It does not make use of analog-sticks for aiming either. There are also some boringly unoriginal but otherwise optional puzzles to solve.įirstly, it has to be said that although the game was designed for the computer platform first, it has no support for mouse control whatsoever. The player must learn to utilize the abilities of his/her chosen adventurer efficiently, as well as exploiting the relative stupidity of the monsters to even the odds and learning to avoid the other hazards in the dungeons.įailure results in death of the adventurer, which in turn reduces the pool of “extra lives” for the adventurer(s). Even in multiplayer, the adventurers are greatly outnumbered.

Their genders are not important in any way though.) (The genders of the adventurers are not conclusively clear, despite some pronouns which are used in the text seen in the game.

Starting from April 2014, Hammerwatch would receive major updates every few months, starting with additional character classes and re-balancing of its existing content.Īs of this time of writing, Hammerwatch has obtained an additional campaign module, which is the most significant update as of yet. That state of idleness changed after the game was finally put up on discounted and pay-as-you-like offers. Balance issues were not addressed, or at least not documented well within this period.Īs fun as it was, Hammerwatch had seemed like yet another indie game left to languish from neglect – until the second quarter of 2014. Version 1.1, which happened within this period, was mainly bug-fixes. Indeed, there was more than a half-year gap between its debut and the first (free) major content update. it is released as soon as its makers think that it is finished and does not grow in any way afterwards. UNEVENTFUL MORE THAN HALF-YEAR SINCE DEBUT:įirstly, it has to be said here that Hammerwatch had given the impression that it is yet another one-off, fire-and-forget garage game, e.g. If there is any story, it is just an excuse to have intrepid (and fool-hardy) adventurers cutting a swath through hordes of monsters and/or dying horrible deaths, or to make references to the classic video games which inspired Hammerwatch. The player is part of a group of adventurers, out to carve their way through dungeons full of danger, loot treasures and purchase new powers from weird merchants who somehow sell such things instead of actual products. However, the story does appear to follow typical fantasy adventure tropes.

Instead, the player has to look elsewhere to figure out the story. Hammerwatch does not do much to introduce the player to its story. Jochum Skoglund and Niklas Myrberg are such people, and their game is Hammerwatch. They are so fond of them, that they would make their own video game, albeit with elements which they loved in those games and little of anything else which is original.

There are game-makers who are very fond of old classics such as Gauntlet and Tower of Druaga. By Gelugon_baat | Review Date: October 3, 2014
