INTRODUCTION

Empyreal is a complex, challenging, feature-rich action RPG. In a far-flung corner of the galaxy an Expedition arrives on a hitherto unexplored planet to find a colossal Monolith built by a lost civilisation.

FEATURES

• Gameplay & Combat:
• Choose one of three weapon archetypes: The Glaive, The Mace & Shield or the Cannon. Each weapon has its own core move set giving each their own unique playstyle.
• Empyreal features a unique blend of RPG Systems and Skill-based Combat. Master the flow of combat with perfectly timed attacks, deflects, parries and even many Abilities that gain additional effects when perfectly timed.
• Find powerful new Equipment, adjust your stats via an extensive modification system and refine your build to perfection.
• Abilities System:
• Empyreal features dozens of Abilities with a huge variety of effects including dealing damage, providing defence or healing, extra movement options and other utility.
• Find new Abilities as you progress through the game, many of the most powerful are well-hidden or locked behind lengthy Quests.
• Extensive character customisations.
• Experiment with a multitude of Character Creation options or choose one of the 30 presets to jump straight into the action with.
• Choose your character’s background giving you a unique backstory and starting set of equipment. You will also occasionally have the chance to respond with special dialogue options which are specific to your background.
• NPC Character Questlines:
•  Each member of the expedition has their own personal questline. All of these questlines have multiple endings depending on your choices. It is even possible to fail them entirely…
• Paying close attention to your fellow expedition members will eventually grant powerful rewards but only if you stay the course.
• Cartograms:
• One of the most important and unique features in the game. These ancient artifacts are blueprints for aspects you encounter in each level inside the Monolith.
• What enemies you face, what loot you find, how many lives you get, what elements you need a matching resistance to (and more) are all randomly generated. There are many ways each level is different depending on the attributes of the cartogram you use to access it.
• The levels themselves are all designed by hand, and you are rewarded for exploring; so find hidden details, shortcuts and seek out the secrets within. 
• Boss Battles:
• Each Cartogram contains an end boss. The selected Cartogram defines the loot table of the boss, and the chance of a drop. Epic boss battles enable you to target items you may need for future cartograms. 
• Sharing & Trading:
• Items including Cartograms can be shared with other players via a Mail system and a Trading Post.
• Asynchronous Features:
• Although a single player game, Empyreal has a number of asynchronous features allowing you to feel the presence of other players inside the Monolith. One of these features is ‘Into the Aether’ allowing you to gift an item through a tear in the Aether to another player, where it becomes “Aether Touched” and gains a significant stat boost.

FAN ART

Enemies are impressive and all have look and own attacks to learn to avoid and enemies will chase you and group up very fast.

Items that you find and can use have big variety from shield regen to grenades and weapon buffs and resistances and much more and all have own look and feel to them.

Combat can be clunky as no lock on system makes it hard to focus on a single target when there groups of enemies and dodging is clunky as feels slow and not as smooth as hoped for.

Can be daunting as alot of items you need to learn new skills.

Difficulty options nice suit everyone.
Choices offer own rewards.
Factions own pros, cons to using them.
Schools, magic offer own perks, rooms, staff own uses, perks

Can be daunting as alot to learn.
Can be fiddly on a controller.
No real story connection with people made me not care and can change them often.

I was given a PS5 code from Publisher Blit Works @BlitWorks Developer Red Nexus Games @rednexusgames

This is released in the UK on the 1/5/2025 and in the UK is priced at £15,99.

INTRODUCTION

Peglin is a pachinko roguelike where no two runs are the same and fight monsters, acquire relics.

FEATURES

• Collect and upgrade powerful orbs and relics to defeat the monsters and bosses that stand in your way.
• Fight enemies with Pachinko-like gameplay – hit more pegs to do more damage. Use crit potions, refresh potions, and bombs wisely.
• Explore a new map every time, with different orbs, enemies, and surprises along the way.

FAN ART

Enemies all have own look and own attacks to learn.

Choices are cool as not all straightforward such as taking fireballs that damage you but offer bonuses and alot of different choices are fun.

Power ups are cool as alot of them and all have own look and feel to them and can be upgraded offering even more bonuses to them.

Easy to pick up and play and easy to understand.

Fast paced combat is fun.

Art style is nice and detailed.

Can be frustrating as sometimes feels like you are set to fail.

Easy fail as once you have shot your ball is very RNG based on how many times it bounces or hits certain spots or where it ends up.

Can be daunting as alot to learn in sense or alot of the orbs have certain conditions or certain spots you need to hit to get best amount of damage from them.

OVERALL SUMMARY

Overall enemies have own look and own attacks with cool choices that offer own rewards with loads of power ups that can be upgraded and have own look and feel to them and has a nice easy to pick up and play with fast combat and a nice detailed art style. However for £15.99, can be frustrating as sometimes feels like you are set up to fail and no direct control after you shoot the ball as at the mercy of RNG regarding amount of bounces or position it goes and can be daunting as alot to learn as alot of the power ups require you to hit certain objects to get best results from them.
