  • Official web page: Link
  • Genre: DRPG(Dungeon crawler)
  • Release date: June 2016
  • Story/Description:
    Quote:


    Prologue
    Spinning a story of gods and men, destiny and free-will.

    The passenger aircraft that you were riding on vanishes in an unexplained accident.
    The remains of the aircraft are never found, and there seems no chance for anyone to have survived.

    You awake to find yourself beneath a strange, starry sky.
    This is the place where sparkling butterflies dance, the Sword City of Escario.

    Residents of many races, terrible monsters, and unknown labyrinths fill this land.

    You must now become one of the Chosen Ones, and take up the mantle of--

    A Stranger of Sword City.






Thought I might as well make a thread since Steam release was just confirmed as June: http://nichegamer.com/2016/04/21/stranger-of-sword-city-heads-to-pc-in-june-2016/

Will be worth playing just for the AMAZING art.

Looks amazing, I really hope this turns out to be good Smile I've been aching for a good dungeon crawler.. though sadly we either get uber basic ones (like Grimrock) or uber complex (like Elminage Gothic). MMX was a good middle ground Smile

Wasn't there a thread already?

Those graphics and the GUI look very similar.

Nah, Stranger of Sword City was mentioned in one of the Steam-related threads but there wasn't a thread specifically for the game until now.

Yeah i think i would have really liked Grimrock if it was TB the RT Dungeon Master style combat unfortunately made it unplayable for me.

If you're into indie titles, you should check out Frayed Knights. That was a damned fun DRPG Smile

A dungeon crawler? * looks at the poster*.... what a shame Laughing

PS the lack of animation during battles is really disappointing...

Trust me those games are very tedious if fully animated i prefer my wizardry style crawlers like this or at least have a toggle for the animations.

I played enough of old games like this one..a basic animation of strikes\casting spells etc would be fine tbh

Great game probably the best blobber i played in ages the environments are a bit scarce looking but the fantastic 2d art (A art style option ofc^^) makes up for it combat is great, fast and challenging and even the story is pretty good although im not really used to a blobber even having a extensive story like this, in short i love it i sure hope we get more games like this.

Even if you don't have a controller plugged in, you still get gamepad prompts.. only they're classic dinput numbers and not xinput icons Sad

Someone said they got keyboard prompts by unplugging their pad, but it didn't work for me. I assume it has something to do with me using that "PS3 recognized as 360"-pad stuff.

Weirdly enough, I don't have my DS4 plugged in, still get the dinput prompts :\ Makes navigating menus a chore.

the main character can only be a human? Disappointing.. I mean. I started as a wizard and I could use a racial bonus to INT..

PS Graphics (when exploring dungeons etc in 3d) is so fugly...except for 2d monsters\characters..they are quite beautiful..

Have you even gotten past the tutorial?

You get to create a full party when you enter the city.
