Cast of the Seven Godsends bring the exact feel of a few arcade quarter-munchers to the PC. You play as a grand king and hero. Giant champions of evil have taken your child and you must rescue them. Fortunately the Gods are on your side and have sent you a variety of incredible powers which act as your armor and weapon. Standard stuff for arcade games like this.
Perhaps the strongest point of the game is the fact that it has many different, varied enemy types.
Ghosts and Sevens
If you ever played classic Ghosts N’ Goblins you understand the basic concept of this game. Enemies assault you constantly while you attempt to maintain your power-ups. It’s a bit more forgiving than the older games but still has the same speed and excitement.
Every attack from your powered-up “Godsend” form has a similarly impressive effect to go with it.
Cast of the Seven Godsends and Unique Art
What sets it apart from those much older games is a large amount of polish in the art style. There are several enemies on each stage and all your “godsend” power-ups have a unique look to them. It’s perfect for those who want the classics with a bit more color and sophistication.
Give the developers feedback and perhaps even suggest new forms for the hero as well.
Retro Style, Modern Interaction
The developers want to hear from their fans on the game once everything is out. So you can get the best of both worlds here; old-style action and new developer interaction.
From the enemies to the special abilities everything is bigger in this game.
Getting the Godsends
From what we’ve played so far this game has some excellent potential. A demo of the game is out right now so feel free to try it. Those who enjoy it can get it for $5.59 USD while the game is still on sale and it will be released on July 17th.
