I'm freshly dead and being bugged by a necromancer, but I can't help but repeatedly stand among the skulls and debris and say the same thing over and over again. Horny. Horny. Horny. Horny. In a game where I'm required to type my way through a scraggly noir dungeon, I'm suddenly adopting the comedic intelligence of a teenage boy. Without thinking, my fingers skate across my keyboard to pen a real banger: Poop. The necromancer emerges, cloaking my entire screen and proceeds to monologue about my choice of language. Just the reaction my silly little goblin brain wanted.
Cryptmaster has easily been one of my favourite demos from this week's Steam Next Fest. It's a dungeon crawler where I command a party of four who've forgotten just about everything. But thanks to the power of the alphabet, I can slowly help each member regain memories of who they were and what they were good at, like one party member who can stab people or another who can yell real loud.
