Some enemies will have a ‘ward’ of one of these types which you need to break before you can deal them damage, so you can load up one form to have a variety of synergistic builds. Each ability is assigned a damage type from Sharp, Blunt, Dark and Light. So your Rat form can have it’s poison building chomp basic attack, but can equip Arrow Flurry from the Ranger, the Stomp from the Guard and Water Spray from the Turtle form and you’ve got a very nice and even spread of abilities. The basic signature move is only usable to the form that starts with but every other subsequent one you unlock on each form can be assigned to the remaining 3 slots on the other forms. The novel part of the form system is that every form you unlock allows each other form to equip it’s passive and secondary abilities.
#Nobody saves the world game plus
As you level the Rat up you unlock new abilities of which you can equip up to 4, plus 4 passives (once you reach sufficient level). The Rat not only can fit into small places to find secret areas but its basic attack builds a poison status on whichever enemy you’re chomping on. One of the first forms you get is the Rat. Each one has unique passive and signature abilities to help you navigate the world and deal with the myriad bad guys that litter the landscape. You start as the titular Nobody, an amnesiac blank slate who quickly gains the ability to shift into new personas. It has a very simple start with none of the tentpole mechanics set up until about an hour and a half in, but once they get established it really opens up.Īt its centre is a mechanic of shifting ‘forms’. To begin with I wasn’t sure there was going to be much substance to the game. It almost constantly releases dopamine into your brain, and in these times of abject misery and despair we could all do with more dopamine.
Nobody Saves The World doesn’t do anything startlingly new, but everything it does it does incredibly well. If you’re one of the few people who stays on the page for more than 25 seconds allow me expand on my grand proclamation that this charming little action RPG is potentially superior to every other title yet to be released this year (I can hear the PLATFORM OF CHOICE crowd warming up their teeth to have a good old gnash at some indie being better than the new MASSIVE TRIPLE A MONSTER RELEASED ON SAID PLATFORM). Is it too early to start the Game Of The Year 2022 list? The last week of January seems a bit soon to be bandying such grandiose claims about but occasionally along comes a really early game that’s got that bit of something that makes you go “Aye, it’s really, really good, that is*.”
