Thane’s the name. Acquiring scepters is my game.
It was over two years ago when Aussie developer League of Geeks wowed us with a gameplay-free and yet completely captivating trailer for their anthropomorphic fantasy board game, Armello. Since then, screenshots were trickled out sporadically with updates culminating in a new Kickstarter this spring that ended up dumping more than $300K into LoG’s coffers and opening up Armello to both Android and Windows tablets.
On Saturday, LoG had another major announcement: beta begins this week. This is great news for backers of the Kickstarter project, as they’ll have access to the beta as soon as it pops up. For everyone else it’s good news as well, because it means we’re that much closer to release which, at this point, is still estimated for March of 2015. The beta will only be available for PC on Steam, however, so even the Kickstarter backers have to wait to play Armello on their iPads.
After the break, some footage of the alpha version to give you an idea of what Armello brings to the table.
