![]() Form and FunctionThough I didn’t get to experience it for myself, Drinkbox showed me that as you progress and unlock more skills with each class, you’ll actually be able to switch up attacks and assign skills from one Form to another. The Archer, meanwhile, could dodge around a room (as the only character with a specific dodge), and the intricacies of its firing mechanic-while not distractingly deep-did require decent aiming and maneuvering skills.

Each class starts out with two basic moves before upgrading and learning new skills as you advance. 10 Images The chunk of the adventure I played let me delve into the first three: a ferocious little rat with a poisonous bite, a more typical archer who’s better for ranged attacks but a bit squishier in a close-quarters fight, and a magician more suited to Las Vegas or a birthday party, with attacks that incorporate a deck of cards and summonable rabbits.
