It’s interesting to see a blend of genres and art styles together that you wouldn’t normally expect, especially when it involves lovecraft. Othercide is a tactical turn-based strategy game similar to XCOM which is slated to be released later in this year in early access on Steam.
The game has an artstyle similar to that of Nier :Automata and is beautiful in the monochrome look it’s going for. It’s said to be based around the idea of creatures from another plane of existence attempting to invade and take control of earth and is very horror inspired. You control ‘Daughters’ who will use their powers and absorb that of their enemies in order to become stronger and fight off these nightmarish creatures. Not much else is known but I am always excited to hear about an XCOM-like game so I will be keeping an eye on this one!
That’s all for now, and as always. It’s not just a game, It’s a Life.
