Cute witches shooting equally cute foes is what you get with Flying Girl. This smartphone shoot’em’up features a cast of magical witches and foes that wouldn’t look out of place in Maple Story, but maybe with a little bit of a Deathsmiles type feeling.
(Flying Girl is part of Kakao’s lineup. Kakao’s a chat app like WhatsApp or Line which you then use to sign in to the game)
 
Players can befriend different sorts of pets who fly alongside you in combat such as gingerbread men, ghosts and stars. These pets offer different sorts of special bonuses and attacks for the witches three—Avis, Anna and Moly. You’ll enlist their help while trying to gun down foes like ghosts or floating slimes. Interestingly, you can play Flying Girl with either right or left-hand modes.
 
The three girls can also transform. Called “Dress Up”, it temporarily turns your cuddly witch into an all grown-up beauty with a magical beatdown stick. It even has a transformation sequence like Sailor Moon or Akazukin Cha Cha.
Flying Girl is out now on iOS and Android. You’ll need Kakao to play it as well.
