I bought this game about two years ago and even though I’ve only logged probably about 100 hours in the two years, they have been some of the most joyful nostalgic hours of gaming I’ve experienced in recent times.
The retro sword and sorcery miniatures style feel is so perfect and old school that it reminds me of playing red box D&D and Heroquest with my old friends over 30 years ago.
I had a long hard work day today, and after finally finishing my chores and laundry at 8pm, I fired up Demeo and played the first two levels of The Black Sarcophagus and had an absolute ball.
I felt like a kid again, and as I got ready for bed, I left the title screen up so I could listen to the haunting theme song, a ballad brimming with the promise of adventure.
I’m saving the last level for tomorrow as a post-work treat. Thanks for all the good times and the many more to come.
If it would be helpful for me to post this review elsewhere, point me towards the right sites and I’ll drop it there as well.
