But, most of the enemies in the same dungeon have the same passive. And the monsters don’t really feel unique they each have a couple special passives that make it more difficult to interact with. There are only 3 different dungeons available, each with a unique difficulty mechanic. But from a roguelite perspective, it is a little disappointing. For a puzzle game, this is beneficial to consistency and challenge. However, I found the variety between dungeons, monsters, and items lacking. Personally, I enjoyed the nomad the most, and I believe there’s a character for every person to enjoy. There’s even a Japanese character with cards based on shogi pieces, which I thought was a great idea. Each has a mostly unique take on chess, with certain passives and different moves available. So far there are six characters in Pawnbarians. Having different characters to play, different enemies to slay, different items to build, they’re important to me to spice up the gameplay. Something I frequently look for in roguelites is variety between runs. I think these two are actually quite important for a puzzle game you spend a lot of time stopping to think, so having those two elements in the background is important to do well. The music was fitting, sometimes a little ominous, which was good. The sound effects were great, they added to the experience of killing multiple enemies at a time. Movements were smooth, user experience polished, overall very calm and simple aesthetic. Visually, the graphics accomplish everything they need to. And I even found it fun to fail when I brashly burst into a group of enemies forgetting I have no way out and succumbing to damage was actually quite funny.
GAMES LIKE PAWNBARIAN CODE
I would find myself cussing and jeering at the enemies who are nothing more than lines of code after making a good play. Landing multi kills with one more or barely avoiding damage through careful feats of thinking is incredible. If the rest of the game is great, but the puzzles are boring, then why play? Pawnbarian is incredibly fun to solve. Satisfying Solutionsīluntly put, the fun of puzzle games comes from solving the puzzles. Beat all seven levels of a dungeon to complete the dungeon and gain access to higher difficulties.
GAMES LIKE PAWNBARIAN UPGRADE
Landing on an enemy will defeat them and give you gold, which you can spend to upgrade your cards. Your character is a piece on a chess board, and you play cards which represent chess pieces and move your character around.
Pawnbarian is a chess-based puzzle roguelite. It’s developed and published by Jan Wojtecki (“j4nw”) with visual and aural input by Piotr Wojtecki and Aleksander Zablocki respectively.
This is an extension of my short YouTube review.
GAMES LIKE PAWNBARIAN MOVIE
Okay, remember in the first Harry Potter movie when Ron and Harry are playing wizard chess and Hermione calls the game barbaric? This is a crazy connection, but I feel like there has to be some unintentional wordplay allusion with the title “ Pawnbarian” here.
