Major developer and publisher of mobile games Capcom Mobile has recently announced plans to publish “Herman The Hermit” platformer game on the Apple App Store.

Developed by VisualDreams, the game is centered on Herman, a crazy old hermit that lives high up in the Himalayan Mountains.

Players must take control of the crazy hermit, who, through years and years of meditation and training, has developed Ninja-like skills and the mindset of a mad man.

Herman the Hermit is a 2D platform jumper game which may seem easy to play, but will be definitely hard to master.

The gameplay may remember players of the more popular Super Mario games, as they will have to control Herman and jump from platform to platform in an almost endless loop.

We’re excited to be working with VisualDreams to bring their extraordinary game to the Apple App Store,” said Midori Yuasa, President and COO, Capcom Interactive, Inc.

Herman The Hermit wonderfully showcases what a small passionate developer can accomplish while fitting right at home within the larger Capcom library. We hope that this will be the first of many iOS co-publishing deals between Capcom Mobile and talented smartphone game developers,” added Yuasa.

Some of the key features of the game include:

- Bright and beautiful visuals;
- Addictive gameplay;
- A jumper game that is easy to play but still requires true skill to master;
- Herman, a crazy and lovable character. With Chuck Norris like skills and the mindset of a mad man Herman jumps between rocks to bring the world back to life;
- Endless and highscore based gameplay;
- Unique powerups that help Herman jump even further.

We have all been playing Capcom games since an early age and to work with Capcom is a dream come true. We can't wait to release Herman into the world,” Harald Johansson, Co-Founder, VisualDreams.

“Herman The Hermit” is expected to be available on the Apple App Store sometime in February for only $1.99.
