Sin Slayers

May 8th saw the release of Sin Slayers: Enhanced Edition for Xbox One console. The game reinterprets the classic dark fantasy adventure in an ironic way. It combines dark plot with funny dialogues. Frightening atmosphere becomes funny thanks to stylized pixel graphics.

Sin Slayers is stylized as a grim RPG about adventures in the afterlife. The player need to assemble, equip and lead a team of heroes with unique strengths and weaknesses that will determine the strategy of battle. To save yourself, you will have to defeat seven lords of deadly sins. Players can expect turn-based battles, random generation of locations in the best traditions of Roguelite genre and the individual difficulty of each playthrough.

Developers tried to collect all possible clichés of the genre and turn them into a joke. Heroes instantly become chosen and go to fight not with ordinary demons, but with the Sinlords, embodiment of deadly sins. Stylized pixel graphics emphasize the cheerful atmosphere of hapless adventures, in which dark tones contrast with rich vivid colors.
