All Will Fall – Demo Impressions

All Will Fall is a post-apocalyptic settlement builder in a world that looks like something out of the Kevin Costner film Waterworld. In other words: Humanity has suffered a civilization ending event due to increasing water levels, drowning all the Earth’s cities under the icy cold saltwater. As things go, mankind clings on as a pitiful group of survivors tries to make a new home in this wet and doomed world. And it’s here where you step in, having to guide these castaways in rebuilding an existence for the remaining population.

Dungeons & Dragons: Warriors of the Eternal Sun – Sunglasses Required

How about some 16-bit Mega Drive (Genesis in US) D&D? Dungeons & Dragons: Warriors of the Eternal Sun might not be a masterpiece, but it sure has charm! It was a very fascinating experience playing it, because I had no idea they even made D&D RPGs for the Mega Drive, and above all, not the blobber kind, with top-down turn-based combat and exploration (think Ultima 6).

Biohazard 4D-Executer (Resident Evil CGI Movie)

If you are ever in a mood for some true Resident Evil in movie format, look no further. Biohazard 4D-Executer is a masterpiece and is what the Hollywood movies fail to convey: tension and Resident Evil branded horror. It’s a movie produced by Capcom back in 2000, and it’s made entirely in juicy late 90s CGI. The original upload on YouTube is old, grainy, and has a bad aspect ratio, stretching the 4:3 format to 16:9 unnaturally. In other words, it looks bad on more than one front. So, I have linked an upscaled version down below, that’s actually in the correct format, making the viewing experience much better. Enjoy!

Pompeii: The Legacy – Playtest tomorrow!

Pompeii: The Legacy is a city-builder I have kept my eye out on for a couple of months, seeing as it looks like a very classic Roman city builder of old. What’s also cool is that it seems you will be forging a dynasty lasting for the ages while rebuilding Pompeii from the ashes. Certainly, an intriguing concept that fits the theme of the setting. This is made by a solo developer (Siscia Games) that made his own engine for this project. Utmost respect for that, as that is dedication. However, the gameplay remains to be tested, but if you sign up for the playtest, it will start tomorrow the 18th! Here is a sneak peek video down below, if you are curious what it looks like:

Crowned In Steel – Demo Impressions

The Conan simulator is here, or at least the demo. I would love to state that Crowned In Steel does a remarkable job at what it set out to do, but I had some minor problems with it. Which, to be fair, is probably a skill issue from my side. So, while it does a fine job looking, and feeling the part, the gameplay is a bit confusing to my old brain, and does not entirely sync with the combat.
