What Makes Gigapocalypse Stand Out
Become a customizable giant monster with manifold skills in this destruction game, inspired by classical Kaijū movies such as “Godzilla” and “King Kong” and the game classic “Rampage”.
As a little kid, picking up your dragon toys, spewing fire, feels powerful and destroying everything is one of the best childhood memories for many of us.
Now you become that giant monster in Gigapocalypse, a 2D pixel art destruction game, inspired by classical Kaijū movies such as “Godzilla” and “King Kong” and the game classic “Rampage”.
Gigapocalypse features a selection of different “Gigas” from the Prehistoric era, the uncharted outer space and the forgotten history. Each with unique skills, mutations and manifold skins that can be unlocked with level ups.
Start your destruction spree and destroy everything on your way through different beautifully detailed pixel style locations. Ever wondered how it looks like when a giant monster destroys a wild west town? Or clashing against the brave Knights Templar? Gigapocalypse has the answer. But beware: Nasty soldiers, wizards, drones and mechs will do everything to stop you!
With each try your Giga will become more powerful until you will finally make it to the diversified, epic boss fights that await you at the end of each level.
Complete quests, take care of your Giga in Tamagotchi-style mini games, find secrets to upgrade your Giga and its “home” and unlock cute, but yet lethal pets that accompany you on journey.
Gigapocalypse is loud, punk, metal, anarchy and a lovely homage to the game and movie classics. It´s a game for the kid in all of us.
Features:
• Nine Gigas with unique distinctive abilities
• Six beautifully detailed stages based on earth`s historical and future timeline
• Customize your Giga and define your own destruction style
• Themed enemies and buildings
• Epic and hilarious boss fights
• Unlockable pets, skills and mutations
• Quests and secrets
• Fast paced action with simple controls
• Satisfying visual destruction in cute pixel art style
• Lore based on existing myths and cryptozoology
• Easy to approach, addictive gameplay style
• Heavy-Rock soundtrack – if it´s too loud, you´re too old!
This Casual game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
Seriously we were so addicted to this game once we got it. It deserves all the attention the App Store can give it. Its very rare you see a passionate game on the App Store (and Ive played hundreds of them and most of them are cash grabby and generic). We recommend you support this game so the developer will be motivated to make a sequel or keep working on games. Seriously kudos. We would do anything for a Gigapocalypse 2 right now.
U can customize with outfits and upgrade your skills and feed and morph your bb monster into a special beast of your choice. Plenty of hours of gameplay here! Fun to destroy everything in your path too. This is a side scroller btw, also it has 0 micros, no ads, and it has cloud save support too. Totally pick this game up. $1.99 is a steal! U will also be supporting devs that choose to not do p2w micro mechanics. 5 s.
This game makes us imagine a world where mobile gaming is actually fun and doesnt consist of being pummeled with ads and micro transactions. If the devs make a sequel, we will make sure that all of our friends get it as well.
We dont usually review games but this ones a real gem. Gives you that satisfying destroy everything in your path with a huge monster feeling, with tons of upgrades for the monster of your choosing.
Thanks so much to the developer for this game. Its just awesome. We love rampaging through the cities destroying everything. Plus you have multiple options to upgrade your monsters. If you enjoy a good time, we highly recommend this title.
Hi. We really like this game and we hope it gets more attention. So far our favorite Giga is Nebular shrinking down buildings and shooting high speed chunks of rocks. We also think there should be more to the story and lore about some of these Gigas. Please keep updating and thanks for the game.
We are having an absolute blast playing this game. Perfect for mobile devices. Totally worth the low asking price! The monsters look super cool, and there is a surprising amount of depth! Its like a Rampage RPG.
We were looking for a rampage like game your game is not rampage wish we could get our money back.
