Howl

When you occur to be a medieval monk illustrator trapped within the physique of a contemporary videogames fanatic, you would possibly like Howl, a turn-based technique sport from Lion Track and Flower Collectors studio Mi’pu’mi Video games. It’s powered by what the builders are calling “dwelling ink”, an artwork fashion that fills in every papery map as you play.

The sport definitely appears arresting: your cursor is a quill, the HUD is a set of smaller parchment scraps, and the terrain is a slowly brightening wash of swirling colors, leaking past the outlines of timber and buildings. Pretty stuff. And what’s extra, you get to beat up a bunch of wolves.
