Today Thing Trunk announced a new, revolutionary feature in Book of Demons, their upcoming hack & slash – now the time in the game moves only when you move! In accordance with the generally accepted best practice, “good artists copy, great artists steal” the feature will work exactly the same way as in the super-selling, super-reviewed, super-fun and super-hot game SUPERHOT! Only this time in a hack & slash!
The new, ground-breaking functionality was officially endorsed by SUPERHOT Main Designer – Piotr Iwanicki: “A SUPERHOT hack and slash is exactly what the world needed, I really have to see it in action!”.
Maciej Biedrzycki, Book of Demons Chief Game Architect said: “We already borrowed the dungeons from Diablo, cards from Microsoft Solitaire and paper graphics from Paper Mario. Today we borrow time from SUPERHOT. Who knows from whom will we steal… ekhm, borrow next?”.
Tom Tomaszewski, Book of Demons Global Brand Manager, also chimed in: “After Book of Demons was announced, the media coverage was terrible. Only a few blogs like Rock, Paper, Shotgun and Game Informer wrote about us – we’re desperate for media attention! One of my first decisions as Book of Demons Global Brand Manager was to make the game SUPER HOT. There’s clearly no better way of doing this, than stealing SUPERHOT’s main gameplay mechanic! Repeat after me: Book of Demons is SUPER HOT! SUPER HOT! SUPER HOT!”.
Book of Demons is a fantasy hack & slash game with many twists in the basic gameplay mechanics, paper cut-out graphics, unprecedented accessibility, and a dark theme intertwined with a fair dose of humor any fan of classic games should enjoy.
