RP7 Gameplay Trailer Unveiled
In RP7, storytelling and gameplay take on a new and unexpected form. Instead of character control, you can roll seven random encounter slots to create your character’s unique story. Roll and re-roll each step of your journey as you plan ahead. With one simple mechanic, you’ll experience infinite RPG gameplay and fresh scenarios with each run. Fight monsters, gather gold and treasure, build your loadout, and find your missing pet frog!
“RP7 began with the idea of creating a game that subverts standard controls. If you only look at your fingers, it doesn’t look like you’re playing a game,” said Sun Park, Team Leader and Creative Director of Turtle Cream. “It tears down the familiarity of other dungeon crawler roguelikes and creates a very unfamiliar experience, but it’s a lot of fun when you master it.”
RP7 boasts a unique control method with all inputs done on a single row of your keyboard, stretched out horizontally like the buttons on a slot machine. Your character moves forward automatically, it’s up to you to plan ahead and choose the slots that will have an impact on your character. Choose to fight or defend, heal, or gather useful items as your character charges forward and reacts to your inputs.
