- Our contributer @theorcosaurus takes a look at he new RPG published by Raw Fury, Skald - Against the Black Priory, which gives him flashbacks to his childhood, since the game channels its inner Ultima V pretty hard.
From the Steam store page:
SKALD:Against the Black Priory is a retro-style party-based RPG set in a grim-dark fantasy world of tragic heroes, violent deaths and Lovecraftian horror. Take a chance and roll the dice as you embark on a compelling story filled with deadly creatures, branching story and tactical, turn-based combat.

I have severe ADHD and usually I struggle to push through RPGs at a consistent pace, which I mention because it's important context for what I'm gonna say about this game: I bought and downloaded it yesterday afternoon and proceeded to play it non-stop for literally twelve consecutive hours. I know that's probably not the most healthy thing to do but I just couldn't put it down, I just wanted to see more and more of the beautiful art and the hauntingly beautiful, deeply unsettling writing. I know opinions on what makes a great RPG vary quite a lot and that this is subjective, but this is the best new RPG I've played in years, and in spite of the fact that my favorite games tend to be action games this game immediately jumped to the top of my list and is in competition with Mech Engineer for my favorite of the year so far and most likely my pick for my personal game of the year, though obviously we'll have to see how the rest of the year's releases play out. This will be a difficult one to top, though, and I'm really hoping we can get some expansions or something from the developer because even though I'm not even close to finishing the game I already know I want more.
I really, really, really enjoyed playing this one. A lot.
Of course you did!
I highly recommend everyone to play it with CRT mode.
Alright, time to pick this one up at some point. Looks like a really strong contender this year to me.
You better.
Been really looking forward to this after playing the demo a year or so ago. Glad to see it's improved quite a bit in that time! Going to have to pick it up and play it this weekend -- hopefully we get more thunderstorms here for extra ambiance (and a good extra reason to stay in and nerd out!)
I'm having a blast playing this one. Really good game.
I agree, 30 hours in and it is a top RPG at a very, very low price too.
Like you got heavy C64 vibes from that colour pallet. Only way this could be more perfect is if there was a physical release that came in a little cardboard box on a tape shaped USB (and I didn't realise how much I want that till I said it aloud)
well i am waiting for the game to come out !!!
Shouldn’t be too long anymore. Or it might be even out already.
Please turn up the music.
We will. Next review will only consist of game footage and loud as fuck Appalachian Anarchy music.

When did Werner Herzog start doing PC game reviews?
He gotta make money somehow.
