Good old 8 bit gaming is making another trip to the video game world again, I think he misses us. Good thing they used a really long name so people have to look twice. Your character (basically you) is a pickaxe, and your landlord (or in this case the overlord) is trying to destroy the world. He can’t very well destroy the world without a good pickaxe. So your job is to create dungeons in the ground and hide your overlord from all the heroes who have come to save the day, in hopes that once they kill you the world will be at peace. It is up to you to create a safe dungeon to hide your overlord, and create enough obsticles for the heros so that they can’t find him.

At your disposal are goblins and monsters. Place them throughout the dungeon to protect your overlord. This is where it gets complicated. Each monster lives and eats in different environments underground so you can’t just put them where you want. You must keep all their attributes and weaknesses into consideration while placing them throughout the dungeon or they will die, and dead monsters don’t keep heros away.

Now that you’ve got that to worry about, don’t forget that you must take care of the ground so that your goblins can survive. Also, the heros are vulnerable to the different kinds of ghouls and earth so you must think ahead. This is obviously a strategy game so put your thinking hats on.

This game will be released in July and it sounds interesting. Stay tuned for more news and reviews.
