Duskers, an Indie sci-fi 'rogue-like' strategy game from Misfits Attic has now left Early Access. This is my review of the game after having spent a week and some 5 hours with it.
I was sent a key to Darkest Dungeon by the developer as I was itching to give it a go. I've been playing quite a bit of it and found out just how brutal it is.
Duskers is the really rather slick exploration, strategy and roguelike mix that has a seriously cool graphical style. Linux is now officially supported and it's leaving Early Access this month.
I checked out Battlestation: Harbinger a while ago and thought it was a great idea for a space exploration game. The good news is that it's now DRM free on GOG with Linux support.
Duskers is the rather unique strategy and survival game in procedurally generated worlds. You pilot drones into spaceships and figure out what's going on.
EVERSPACE is an incredibly beautiful looking 3D space shooter that takes elements from roguelikes that was funded on Kickstarter. They smashed their funding goal, and it's heading to Linux now too.
I've been testing out a little bit of the fantastically named Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space today, and here's some thoughts. It came to Linux last month, but probably went under most gamers radar as it didn't go in the new releases section.
Oh yes! Darkest Dungeon is now an instant buy for many I'm sure as it has arrived on Linux in Beta form. Lots of people have been waiting for this gothic roguelike turn-based RPG.
Blacksea Odyssey, a top-down rogue-lite space shoot ‘em up is now available in Steam's Early Access. You fight off massive creatures as you seek glory with your harpoons.
I had a chance to take a look at Overfall, a very interesting mix of rogue-like exploration, RPG and strategy mechanics wrapped up in a funny looking shell.
I've been having a bit of fun with Battlestation: Harbinger for the last few days, and I've actually found it to be a pretty good mix of mix of roguelike, action, strategy and more.
Roguelikes have a tendency to be really complex games with tons of depth and thick user manuals. Sproggiwood is a game that tries to do away with the complexity but still offer an enjoyable roguelike experience. Let's check it out!
