Build and Defend - coop survival game
« on: April 02, 2014, 10:59:16 pm »

I had a search for a thread relating to this game, but I couldn't find one. Looks kind of interesting.

Build&Defend is a game where you should survive by building fortress, by fighting monsters and by exploring dungeons. More precisely, Build&Defend is sandbox survival coop rogue-like. Build&Defend worlds are generated randomly so each game is unique. Also, you can play alone, with some friend on the same computer, or on-line.

Anybody tried it? Worth the money? I wouldn't mind some online coop with B12 people.

It looked cool so I went to the faq. It didn't look cool when I saw that the tutorial video for cutting down a tree was 4 minutes long. It looked cool again when I realized the person giving the tutorial was an attractive female with an accent.

The maker of the game is quite familiar with DF it seems.

Well, it sounds like it has potential. I'll have to check it out when I get home.

I bought it and had a quick play. From what I can see it is quite polished at this point, but the controls leave a lot to be desired. It seems to be designed more with console style controllers envisioned. Still, I think it is something to keep an eye on.
