Tattered scroll 123 - Trying out Castle of Alchemists and Lacuna!
0For the second part of our spooky celebrations I bring you the wacky antics of a mutant knight trying to protect his castle from invaders in Castle of Alchemists!
The arcade-y feel of this one fits well with old tower defense games I've played in the past, but one of the things I really love in this style of TD is being able to define your opponents' path. If you've played old Starcraft TD maps from back in the day, you might be familiar with this mechanic as an old standard, and I really do miss it honestly. Some of my favorite co-op experiences on Starcraft were tower defense maps where it really did take 6 active players to clear a map's levels (I'm looking at you, Tarpit Defence)
We turn away from tactical mayhem after the demo finishes, and move on to something I actually picked up the full license for, Lacuna
After having played through Read Only Memories I've been looking for another good pixel story like it, and Lacuna might be the next story I try to finish. It's a noir investigation about the fallout after a leader of a space colony is assassinated told from the perspective of a detective working for the colonial government in a not-too-distant future. The storytelling is a decent midpoint between show and tell, where they're not afraid to go in depth in text where necessary but it's not going to hit you with a book every single scene.
Our main character is voice acted, somewhat, and I'm interested to see where things go after the first chapter, stay tuned for more, because I'll be pulling this one out again soon.
