Guide to Nimble Quest for iOS: Tips, tricks, hints, cheats and strategies

From the maker of the original tower game Tiny Tower, and the worldwide airport manager simulator Pocket Planes, comes Nimble Quest. Nimble Quest has a much different concept than the other two, and one that goes back to the original days of cell phone games. It takes the gameplay of Snake from the old school black and white Nokia phone days and brings the style of gameplay into a medieval world, leading you from stage to stage and putting you up against random enemy monsters, goblins, knights and other enemies. Read on for some tips and tricks for Nimble Quest!

The character that you start off with can be one of the most important factors in Nimble Quest, due to the wide variance in attacks that different characters can do. Your best bet would be to go into battle with a lead character with a long projectile attack that explodes in all directions once it hits the enemy target.

Once you start to get a huge team of characters, it becomes more and more of a chore to get then to move the way you want them to without running into yourself or into walls, enemies or shots fired by some other character. At this point keep the front of your cast safer and safer from enemies and fire because he will be more easily destroyed, and when he is destroyed the entire team is destroyed automatically.

Maximize on your gems while you play, so that you can buy more power ups between stages. Go for the blue gems first over the green gems, and when you go to the store upgrade the duration of time that the magnets last, as well as the amount of gems that appear every time that you open a treasure chest.

Every single time that you go to the store menu in between games, if you can afford to power something up, power it up. Power ups fall so frequently in each stage that you are bound to notice that each stage becomes easier and easier as you go and as you continue to upgrade.
