Fun Magic + Environmental Puzzles & A Dash of Dark Messiah! – Sorceress Demo –
Sorceress is an Indie, First Person Dungeon Crawler focusing on environmental puzzles, with a dash of Dark Messiah style combat.
Dark Messiah of Might and Magic like Combat:
The combat is very Hack and Slash, along with the return of the mighty boot!
You can kick the crap out of your foes, knocking them around the room, or off ledges to finish the fight.
Plus, wall spikes exist, so you can kick foes into spikes to finish them off with Dark Messiah style; fun!
You can even kick the weapons out of their hands once you kick em down, letting you snatch em up if you want what they got.
Environmental Puzzles & Bubbles:
While clearly influenced by it, Sorceress is not an RPG like Dark Messiah, sadly, it’s more of an environmental puzzle game with occasional combat, but it does have the bubblegun.
Yes, the bubblegun.
It’s very fun, literally firing off bubbles to envelop an enemy, kicking the bubble away, than freezing it solid while it floats overhead, sending them shattering into the ground.
Or freezing the bubble solid and kicking it into a foe; knocking them down, setting them up to be curb stomped by your mighty boot!
You also have the ice gauntlet, which can both freeze bubbles, and enemies directly, with 2 shots turning them into a short lived icecube, ready for you to crush.
You can also do the Dark Messiah ice trick of creating a sheet of ice to trip your foes; always fun.
The Dungeons are big, and are packed full of levers to pull, crates and barrels to bubble and float around, plus chains to climb Underworld Ascension style, so if environmental puzzles do it for you, you will likely really like Sorceress.
The castle lvl in particular is big; bright, and vibrant, making me want to play more.
Controller support is present, as is good old mouse and keyboard.
I found mouse and keyboard felt much better here, as is the case with most FPS games.
Note: This is an early look at Sorceress so any bugs or other oddness is not representative of the final product.
Still, Sorceress is an FPS Dungeon Crawler focusing on environmental puzzles with Dark Messiah style Hack and Slash combat that just feels fun to play, and is easily well worth a wishlist and a watch.
