The Keep, an old-school first person dungeon crawler with real-time combat for PC is set to be released on Steam for $14.99 on March 16, 2017. I know this because the above trailer lays it all out right up front which is kind of nice! Feels sort of weird when a video game trailer actually tells you about the game and doesn’t try to be simply a mini-movie.
In The Keep you will embark on a quest to explore caves and dungeons filled with monsters to slain, traps to avoid, puzzles to solve, and treasures to find underneath and surrounding the tower of evil sorcerer Watrys. You know, the basic sort of thing early PC dungeon crawlers were all about!
Every enemy requires different tactics during combat, every weapon class offers unique combos and by rearranging and combining runes that you have to find in the first place you can cast powerful spells.
Game features:
- An old-school first-person dungeon crawler with a modern twist
- Vast underground dungeons filled with traps, monsters, puzzles and treasures
- Three difficulties. The Keep will offer something for newbies in the genre, seasoned adventurers and for those who like to tackle with proper challenge—every difficulty level will have a Perma-death option.
- Rune magic—you can rearrange runes on a 5×4 board and then chain them together to cast powerful elemental magic (Fire, Ice or Lightning). Runes are scarce but there are a lot of spells, so be careful to pick the right combinations
