Hey Poor Player's Kenny McKee writes - "Video games set in the fantasy genre will always be popular, although it’s a bit difficult to say why at this point. It seems as though, despite the fact that everything has pretty much already been done in terms of realms containing Elves, Dwarves, and other, varying, types of Kin, gamers (including myself) never have much of a problem jumping into fantasy over and over. The Early Access build of the rogue-like PC adventure Overfall was my latest fantasy foray, and as I began my excursion I crossed my fingers in the hopes that the fantasy genre would once again not fail to entertain."
Overfall is a turn-based RPG that takes place in a fantasy realm filled with adventure and wonder. The combination of high-quality combat, artwork, and music are sure to capture the hearts of those dedicated to the genre.
WGTC writes: Overfall successfully mixes some unlikely genres to create a fulfilling experience.
Playing Overfall is equal parts addictive and emotional. Gameplay is one part strategy and two parts luck, relying heavily on random events ranging from power-appropriate quests, potentially crippling handicap attributes, consumption of limited food to heal your otherwise permanently bloodied team, and a constantly growing swarm of Nordic, dimension-traveling pillagers, the Vorn.
I'm glad roguelikes are coming back in style.
