UnderRail is a turn-based RPG set in a post apocalyptic future where the Earth's surface is no longer habitable forcing humanity to live underground in a system of metro stations.
"Today, we had an opportunity to do a Q and A interview with the developer of "Underrail", Dejan Radisic. So we talked about everything from game development, game design and his advice for new and up and coming developers." - Nenad Radunovic, TGG.
I've honestly never even heard of "Underrail" before, but the game looks rather good (nice interview btw!").
When you think cRPG's you probably think of the classics like Baulder's Gate or Icewind Dale. Perhaps you think of newer cRPG's like Pillars of Eternity or Divinity: Original Sin.
However there are a whole world of classic style RPG's out there that you may have not heard of. Here are 5 you should check out.
DSOGaming's Matt writes: "UnderRail is an isometric CRPG that throws us back to an era where RPGs had no spoken dialog and had very lengthy descriptions of the environment and the people and/or things that inhabit it. UnderRail may not have the graphics that one would expect from a games released at the same time, but this clearly intentional as to really provide a classic experience. This is easy to tell because the environments are incredibly detailed."
This gives me a Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 vibe. I might look into it.
Color me interested.
Played the alpha for the longest,.. It is awesome as hell,.. Probably better tactically as Fallout 2 and deeper ,.. amazing game
I've been keeping this game in my periphery for the better part of two years or so, patiently waiting to see the end result. Now that it's out and on sale, I'm SO freaking tempted to purchase it, but... with so many other games in my backlog (Wasteland 2 & Pillars of Eternity -- I"m looking at you!) and on the horizon, I'm not sure it'd be worth it right now. In other words, I'm asking if someone would be kind enough to offer a little convincing! The original Fallout titles are my all-time favorites. I've also heard mention that Underrail is a cross between Deus Ex and System Shock 2 (also two of my all-time favorites, as well). Can anyone lend credence to these claims, and tell me whether it's worth a bit longer of a wait or if it's something I should be playing RIGHT now? ;)
