Godfall: The Companies II
March 20, 2010Book of Dread Revision 1.85
March 25, 2010Up until now I’ve mostly been posting background material that hints at the new game’s mechanics, but it seems like some people are getting a bit worried so it’s probably best to clarify what Godfall is and is not.
In Monsters’ Den: Godfall, you take control of a fledgling Company. You build a roster of (created, customized) heroes, from which you assemble parties to tackle missions provided by the Order or private interests. The game no longer takes place in a single, continuous dungeon, but it is still very definitely a dungeon crawler.
It’s not a linear, narrative-focused RPG. It still relies heavily on procedural generation, and still allows for unlimited play.
