pcworld 13 game demos hit steam to celebrate the game awards system shock

Jody Macgregor, Weekend/AU Editor McPixel 3 Even without a sore neck, it's exhausting to play a dungeon crawler with no quiet moments in it, no time to take a breath before kicking down the next door. I hope the full version has save games though, something the original and this demo are lacking. It's still neat being able to pick up your dude and hop them around the board, and with a desktop edition I'll have a much better chance of playing with a group of friends rather than the one dude who also has VR. The infinite relentless enemies feel like having the Monster Manual thrown at your face. It's not the kind of room-by-room janitorial dungeon clearing I prefer. Wave after wave of goblins, spiders, rats, and undead elves spawn anywhere you're not looking and you just have to hold out until you find and kill whichever slime or whatever has the key to the next level. When you attack you roll a big chunker of a polyhedral die right there on the board, bouncing through the dungeon rooms, hoping it comes up a crit and not a fumble that will see your hero spin on the spot and attack in a random direction-probably where an ally's standing. The Game Festival is designed from the ground-up as an event without barriers, extending the benefits of a physical event to the global gaming community that watches The Game Awards.Every turn you move and attack with your fantasy heroes, playing cards for special abilities like spells, arrows, potions and the like.

Let’s face it: Not everyone can attend a physical trade show or consumer event. “Now feels like the right time to take the next step with The Game Festival, a completely digital approach to the consumer event space.

“Six years ago I bet everything I had to create The Game Awards as a way to celebrate our passion for gaming,” Geoff Keighley, creator of The Game Awards said in a statement.
