Some might tell you that taking a badger to a gun fight is poor tactics, but when the badger also> has a gun, as he does in new RPG Grimshade, it’s genius. Released today, it’s a JRPG-ish steampunk fantasy adventure with turn-based tactical combat, and a menagerie of human and furry characters, including mustelid sniper Charlie. I’ve had the chance to play a little of it so far, and some purple prose (admittedly delivered by an overly dramatic villain) aside, it seems like an interesting little romp, and a solid debut from new studio Talerock. See the launch trailer below.
