Some of the creatures will easily show up, but others, particularly the reaching hands that indicate where a new enemy is going to spawn in, can easily blend into the background. The problem it presents is that the visual clues of a battleground aren’t always immediately obvious. Built entirely in a black and white, film noir comic style, with red highlights the only colour to be seen, it’s not exactly a new idea – Sin City and Hellboy did this kind of thing years ago – but that doesn’t make it any less striking. It’s certainly stylish, there’s no doubt about that. It’s a great visual indicator of what’s happening on screen, and of what effects you’re going to cause, though it’s a shame that tactically the visuals otherwise don’t serve to provide you with the information you need. Interrupt Skills meanwhile prepare your character to counterattack, while some skills can push your enemies back along the Timeline, buying you more time. You have Delayed skills which force you to wait a set amount of time to activate, with the payoff being that they’re then very powerful. Here in Othercide, each character has 100 Action Points, and you spend them moving around the grid-based levels or using one of the many skills at your disposal.Ĭareful control of the Timeline is often the key to winning battles. Just as with any number of RPGs, most notably the Grandia series, the Timeline flows along, and dictates which character will take action next.

Your prowess in combat will decide the fate of your Daughters, shape their abilities and personality.
