It was announced by developer Batholith Entertainment and publisher indie-darling, Indie Voyage, that Zavix Tower – a game that takes you back in time when old-school, party-based, 1st person CRPG with rogue-like elements was all the rave, is available today via Steam and currently on sale. Zavix Tower features a persistent world with turn-based gameplay and endless demons to beat as you fight your way to the exit.
Check out the trailer of Zavix Tower, showcasing teh games’ features:
“Zavix Tower challenges you to create your band of valiant heroes to partake in a difficult task. Select race, class and stats before sending them off to town for a good’ol’battle of skills in the games procedurally generated levels. Stop by the various shops for upgrades and cool enhancements and enter the tower to take out some baddies. As you play, you collect coins, loot, and other fun treasures. It is important to upgrade your party to progress and the games built-in shops offers a host of cool add-ons and enhancements. Epic boss battles awaits – and only heroes strong enough will survive. With cunning strategy and planning, you might even end up victorious!
About The Game
Open the game, name your town and create your party of valiant heroes. Name them, define their key stats and select their class and race. Once you’re satisfied with their awesomeness, send them straight into the town. Buy them some goodies at the Blacksmith shop, equip them at the Inn and then head straight into the Tower to kill some baddies.
Once in the tower, each level will be procedurally generated. If you aren’t careful in the first few levels, you’ll die in horrible ways, screaming and cursing the developers for their meanness. “What did I ever do to them,” you might ask.
But once you get used to heading back to the town, selling off your goods and then balancing your found items with the items in the shop, you’ll make it to Level 5: the first boss. If you aren’t prepared, you’ll die an embarrassed heap of self-loathing. If you’ve managed to claim the skills and knowledge of strategy the game requires, you’ll emerge victorious, able to ascend ever higher. So plan well and plan often.
Remember to define your party’s layout each time you enter the tower, optimizing how you approach bosses and the more difficult areas of the game.
So, enjoy, have fun, keep cool, and best of luck in Zavix Tower!
