About Iron Crypticle

PLEASE NOTE: `IRON CRYPTICLE` IS AN EXPANDED AND ENHANCED VERSION OF `IRON FISTICLE` - FEATURING A RANGE OF GAMEPLAY, VISUAL AND PRESENTATION UPGRADES AND IMPROVEMENTS.



Cryptonia’s princess and the glorious Royal Treasures of Cryptonia have been abducted!
The washed-up kingsguard must leap into action and plunge down into the ancient magical crypts on a rescue mission!

INSPIRED BY ARCADE CLASSICS


You could summarise IRON CRYPTICLE as structured around the core of Smash TV / Robotron, deepened by an item collection system inspired by Bubble Bobble / Rainbow Islands, all placed in a Ghosts and Goblins / Gauntlet type medieval setting.

GAMEPLAY FEATURES


If you want to survive past the Guardian Monsters of each floor then you’ll need to upgrade your abilities. Speed, Damage, Fire Rate and Weapon Duration can all be upgraded either from shops or through careful chaining gobbling up food pickups.Most enemies drop a food item (delicious cheese, slices of cake, lollipops, hotdogs, fruit…) with which you need to juggle chain-collecting, all whilst slashing your way through hordes of ghastly creatures.Route selection is very important too, with each floor made up of a branching system of rooms. Each room type has their advantages and disadvantages – plus with each play through the rooms all shift about and reform, just to keep you on your toes!

To help you on your quest are a range of weapons, magical scrolls and items to unlock. For close combat emergencies you can rely on your dash move for quick escape, or activate your Atomic Fist to punch a hole in the enemy ranks.Be sure to visit the cat merchant to see what is on offer. Or try the arcade room to earn extra coins and health. You can play solo or up to 4 player local CO-OP; either way you`ll find the crypts run deep with many secrets to uncover on your adventures in IRON CRYPTICLE.

Just couldn't get into this. The rooms are huge, your movement speed is really slow, and the game really wants you to pick up item drops in rapid succession before they dissappear to combo which just doesn't feel good given how spread out the rooms are and how slow you move. I suspect that this is to accommodate 4 players (which, to be fair, is probably more fun) but playing it solo just felt like a chore.

One of the best arcade twin stick throwbacks I've played in a minute. Very strong Gauntlet and Smash TV influences, but unlike other indie retro throwbacks, this one knows what clicks, what's special about that coin op experience. Very strong fundamentals, very fun core gameplay, the scoring system is very fun... and sure, the roguelite elements are kind of a eyeroll, but they don't define the core of the experience, they're more to spice things up in the long run. Kind of a banger tbh

A seriously moreish and tight retro twin stick arena shooter with a phenomenally good push-your-luck scoring system. It's up there with Nex Machina on my twin stick shooter leaderboard.
