I.RULE APK

I.RULE is a fun casual strategy game that blends Plants vs. Zombies with horror elements. Players must collect hearts to plant different kinds of babies, defeat a constant stream of attackers, and earn tons of in-game rewards. The game features a dark yet beautifully detailed aesthetic. Players must use their limited hearts to plant babies and defeat stronger enemies. Strategy gamers can download the game here.

Gameplay: 

At its core, I.RULE takes heavy inspiration from legendary tower defense titles, where the objective is to protect the left side of the field from waves of oddball monsters. Rather than direct action or exploration, strategy lies in deploying a variety of units, each inspired by familiar Isaac characters and items. Players collect and manage resources to place defenders, each with their unique attack patterns and abilities, onto pre-set lanes as enemies approach from the right.

What sets I.RULE apart is its clever implementation of roguelike elements. Each run introduces a degree of unpredictability, as available units and upgrades can vary based on what is found or unlocked during play. Mini-bosses and randomized wave compositions ensure that no two rounds feel quite the same, amplifying replay value.

Strategies:

Collect hearts and buy babies to fight monsters. I mean, why not.

B. Bobbies shoot tears at enemies, Little C.H.A.Ds produce more hearts, Cubes of Meat can be used to protect other babies, and Bob's Brain used to deal with strong enemies and remove obstacles.

Using Space Bar you can speed up/slow down the game (just like in PvZ 2)

You can also use 1-4 keys to grab babies, Q key to grab a shovel and E key to grab an active item (without dragging your mouse around the screen every time)

Developer Notes:

This game is my tribute to Ed and George Fan, authors of Basement Collection and Plants vs. Zombies, whose game mechanics I tried to combine in this "crossover", if you can call it that. It's a roguelite where you fight monsters using babies with different abilities, based on familiars from The Binding of Isaac. Fight bosses, complete various challenges and craft the most effective strategy to win! And if you haven't played TBoI or Plants vs. Zombies yet, you should buy n play them right now.

Most of the sprites and effects were made by me, but I still used many assets from TBoI: Rebirth (for which, of course, I do not take credit) to give the game an authentic look. The game's also uses various OST written by Ridiculon (with the exception of the wonderful "Drowned Sorrows" track by Nicolas Mayer), as well as many sound effects from these games. Playing the game further you'll find some epic cameo-characters, referencing various mods and other members of the Isaac community.

The game is deep in alpha, which means that it's kinda playable, but it doesn't have much content yet. I still have a lot of ideas, so expect more content in later updates. 

Final Verdict:

I.RULE is a fan-made game released on a name your own price model, meaning players can contribute if they choose to, but it is essentially a free game for those who want it to be. It is a tower defense game based on the popular action RPG, The Binding of Isacc.Being a tower defense game, I.RULE has more in common with something similar to Plants vs. Zombies than it does with The Binding of Isacc. Still, it uses the art style and some assets from The Binding of Isacc.
