Woolfe: The Red Hood Diaries is a cinematic fairy tale platformer for PC, full of drama and dark twists. Step into the boots of a vengeful Red Riding Hood. This game is a well-balanced cocktail of three successful gameplay ingredients: some good old-fashioned action platforming on a 2.5D playground, fun combo-based hack ‘n slash combat (against some pretty deranged fairy tale enemies) and rewarding environment puzzles (exploring the beautiful sceneries to the max).Set in an attractive fantasy universe and topped off with a surprising take on the Red Riding Hood tale as you know it, Woolfe promises an entertaining, aesthetic experience. This game concept from Grin has spawned many fan art - and they created a special Fan Art Contest blog page on their website

Call me nostalgic, old fashioned or retro.. I don't care. I have a weak spot for pixelated fanatsy games, Castlevania, Zelda, Metroid.. early Final Fantasy. I just lap it up. So when I saw the Heart Forth, Alica project on Kickstarter I knew this was my chance to play part in developing one of those (in my mind) epic games. "Heart Forth, Alicia".. ..is a '90s-inspired Metroidvania RPG about a young wizard on her journey to stop a Spirit from consuming her homeland.
At Heart Forth, Alicia's core is an ode to the classics. Remember the electrifying gameplay of Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, the expansive worlds of the Zelda games, and the rich, engaging story of Xenogears? This game is crafted in the spirit of those great adventures of the '90s. The story unfolds amidst the repercussions of centuries worth of struggle, strife, and bloodshed between cultures, races and worldviews. But above all else, it's an epic Metroidvania RPG that combines timeless 16- and 32-bit gameplay, modern mechanics, and a set of unique, intertwining stories to take you on a fantastic journey A digital card and board game of heroes and high-adventure set in the fairy-tale animal kingdom of Armello!As computer and video games go; this game 'Armello' is awesome! - You get to play animal human hybrids in a medieval setting. I saw this project on kickstarter and just had to back it, because I want to play it, so bad! The King, once Armello's wise and benevolent ruler, has fallen ill to a dark and mysterious force known only as the Rot. Slowly eating his body and soul, the Rot twists him deeper and deeper into madness. In response, Armello's Great Clans have called forth their Heroes to claim the throne of Armello; and this is where you start your adventure, Hero As a 'Hero' from one of the Great Clans of Armello, you'll quest, scheme, explore, vanquish monsters, perform the Mad King's royal edicts and face off against other players with one ultimate end goal in mind — storming the palace and becoming king or queen of Armello! There's no boring down time in Armello. After you hit the 'End Turn' button you'll be busy equipping items, recruiting followers and purchasing talents in your hero's unique talent tree. Maybe you're playing cards to the board as Perils for other heroes to stumble into or perhaps you're playing cards to strike up temporary allegiances... they're always temporary.

I am always a bit of a sucker for RPG Video Games. Show me some nice characters, a decent story and a cool way to 'Level Up' and you got me hooked. In this instance - Snow Castle Games got me investing in their Kickstarter. They have released an early draft demo which you can download (Windows) On Umbra, a planet that mysteriously stopped spinning ages ago, war is brewing. As desert scavenger Amon, you must stop the coming war by unlocking the mysteries of Umbra and prevent an ancient, magical cult seizing the power. You start off as Amon, an audacious scavenger from a small desert town, who gets embroiled in a treacherous conflict between the mighty Suvian Empire and those who want to bring Suvia down. “Earthlock: Festival of Magic is shaping up to be a heavy hitter in the RPG community. It features a compelling story to explore, fascinating gameplay mechanics and wonderfully rendered visuals.” - Hardcore Gamer
I like role-playing, I like video games, I like classic Roque power up and I mostly play big video games by myself. I found this game when using these words as a search criteria in Kickstarter. In short this is a game made for me. Realistic single-player RPG set in the medieval Europe. Open-world sandbox with period accurate melee combat. Dungeons & no Dragons. Kingdom Come has its own website Kingdom Come is a first-person, open world, realistic RPG that will take you to Medieval Europe in a time of great upheaval and strife. A humble, young blacksmith loses everything to war. As he tries to fulfill the dying wish of his father, Fate drags him into the thick of a conspiracy to save a kidnapped king and stop a bloody conflict. You will wander the world, fighting as a knight, lurking in the shadows as a rogue, or using the bard’s charm to persuade people to your cause. You will not find any dragons, half-naked Elven warriors, or wizards in Kingdom Come: Deliverance. At no point will you have to collect seven pieces of a legendary magic staff to defeat an ancient evil bent on destroying the world with an army of demons.
Hand of Fate brings card gaming to video game life. An infinitely replayable series of quests; build your deck, then try to defeat the game's characters! A sublime blend of tabletop card gaming and video game magic, inspired by tarot and fantasy, developed by Defiant Development in Brisbane, Australia Hand of Fate is a card based roguelike, in which the player builds a collection of cards into a deck, which is then used to deal out the dungeon floors through which they adventure. Upon entering a combat, all of the cards the player has collected fly into their character's hands as fully modeled 3D assets, and combat begins. A new action platform RPG, inspired by all the people the heroes always ended up screwing over. Stupid heroes...
(link) When was the last time you played a game, any game really, where you walked into someone's home, nonchalantly opened drawers, cabinets, picked locks, upturned a bed and talked to the freaking homeowner in hopes of finding something you could loot? Oh, right before this game? Yeah I thought so. Aside from more humble games like Skyrim, where you had to steal items instead of taking them, every game that has item management lets you play the bad guy without being the bad guy.Let me tell you something: NPCs hate your guts, they just can't say it to your face! Just cleared a forest of roving bandits? Well they were the only ones keeping a population of meerkats in check. The local farms can't keep them at bay and you've just triggered the worst national food shortage in the past decade. Good job, hero! I think it's time for some payback. |
