*Notice - BreakFree includes only voluntary ads granting you an uninterrupted immersive experience. Hello Players, welcome to BreakFree – Virus Shooter. The game’s focus is defeating a virus with weapons built with the capacity to overcome this invisible enemy. It’s an Endless Arcade, Action, and Casual Game that you can play at your leisure. As the player, you start your conquest to eliminate this new powerful enemy beginning in the year 2020. In the year 2019, a new type of virus has spawned into the world. Humanity does not know of its origins; it only knows it has one goal to wipe humanity out effectively. During the first year being 2019, the nations across the world merely watched this new virus surface. They lay complacent, given the enemy has arisen not in their territory but some other foreign nation. The virus quickly overwhelms this nation… The world is in utter shock at the sight of this development. The world leaders decide to come together regardless of their race, religion, or even political views to face this new enemy. You stand as the leader of the most powerful nation in the world, and other world leaders highly regard your voice, so you decide to take the lead in the discussion. With much talk of how to defeat this new enemy and who to lead the effort, the world leaders shake their heads as they’re ready to agree. The move the world has been waiting for has finally come... The world leaders have decided to elect YOU to lead this global effort to wipe this enemy from the face of the earth. Luck is on your side as weapons capable of destroying this invisible enemy have been created ahead of time, and now is the time to use them. The war has begun, the question is will you win? Before you download the game, I need to inform you of how the game plays before you play. We all know that the game starts in the year 2020, but the years progress by one every time the timer above your screen ends and resets itself. You get rewarded as the player by an increase of 10,000 points to your score (recovered) for surviving the enemy every year and get additional points added to your score by eliminating the viruses. As every year passes, the game will progressively get harder, and surprising events will happen at which year, you’ll find out. Luckily, as the player, you're receiving care packages from helicopters passing by that can give you an edge for your weapons. In order to use these weapons, you must have two thumbs on your phone and then the weapons will aim in the middle of your two thumbs. As the player, your ultimate goal is to keep the number of viruses from going above the 100 mark. If you hit the 100 mark it's game over… You’re competing with players across the globe to prevent this enemy from spreading and overrunning humanity; the question is, how long will you survive? The music for this game was created with a more dramatic tone and with elements of cyberpunk embedded in the songs. It suits the theme of the game but also creates a mood where the world is in an uncertain situation, but you’re winning the war and enjoying it as you're killing viruses. Try and survive for the entire length of the soundtrack to hear the remix version which is only available within the game! While trying to save the city from this virus, there will be achievements that can be unlocked along the way to remind you that there's more glory than just saving the city for the next generations to come. Some of these achievements include unlocking the swap feature which provides a choice of weapons with different looks and colors to destroy the viruses. If you lack the patience to unlock this feature though, then worry not as you can watch an ad to unlock this feature for one turn. Disclaimer : This game is a work of fiction.
