‘If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ is a decent enough motto to live by. Crackshell would most likely agree, having found a respectable degree of success with Gauntlet-esque co-op arcade dungeon crawler Hammerwatch, and more Smash TV-ish licensed spinoff Serious Sam’s Bogus Detour.
While their little trip through techno-magical Egypt with Serious Sam was an amusing enough romp, they’re back doing what they know and love, with a bit of a modern procedurally generated twist. Heroes of Hammerwatch bills itself as a rogue-like spin on the original, and it’s out today.
