This week, developers Gregarious Games and Robot Circus along with publisher Numskull Games announced that their coming turn-based tactical role-playing game title ‘Reptilian Rising’ will see a brand-new Steam demo on 18 February. This bizarre RPG with distinct Claymation visuals is something to keep an eye out for—with the full game coming to PC via Steam and Nintendo Switch consoles in Spring of this year.
Have a gander below for more details on Reptilian Rising.
The timeline and everyone in it (that includes you) is under siege! Confront the Reptilian Rising, bring retro miniatures to life on battlefields across time. Fight against The Ouroboros through seven time periods, recruit the best of humanity’s heroes, and upgrade your favorites for the fight ahead. To accomplish this mission, players will take the role of recognisable faces, from heroes like Winston Churchill, Cleopatra, Albert Einstein and many more as they battle against an army of reptile monsters, like a three-headed fascist dinosaur, the Tri-Cannon – a triceratops mashed with a minigun and a legion of scaly sociopaths.
Open the door, get on the floor, everybody shoot the dinosaur
As if talking dinosaurs and flesh-hungry lizardmen weren’t bad enough, your time-traveling heroes will have to battle a weird, wild army of invaders. Malevolent Manborgs, lethal Lazer Raptors, the terrifying Tri-Cannon (a bogus hybrid of Triceratops and minigun), and the diabolical Dictatorsaur.
Great Scott! Dictatorsaur!?
With three of humanity’s worst villains sharing one giant dinosaur body, you’ll need the best our species can muster to even the odds. Call up heroes from the dawn of history like Julius Caesar (et tu, Reptiles?), medieval masters of war, like Robin Hood (take from the rich, shoot arrows at dinosaurs) and great minds of super-science like Albert Einstein – all things are relative, but we’re kicking the reptiles out of this family gathering!
Time After Time
There’s more to time travel than hopping in a DeLorean, phone booth, or retro police box. In Reptilian Rising you’ll use time energy on time-twisting abilities to throw the Reptilians for a loop. Create clones of your troops, call in reinforcements (we’ve got Scarface on speed-dial), or create time-gates to rush your heroes across the map double time.
Do The Evolution
If you can turn the tide without causing a temporal paradox, you can replay missions to tackle bonus objectives, hop between time periods to uncover secrets, and more.
