Todak Studios showcased their upcoming mobile game, Mastra at LEVEL UP PLAY 2024. This innovative Mobile Online Battle Arena (MOBA) game, inspired by ancient Southeast Asian culture, is currently in its closed beta phase and preparing for an open beta launch.
At the heart of the Mastra experience at LEVEL UP PLAY 2024 is the game’s distinctive features. Attendees get to test the unique 2-lane map system, a departure from traditional 3-lane MOBAs. In addition, Mastra has an innovative Elemental Reaction System, which allows for creative power combinations, and the Chakra Vein System, which replaces conventional item purchases with direct stat upgrades.
Adjacent to the demo zone, an exhibition area provides deeper insights into Mastra’s rich lore. Additionally, display boards showcase the game’s heroes, their backstories, and the elemental forces that define their roles. Moreover, this section immerses LEVEL UP PLAY visitors in the game’s setting – a world inspired by 2nd to 7th-century Southeast Asian culture and history.
Mastra’s narrative revolves around the legendary Mahaguru Abadi, who developed the powerful Mantra Utama, granting him control over elemental powers. His tragic murder at the hands of his disciples led to the scattering of these powers across the kingdom, setting the stage for centuries of conflict and the eventual formation of Kataha.
The game introduces several innovative gameplay elements:
- Elemental Reaction System: Players can combine elemental powers to activate special effects, encouraging teamwork and strategic planning.
- Chakra Vein System: Instead of relying on traditional item systems and gold collection, Mastra allows players to directly upgrade stats.
- Simplified MOBA Mechanics: The game delivers an exciting 5v5 gameplay experience within a two-lane map and includes elemental reaction effects, boss and mercenary objectives, and protective gates for towers.
Each player controls a hero with unique skills and elemental powers that can synergize with teammates, creating dynamic, strategic gameplay. In addition, there is diverse roster of heroes, each with their own strengths and weaknesses.
Todak Studios aims to create a game that not only entertains but also celebrates local culture and promotes positive values. In addition, the studio’s commitment to excellence and sharing local heritage is evident in Mastra’s rich cultural backdrop and innovative gameplay mechanics.
Furthermore, pre-registration for the open beta is now available. Early registrants will have the opportunity to participate in the closed beta session and unlock special in-game rewards.
