Capybara Games has long been one of my favorite indie studios, but I didn't expect the team's next game to be throwing it back to a 15-year-old Nintendo DS cult classic.
Capybara stole my heart with the time-rewinding shooter Super Time Force, the suffocatingly oppressive top-down soulslike Below, and the color-matching puzzler Grindstone, which became an instant hit on Apple Arcade thanks to its moreish loop and high-octane animation. The studio is now turning its gaze to Battle Vision Network, a spiritual successor to Might & Magic: Clash of Heroes, a game that first came out on the DS in 2009 before migrating to other platforms.
