Shadows of Adam
Circle Entertainment and Something Classic have announced that Shadow of Adam will be released on May 3rd in Europe and North America. It will be available for pre-purchase from April 26th, with a 10% off discount: 13.49€ / $13.49 (regular price: 14.99€ / $14.99). This version of the game includes all DLC previously released for the game, including “Guild of the Artificers”.
Here’s a trailer, some details, and some screenshots for the game:
A blend of classic ideas, modern touches, humour and outrageous battles, Shadows of Adam is both a love letter to classics in the genre and a fresh take.
Tucked away from the outside world by the impenetrable haze of the Misty Woods, the village of Adam has mostly lived in peace since the days of the Wraith War. The dark power that fueled that war has vanished, but darkness is descending once more and Adam’s legendary hero, Orazio, is no more.
10 years ago he left without explanation and never returned, leaving his son and adopted daughter to wrestle with the dark secret he left behind—a secret that must now be revealed if the children hope to save both Adam and their departed father, though its revelation could unhinge the world.
In terms of gameplay Shadows of Adam features multiple playable characters, fast-paced battles, gorgeous graphics, an awesome soundtrack (with over 40 tracks) and the convenience to save anywhere you like. Whether playing on the TV or in handheld mode, the game’s glorious pixels will immerse you in the adventure and its memorable scenes.

Reverse Crawl
Digerati have announced yet another game for the Nintendo Switch: Reverse Crawl, a turn-based strategy RPG develpoped by Nerdook, releasing on May 10th in Europe and North America. This version of the game features a brand new local PvP mode (created specifically for it), alongside the Campaign and Endless modes, and also sports a UI adapted to the console.
Here’s the trailer and some details:
Reverse Crawl inverts the classic dungeon crawling premise, putting players in the claws and armored boots of monsters, undead, and other fantasy enemies in a quest to defeat heroic warriors and their Red Queen.
You’re dead already! But such a trifling inconvenience isn’t going to stop you – the Revenant King – from reclaiming your throne. Reverse Crawl is a fast-paced turn-based strategy RPG that lets you lead mobs of monster minions and back-from-the-grave goons into battle against the elite armies of the dastardly Red Queen.
Finally, here’s the list of key features:
- Vanquish foes using a deceptively deep tactical turn-based combat system
- Assemble an army of dark dungeon dwellers, including skeletons, zombies, goblins and more
- A dynamic campaign that’s different each time, complete with a branching storyline
- Battle your way through Campaign and Endless modes, and an all-new local PvP mode
- Unlock new minions, traits and powers as you play
- Created by one-man indie machine, Nerdook (Monster Slayers, Vertical Drop Heroes)
