With a beady-eyed cast of characters both stylized and named after the team’s own, dearly departed rodent pals, the furry friends get to live again in this somber-looking, yet strangely beguiling, fantasy adventure. Inspired by fantasy fiction of yesteryear and pad-snappingly tough examples from the “Souls-like” genre, the British developer’s new release - only its second video game to date - hopes to capture the same murky worlds, engaging characters, and tense, hyper-combative gameplay of its contemporaries, transitioned to an anthropomorphic storybook universe. So begins Tails of Iron, a brand new action-RPG from indie outfit Odd Bug Studios. It certainly is the most ignoble of starts to Redgi’s reign, but while the scaly marauders surely brought unheard catastrophe to the Rat Kingdom, they made one mistake, they left our young king’s heart still beating… The Frog Clan had made their presence felt, effectively and with callous disregard for the life of the innocent. His father slain, his kingdom in aflame, his family missing, and his people in panic. Having only been King nary a minute, Redgi already lies, broken and alone, under the blood and mud-stained bodies of his own people. Lose yourself in the gorgeous and lovingly-crafted 2D hand-drawn art style.The noble bard told us “Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown” and nobody knows this better than Redgi of the Crimson Fort. Overcome savage boss fights against the Frog Clan’s deadly, oversized generals Collect rare ingredients to cook up health-boosting feasts Unearth special blueprints to forge new and powerful weapons Complete side quests to earn additional gold-on-the-side Assemble a band of brave companions, ready to aid you on select missions Customise your attack style with a vast array of distinct weapons and armour
