Shards of War is an intense, fast-paced combat MOBA with WASD controls for tight manoeuvrability, shiny visuals and a cool dystopian Sci-fi setting.
As with most MOBAs, the rules are simple: Two teams of five players attempting to destroy the enemy base, fighting enemy drones, turrets and warriors over short 20 minute rounds. The big difference here is the WASD control scheme, which allows for more intense battles, with fast paced battles more akin to a shooter than a MOBA.
With Shards of War ditching the traditional fantasy setting for Sci-fi, short matches and the WASD control scheme, it feels like a welcome breath of fresh air in a rapidly stagnating and overpopulated genre. It’s a fun shooter/MOBA hybrid – a SMOBA if you will.
