  • Relive the Cosmic Horrors of the 80s with Kingdom of Night

    For those born after the 1980s: Yes, this is exactly what it was like.

    A new 80s themed, isometric action-RPG (ARPG) from Friends of Safety is here today in the form of Kingdom of Night. Full of cosmic horror and retro Americana, Kingdom of Night is out now through Steam, GOG, Humble, and Itch.

    Fight your way through the little town of Miami, Arizona. This Miami, like the one in Florida, is full of cosmic horrors, demons, monster lairs, and plenty of story-driven encounters. Those who liked the horror flicks from the 80s will probably notice a lot of similarities between those movies and the sort of style this game is going for.

    There are five playable classes, skill customization, lots of loot, and even the ability to play local co-op with a friend, loved one, or mortal enemy.

    About the game

    One night, in 1987, in the small town of Miami, Arizona, a satanic cult unwittingly summons the ancient evil, Baphomet, catapulting the town into chaos. John, awoken by the kidnapping of his neighbor, sets out into the night to fight back against the demonic invasion and rescue his friends before it's too late...

    Take control of John as his adventure leads him through an hour-by-hour experience of what could be everyone's last night on Earth. As John, you will encounter unearthly evils, Demon lords, afflicted townsfolk, high school bullies, and a torrent of engaging, serial-like side stories, all nested in a larger-than-life fantasy that brings the ultimate evil to a neighborhood near you.

    Choose your class, customize your abilities, and battle nightmarish creatures as you collect unique gear in order to infiltrate the massive lairs of Demon lords that have taken over the town.

    Key Features
    • Save Miami |Take down the town’s demons as you get closer to unraveling Baphomet’s grip on Miami. Explore the entire map of the town, interact with a wide cast of NPCs and take on the Demon Generals in the order that you wish.
    • Choose Your Class |Choose from 5 different classes: Barbarian, Knight, Rogue, Necromancer and Sorcerer. Each class excels differently, providing a unique play style depending on your choice. The class you choose decides your base style, while the skill trees allow for further customization.
    • Shape Your Character | Skill trees are split into three branches, containing 10 different talents each. As you level up, spend allotted points into any of the three branches of your class. Once you have reached level 10 in your first branch, you are free to cross over into another branch, allowing you to fully customize your play style.
    • Hoard the Best Gear | Outfit yourself with new equipment via quest rewards, hidden items throughout the town, and scoring random drops from a multi-tiered loot system with variable drop rates. Items range from common to completely unique. The items you collect provide an extra dimension to character stat development and have special abilities that will make you even more powerful.
    • Co-op With Your Friends | You don’t have to face the forces of darkness by yourself. In Kingdom of Night, either play through the campaign as John alone, or with a friend in local co-op. Team up and synergize different character classes, becoming a torrent of annihilation that the underworld will fear.

      After Three Years, Square Enix Finally Remembered Kingdom Hearts Wasn't on Steam Yet
      by Shawn Zipay
      Wow, Square really is serious about ditching platform exclusives.

      The PC release of the Kingdom Hearts games happened way back in 2021. However, the PC release then did come with a catch and that catch was that it was exclusive to the Epic Games Store. Like many games that have come before and after it, many believed that it would be an Epic Games Store exclusive for a year at most.

      That year turned to two, then two years became three years. Finally, after over a three-year...

      Review: Kingdom Come: Deliverance (PC)
      by Shawn Zipay


      I don't remember history being this buggy. If there is one area that video games come up short in, it's when they attempt to tackle real-life history. Specifically, games come up well short in being historically accurate without also including a healthy dose of embellishment or suspension of disbelief. In nearly all of the games that focus on real-world history, you almost always play as some overpowered jack-of-all-trades. Yes, this includes games and franchises such as ...
