Swiss Developer Unveils Upcoming Game with Deep Crafting and Combat
Twisted BrainZ, an independent game studio based in Switzerland, recently announced their latest project, Rise of Peles, a vampire-themed role-playing game set to launch in Steam Early Access for Windows PC in 2024. The game invites players to immerse themselves in a rich, dark world inspired by 18th-century horror, offering a unique blend of turn-based combat, crafting, and narrative choices.
Gameplay and Features
Rise of Peles challenges players to rise from the dead and shape their destiny as a vampire. The game is divided into four acts, each drawing on vampiric legends and myths from centuries past. Players must navigate through intense battles, craft equipment, and expand their lineage to reclaim their rightful dominion.
Combat Mechanics
The game introduces a conditional turn-based combat system where players can engage in battles against humans, monsters, and other entities. This system allows for strategic depth, as players must master a wide range of abilities and utilize an arsenal of melee weapons to draw blood from their foes.
Crafting and Castle Management
At the heart of Rise of Peles is an extensive crafting system. Players can optimize their castle’s layout for efficiency and automate crafting processes. By biting and transforming skilled artisans into thralls, players can command them to create unique weapons and armor, ensuring that their character, a true lord of darkness, is equipped with nothing but the finest gear.
Narrative and Progression
The game features a choice-based narrative, giving players full control over the outcome of scenes and relationships. Decisions made throughout the game will influence the path forward. Additionally, a robust progression system allows players to customize their vampire character according to their preferred playstyle, with skill and appearance evolving as the game progresses.
Day-Night Cycle
A key element of Rise of Peles is its day-night cycle. Vampires must return to their castle by dawn to avoid the deadly sunlight and rest. Meanwhile, their underlings will continue to gather resources and craft items, ensuring players are well-prepared for what lies ahead.
Looking Forward
As Rise of Peles prepares for its 2024 release on Steam Early Access, Twisted BrainZ promises an engaging experience for fans of vampire lore and RPGs alike. With its intricate systems and immersive narrative, the game aims to offer a fresh take on the vampire RPG genre.
