CRYPTMASTER REVIEW

I was given a PS5 code from Publisher Akupara Games @akuparagames @HAMM1ESHAMLET Developer Paul Hart Lee Williams @wiwyums @Farmergnome

This is released in the UK on the 03/10/2024 and in the UK is priced at £18.99.

INTRODUCTION

Say, Type as words are power in this dungeon adventure.

FEATURES

  • Say Anything You Want: Interact with the world and conquer quests by typing or speaking any word you can think of – each encounter has multiple solutions to discover!
  • A Weird, Wild World: Travel through mysterious underground kingdoms and meet talking doors, flirtatious toads, sarcastic ghouls, and more.
  • Use Your Words: Dungeon battles are fueled by words – decipher forgotten spells, then type their names in battle to unleash the might of your undead heroes.
  • Endlessly Evolving Gameplay: You’ll constantly encounter new gameplay mechanics – from creature collecting, to card combat, to bard rap-battles & more.

FAN ART

Story is interesting, weird and fun.

Enemies all have own attacks and own look to them.

Voice, Type is cool and different as used to talk with people and in combat and everything even solve riddles is very different to standard way to attack in games.

Characters that you meet on your adventure all have own look and own personality to them.

Playable heroes all have own look and own personality to them and own back story to learn and even own feel to using them in combat.

Art style is cool and very detailed and retro with a black and white look to the game.

Can be confusing as where to go and is easy to get lost.

Solving the riddles can be challenging and makes you think.

Collecting magic points by eating bugs or catching fish to use more than basic attacks can slow gameplay as surprising how fast burn through points in combat.

Movement is clunky as can only turn 90 degrees and felt stiff.

OVERALL SUMMARY

Overall story is interesting, weird, enemies all have own look and own attacks to learn to beat them and characters that you meet all have own personality and look to them and art style is nice liked the retro black and white look and the Heroes you can play as all have own look and attacks and even own lore and feel to them and the Voice, Type way to interact, speak and even in combat was very cool as different to normal games. However for £18,99, is easy to get lost and be confused as where to go which happened alot and movement felt clunky and stiff as can only turn 90 degrees and collecting bugs and fishing to regain magic points for using more powerful attacks can slow gameplay fun as burn through magic points easily.
