Japanese developer Asakusa Studios is bringing the dungeon crawler to Steam this winter.
Hyakki Castle sets classic party-based dungeon crawling inward an Edo menstruum castle, pitting grapheme classes such every bit Samurai in addition to Ninja against "vivid monsters in addition to supernatural creatures from Japanese literature." Based on the trailer above, I intend it's fair to seat it every bit something similar a Japanese Legend of Grimrock—that beingness the best in addition to close recent first-person dungeon crawling serial I tin intend of.
Outside of the theme, the close key departure inward Hyakki, at to the lowest degree every bit far every bit nosotros tin come across from the trailer, is that your political party tin endure dissever into 2 groups (2-2 or 3-1) in addition to sent off to job dissimilar things, or laid on enemies from dissimilar positions. "For instance, i grapheme tin lure a monster spell the other iii lay inward hold off for an ambush," reads the press release, "or the political party tin dissever to flank a monster or to solve a puzzle."
Party splitting is a new idea, in addition to I'm excited to come across what form of puzzles the organization makes possible, though I job wonder how the complexity volition couplet amongst a genre already steeped inward it. Developer Asakusa Studios—which is based inward Asakusa, Japan, naturally—and publisher Happinet are bringing Hyakki Castle to Steam this winter, in addition to hence we'll endure able to grade it a become inward curt order.
Thanks PC GAMER
