Last night, Gameloft and Nokia held a press event at Nokia's flagship store in NYC to present Heroes: The Mobile Game. Heroes-Clues was invited, and we are excited to report the details:

View pictures and details of the event, as well as new screencaps of the game at this Flickr album.

In the game, the player takes turns playing Hiro, Niki and Peter, and can use their unique powers. Each character also has a different style of gaming. For example, Niki/Jessica's levels are the most typical fighting game levels, while Hiro's levels are more strategic. There are additional styles within the game -- I noticed one part that resembles Tetris.

Additional Heroes characters (I noticed at least Claire, Mohinder, Micah, and Sylar) also participate throughout the game. Included is a fight that I'm sure we have all wanted to see: Peter vs. Sylar

There are 11 levels within four locations: NY city streets, future-NYC, the museum, and Las Vegas. Each level takes about 5 minutes to complete, totaling in approximately 2 hours of playable game time.

*Attention spoiler junkies (don't worry, no spoilers here): As the game was written in collaboration with the show’s writers, the storyline follows Season One AND also includes some exclusive info about the show that will not show up until well into Season Two.

Again, see the Flickr album for screencaps, as well as details and photos from the event. A short video of the game being played (sound is from the event, not the game): Heroes: The Mobile Game will be released on October 5th in the US, and will be available for most handsets on all major carriers.

It should be fun!

Mobile games tend to be simple though. :/ I guess if your on the bus
or something you can waste some time.

Sounds pretty fun, but mobile games are never that good

Mobile Games have come a long way and having seen this product I think you would be pleasantly surprised at its graphics and game play. I wouldn't call some of the mobile games out there simple. Are they up to par in complexity with PC or the most modern consoles? Not yet, but they are better than many PS1 games and some are comparable to PS2. It wasn't that long ago that people were raving about PS2, given time the same thing will happen with mobile games.

Sooner than most people think.
