Can you stop the beating of the "Hearts of Death"?

Frankfurt am Main, Germany, 20th April 2007 - leading video game developer and publisher Fireglow Games TM , best known for its Sudden Strike® series, today reveals screenshots from the upcoming cutting edge blend of RPG and RTS, Stranger®, showing off some of the tactics used for overcoming extremely powerful machines, called the "Hearts of Death", which means players have to play on two maps simultaneously to overcome the enemy.

"Hearts of Death" - These powerful magic-driven machines blast units in a single shot and there is no easy way to overcome them. The screens (see link below) show that while the troops on the surface are blasted to pieces, the player's units in the underground find their way to a lever that stops the beating of the "Hearts of Death". Nevertheless: The way underground is not an easy one. Strong monster-hordes, called "Muneks", will hinder the player and require the use of a lot of resources and equipment to finally end the killing by the deadly machines.

Check out the new screenshots and see how to play on two maps!
