Ravenswatch<\/strong> from Developer Passtech Games<\/strong> and Publisher Nacon i<\/strong>s an Early-Access title available on Steam that builds upon the successes of Passtech\u2019s previous hit title, Curse of the Dead Gods.<\/p>\n

This time around Passtech Games have opted to focus on a game that can be played both solo or co-operatively with up to 4 players. Players will choose from 1 of 4 different characters and be thrust into a world filled with monsters to defeat. Hacking and slashing awaits.<\/p>\n

Nightmares are spreading within the world of Reverie and you\u2019re tasked with taking them out. As time passes in the world though, a day night cycle occurs and this affects not only the monsters at large but your characters too. For example, one of the characters can transform into a werewolf when nighttime occurs. Each of the characters play quite differently and you\u2019ll have to get used to each of their unique abilities by giving them all a try.<\/p>\n

Ravenswatch<\/strong> is a roguelite at its core and as such, you will die. A lot. Players shouldn\u2019t be discouraged though because as you defeat enemies and rack up experience points, you\u2019ll be able to slowly upgrade your characters with new perks and abilities which make taking on tougher foes a lot easier.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

At the start of the game, you\u2019ll be quite weak and if you\u2019re playing co-op, you\u2019ll have to really work together with your teammates to take down the tougher armoured foes out there. You definitely should not rush straight into boss fights but rather, should be exploring the map looking for smaller fry to pick off and for items so you can upgrade yourself.<\/p>\n

Survive long enough out in the world, gain enough power and you\u2019ll be able to take on a tentacled boss enemy nightmare. This boss fight is quite challenging though so you\u2019d best be prepared before attempting to defeat it.<\/p>\n

Since this is an Early-Access title, the content in the game right now is quite lacking but over time, more will be added and this is already shaping up to be a solid game. All the core features already seem to be in place and the game is rather polished already. Yes it\u2019s lacking content right now but what we have available is still extremely enjoyable and extremely polished. The game runs smoothly and hasn\u2019t crashed at all \u2013 Which is a rarity in Early-Access games these days.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ravenswatch<\/strong> is a hack and slash action adventure roguelite that has a lot of potential. If you\u2019ve enjoyed games like Risk of Rain 2, Hades, Titan Quest and Diablo 3, this game will appeal to you. It\u2019s filled with a lot of good gameplay mechanics and it\u2019s most importantly, fun to play. Defeating enemies feels satisfying and while there isn\u2019t much available right now, what we do have is great and we can\u2019t wait to see more from Passtech Games over time.<\/p>\n

Definitely keep an eye on this title. It\u2019s going to be a hit when it\u2019s fully released.<\/p>\n
