BIONICLE: Mask of Control is a mobile game developed by Frima Studios and released by the LEGO Group on January 19, 2016 for Android and iOS devices. It was free to buy.
After Bionicle Generation 2 got canceled in the same year, the app is no longer available for download on app stores, but the app remains available if the user had previously downloaded it.
Plot
The six Uniters and their Elemental Creatures traverse through the Labyrinth of Control as they face challenges on their quest to retrieve the Mask of Control.
As the Toa and Elemental found the mask, Umarak, the Hunter, steals it and escapes with it. When he meets with Makuta's spirit in his lair, Umarak removes his mask, the Hunter Mask, and puts on the Mask of Control. The mask transforms him into the Destroyer.
In the game's summer update, the Toa fight the Destroyer and many enemies in the Labyrinth. After the Toa defeat the Destroyer, Ekimu appears and removes the Mask of Control from the Destroyer, completely defeating Umarak and making Ekimu and the Toa victorious.
Gameplay
Player can perform basic attacks by tapping the screen, along with combat moves depending on the direction prompt displayed (right for frontal, up for aerial, down for ground, left for ranged).
The Elemental Creature button can be tapped on to summon a creature, whose damage can be boosted by swiping repeatedly on the screen. Once the meter on the Elemental Creature button is charged, the player will cause the Toa to unite with their Elemental Creature into Unity Form.
Players can block attacks by pressing and holding the Block button and dodge ranged attacks by tapping the prompt on time. Counter-attack moves can be performed by tapping the prompt in time to dodge and swiping the prompt to counter-attack with basic attacks, then having the ability to swipe again to perform a power attack. Players can get back in the fight by tapping the prompt in time when given.
Clashes may occur between Toa and enemies, which can be won by tapping repeating on the screen. Spider Swarm and Shadow Traps may occur randomly, which prompts the player to Swipe and Tap respectively to free the Toa.
After winning battles, Crystal Shards are reward to the player to use to unlock skills.
When the game was released in the early half of 2016, the player can only control Tahu, Lewa, and Pohatu. When the game was updated with summer 2016 content on June 6, 2016, the player can also control Kopaka, Onua, and Gali. Also included in the update are 15 new levels and Umarak's Destroyer form, who is the true final boss in the game.
