Bring back Tango Chase and remaster as Tango Chase Reswinged soon
The Issue
Do you remember Tango Chase from 2012? A free-to-play mobile game for kids which is used to be free on the App Store but its gone, most likely discontinued and removed from modern iOS storefronts.
- You know the story: Tango Chase was a free iOS game released in 2012 on the iTunes App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch developed by British studio Full Moon Game Studios Ltd., also associated with American company Herotainment, the same company who made the critically acclaimed Herotopia, a kid-friendly MMORPG game.
- About Tango Chase: Herotopia’s popular primate Tango star in this arcade adventure game in his first lead role and save his simian sweetheart from an infamous supervillain named Ricky Wright. The greedy Ricky Wright, member of the Bully Bunch, kidnaps Tango's simian sweetheart and it's up to Tango to save the day. In Tango Chase, players can tilt, swipe and swing their way through this action-based arcade game through a vibrant world of snake-ridden jungles, cursed ancient ruins, journey under the sea and more! Tango Chase presents over 70 levels of addictive, challenging gameplay. The gameplay is similar to a reverse Donkey Kong except where players slide down vines to collect items like jewels and bananas rather than climbing up and jumping over barrels like Mario, across 70 challenging levels. The game is fun and entertaining and provides a challenge without becoming frustrating for kids.
- What Happened? Tango Chase was unfortunately removed from the App Store typically around 2017. Unlike most other mobile games that shut down, there is no official statement from Herotainment just like Herotopia, which also taken offline both the game and community and fan hub between 2017 and 2019 and there has been no official statement either. It was most likely due to a number of issues like either, outdated technology, Apple's policy changes phasing out old apps (especially 32-bit ones before iOS 11), or Herotainment ceasing support, making Tango Chase unplayable. Kids were crying that the game was removed from the App Store, coinciding with major iOS updates like iOS 11 and iOS 12 that dropped support for older 32-bit apps making them too old/unsupported and unavailable. Herotainment likely didn't issue a statement due to these are routine cleanups by Apple, and developers often don't receive personalized notifications for older, less-popular titles being removed. In essence: Tango Chase fell victim to Apple's automated app store maintenance, a common fate for games from that era not kept current, with Herotainment (if still active) not needing or choosing to announce its removal.
Legacy: Kids and older legacy fans, both Herotopia and Tango Chase fans were disappointing that they want to bring back Tango Chase and remaster as a remastered version titled Tango Chase Reswinged, a remastered version of the 2012 mobile game. Tango Chase Reswinged will be a remastered version of the 2012 mobile game, it will be an improvement with new and improved features not present in the original game such as two new features like "Challenge Mode" and a 2-4 player multiplayer mode (Wi-Fi and online play). Plus unlockable characters like Tango's sweetheart and Herotopia Reborn characters which are only available in both Challenge Mode and multiplayer and not available in Story Mode, in which the Story Mode that you can play as Tango.
The game will feature:
- Improved multi-directional tilt controls
- New and improved retina graphics
- Improved dangerous obstacles and creatures to dash, dodge and bounce
- Improved 70 levels of adventurous gameplay to challenge your skills and quick reflexes
- Improved coins and rare gems to unlock improved super power-ups and upgrades from the shop, like the addition of invincibility and costumes
- Improved Global Leaderboards and Achievements to earn
- Share with friends on Facebook, X, TikTok, Snapchat and Instagram for improved in-game bonuses
- New Challenge Mode where you can dash, dodge and bounce to evade dangerous obstacles and creatures endlessly
- New four-player multiplayer mode via Wi-Fi or online across the globe
- Unlockable characters (including Tango's sweetheart and Herotopia Reborn characters) in both "Challenge Mode" and "Multiplayer" to unlock by completing 70 levels. Compatible with Herotopia Reborn
Tango Chase Reswinged is swinging back soon to iOS and Android devices and we are so much happy to bring back the 2012 mobile game.
