How to Play Pond Story

Pond Story is an online web browser arcade adventure game in which the player is tasked with saving his friend from a dangerous foe in-game. The game is set in a retro-style open-world stage where you will encounter several dangerous creatures and obstacles along the way which you must overcome while in pursuit of saving your friend.

This game brings a nostalgic feeling to a modern web browser game since the game’s open world resembles the interface of some of the most renowned arcade platformer games of the 80s and 90s (e.g. Super Mario Bros).

So, are you brave enough to overcome all the obstacles and challenges on your way to save your best friend from a dangerous entity? Well, there is only one way to find out – let us play the Pond Story right away!

Earning XP & Leveling Up

XP points are offered in the form of gold coins in this web browser arcade adventure game. These gold coins help upgrade your attacking capabilities in the game. So, you need to kill every creature that comes your way as they offer gold coins.  So, as you continue further and further in the game, the obstacles and creatures will become increasingly difficult, which indicates the in-game level being raised continuously.

Playing Environment

This game has remarkably simple gameplay dynamics, and the players will not be bothered by too many options. There is an in-game shop option, a start button, sound on/off, and an ad-sponsored option to increase the gold coins.

Apart from these, the game offers a third-person view on an in-game screen dimension of 1280x720. Additionally, this exciting web browser arcade platformer game offers landscape orientation and is also supported to play on mobile phone browsers.

Graphics

The graphical interface of the Pond Story is its real hallmark. Players will enjoy precision 2D graphics on a retro-style pixelated interface that quite resembles the 80s and 90s arcade platformers.   The overall gameplay graphics are quite smooth, and the elemental design is also seamless in the game.

Customization

There is no customization available in this game.

Weapons & Health

The players will have two basic weapons at their disposal: keys and boomerangs. However, the weapons have limited quantity, so you need to wisely use your bullets to kill off enemies to not exhaust them all at once.

As for the health, the health bar is visible in a unique way, in the shape of the character in-game itself, located on the top left side of the screen. So, whenever you get hit by an enemy’s strike, you will see the one shape go empty off its color, and when all becomes colorless, your character will die.

Multiplayer

This online HTML5 arcade adventure game is a solo IO title. There is no multiplayer mode available in Pond Story. So, the players can play this game solo without any worry of competition from another player.
