My Hero Academia: Smash Tap

My Hero Academia: Smash Tap (のヒーローアカデミア スマッシュタップ) was a mobile game developed by Bandai Namco that lets you chose heroes and fight villains with them by tapping your screen.

Gameplay
The core gameplay is set from an overhead perspective on small, maze-like maps based on various locations in the My Hero Academia series, each containing a variety of obstacles that players must encounter. Using a team of two heroes (a main one and a sidekick), players will engage in combat with villains, who must be defeated in order to progress. Conditions for each stage vary between three goals - defeat the boss, rescue civilians, or defeat a certain number of villains.

Summoning Banners
Characters are summoned with the use of Hero Souls, which are spent on various summoning banners. It costs five Hero souls to summon one character on a banner, or 50 in order to make a full summon of ten characters at once. The rarest units advertised on each banner often correspond with a certain theme (i.e. Class 1-A, a specific character, Smashfest, swimsuits, etc.). Some banners also had special conditions, such as the number of souls spent for each full summon increasing for a higher chance of pulling a rare unit, or having a fixed pool of units to summon from.

Items

 * Hero Coins: The main currency of the game. Used to buy Gadgets and other items. They can be obtained through gameplay, rewards or selling cards.


 * Hero Souls: The main currency of the game, and are mainly used to summon characters. They can also function in substitute of other items if there aren't any available to the player (e.g. taiyaki to replenish stamina, tickets for special in-game events, etc), or as a continue in the event that all players in a game are defeated. Hero Souls can be obtained through daily rewards, in-game quests, story mode, special events, or purchased in-game with real money. They were given as gifts for character birthdays, after in-game maintenance or updates, or when a new episode of the anime was premiering.
