About

Lead an army of gifted female warriors against nightmarish creatures, as they sacrifice everything to push the darkness back. Experience the ultimate tactical challenge in a shattered world behind the mirror of our reality.
Key Features
Breaking the turn-based standard: Introducing the Initiative Sequence(™) system, players will experience a new way to predict enemies' moves and put the perfect plan in place in response. Using interrupts or delayed actions and reactions, players will have to wisely manipulate the sequence order, deciding when to change from defensive play to offensive to overcome their adversaries.
Punitive gameplay: With no cover, no healing and permadeath, players always have tough choices to make and each decision comes with a sacrifice, of resources, or in blood!
Striking art style: Using only black, white and some touches of vivid red, Othercide invites players to dive into an ethereal horror dimension between conscious and unconscious.
Replayability: Survive, protect your ground and defend reality, your task won't be easy, as players' will face ruthless creatures that constantly try to push through breaches into our reality.

Othercide reviews and comments

Great Vibes and cool ideas, just seems like more work than I'm willing to put in
This game drew me in with its beautiful art and drips of story, used me with its repetitive gameplay, then asked me to do it all over again. I was excited to start but after 14 hours nothing has changed. I've lost interest. You shall join the elite ranks of my unfinished games.

Date Dropped: 2020-09-15
Playtime: 14h
Enjoyment: 5/10
Recommendation: No. There's almost no story, just a whole lot of repetition.
