Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) games used to be exclusive to PC, where the original DOTA game was made as a map for Warcraft III. However, the games became very popular, and they are now available on many platforms, including smartphones. Mobile Legends: Bang Bang is a prime example!
Familiar gameplay and map layout
The game is available for Android and iOS. It carries some similarities to League of Legends, and users can notice that some of the game's heroes have similar abilities or appearances to LoL's champions. Besides that, the map is the standard three-lane world with the river in the middle.Standard MOBA mechanics
You can see the same creeps, turrets and bases as in other MOBA games. There is the Lord spawning on the river, which, after being slain by your team, fights for you and pushes down a single lane. The maximum level is 15. You also don't need to go back to base in order to equip the items you buy during the game, and you have only three abilities to use and level up, along with one passive.Multiple game modes
There are many game modes besides the Classic match. You can play Rank, Brawl, VS AI, Custom, and Arcade. Among the Arcade rotations, past events like Survival stood out as being an interesting battle royale mode, where you and two other players landed anywhere on the map as a team and had to gather equipment and fight other players while the safe zone shrunk.Fair monetization and design
The game doesn't have pay-to-win elements, but you really have to save up to buy new heroes. Its design and graphics are great, and the main menu is easy to navigate.
