Old Skull Games announced during the PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted event their new rougelite game Cryptical Path. It pioneered a new genre as the first rogue-builder, giving you the chance to express your creativity through countless possibilities. Make your way through carefully selected rooms and shape an adventure that reflects your unique style and strategy.
Thrown into an incomplete dungeon with a boss marked on the other side of a mostly empty map, your mission is to gradually create a path forward, and by going through a series of semi-procedurally generated rooms, you'll earn currency to buy new rooms to place until you reach your destination.
You could make it straight to the boss quickly, but you risk missing out on looting scattered around the rooms that contain various items. These are typical bonuses that increase damage, healing chances, and provide bonus stats for collecting a certain amount of gold, i.e. reward you for exploring.
All of this has the purpose of reducing the randomness of each playthrough, and seems like a significant departure from the kind of procedural generation that roguelites often use to freshen up playthroughs. However, certain elements are still present: the dungeon map changes every time, as does the arrangement of enemies and items.
The game is decorated with 2D side-scrolling graphics and a dynamic character that can dodge, run and attack very quickly. Although developer Old Skull Games has not announced a release date, you can play the demo of this game at Steam.
