Who doesn't love a good dungeon crawling adventure?


22. Nox

Sometimes oldies are goodies for a reason. The gameplay varies depending on which character class is picked for Jack at the start of the game. For example, warriors can use pretty much all armor and melee weapons but can’t use bows, staves, or any magic and use special abilities that act as spells, but simply recharge over time.

The gear in the game varies, even though it’s restricted to certain classes, and can have enchantments. Weapons also have durability, so you better make sure you have a backup if you’re in the middle of town and can’t pop over to the nearest blacksmith for a repair.

Looking a little pixelated there.

Expert warrior, eh?

21. Bastion

Aside from the art style the most unique and individual piece of Bastion is the narration. That doesn’t have anything to do with dungeon crawling, true, but having a very relaxing, deep voice comment on almost everything you do it deserves a shout out. The levels and enemies in Bastion are gorgeous (sometimes scary) and varied.

A hub world, the Bastion, is where the player can buy materials and upgrade weapons, and also add structures to the bastion depending on what playstyle you’re after. There’s also a new game plus+ mode for those of you who want to replay with a couple extra things added.

But I don't wanna kill it; it's so cute!

I don't know where I am but I like it.

20. Eitr

EITR - Gameplay

Eitr (named for a mythical substance in Norse mythology) doesn’t have an official release date yet but I can assure you I’ll be all over it once it does. Eitr is a pixel art isometric action RPG set in the world of Norse Mythology. Combat is toted to be “exceptional” with a variety of weapons, strategic movement, accurate arrow strikes and special attacks.

There’s plenty of loot to be had as well, but the caveat is that some of it may be damaged if the brave heroine is killed in combat. It’s nice to see something a bit different in this genre and I’ll be keeping an eye on this game as the year progresses.

That lighting though.

Surely we can work something out?
