mammoth buses and Canada American Airlines, etc., these are enough to make the old players shed tears. Nowadays, MMO mobile games that use touch-screen mobile operations are becoming scarce, and more and more manufacturers like to configure joystick displacement, and "Stone Age M" uses it as a way of moving characters, which actually includes respect for old players. .
