소개
Crimson Capes is a punishing 2D action-RPG that blends the precision of Soulslike combat with the exploration of a Metroidvania. Featuring stunning rotoscoped pixel art, players join the Crimson Capes guild to hunt down rogue wizards and monstrous abominations in a world inspired by classic pulp fantasy.
스토리
Set in the troubled kingdom of Amvros, you step into the boots of Milon the Tempest, a witch-hunter leading the elite Crimson Capes order. Tasked with pursuing rogue wizards via dangerous contracts, you will uncover a deep conspiracy regarding the true cost of power. The narrative draws heavily from 'sword and sorcery' classics like Conan and Elric, presenting a morally ambiguous, dog-eat-dog world.
Gameplay
Combat is methodical and animation-committed, prioritizing realistic fencing techniques like feints, thrusts, and guards over raw stats. Success requires reading opponent patterns, managing spacing, and mastering elemental magic (wind, thunder, fire, darkness). The experience is enhanced by seamless multiplayer, allowing for cooperative hunts or cutthroat PvP invasions.
