Killer Queen's powers revolve around setting up different kinds of bombs that can annihilate Kira's enemies in one blast, making it a very dangerous Stand to face. Not only are the bombs powerful, but Kira is also able to deploy two initially, then eventually three kinds of bombs with different strengths, giving the serial-killer a large array of options when dealing with his foes.
Defend the queen, fill your hive with berries or ride the snail to victory. Curious what this all means? Come check out what all the hype is about. After playing this addictive 5 vs.5 indie game, you'll understand why we need two nights to pack in all the fun.
Killer Queen pits two five-player teams against each other. The gold and blue forces each start with four workers and a queen, who can fly and slay opposing players with her sword. Workers can collect nectar and return it to the base, upgrade to soldiers or ride the giant snail.
The original Killer Queen closely resembles the later arcade version. Like the video game, there are three ways to win: return a certain number of food pellets to your base, kill the opposing queen three times or bomb the other team's base (instead of riding a gastropod to your side, the third victory condition in the digital game).
Killer Queen is a popular five vs five arcade game (and successful esport) that came out of the wildly creative world of in-person field games. Interviewing Nik Mikros and Johs DeBonis of BumbleBear Games, we dived (not unlike a killer queen bee with a deadly sword) right into the challenges and intricacies of designing a game for chaotic live play.
