Description
Eradicate legendary monsters to allow Columbus the discovery of the New World.
Here Be Dragons is a satirical turn-based strategy game featuring unique "living map" graphics, where you lead a group of crazed captains and eradicate legendary monsters in order to allow Christopher Columbus the discovery of the New World.
STORY
Christopher Columbus discovered the Americas in 1492. In 10 weeks. With 100 men. With 3 ships. This is a LIE!
Firstly, someone had to defeat kraken and tritons. Someone had to vanquish the Leviathan. Someone had to banish all the ghost ships. The information about these deeds is missing from the archives, and you can’t find it in any great statesmen’s memoir. The knowledge of the “Avant Armada” was completely erased by some bloody officials.
The people who took part in the expeditions were not sane people. Maniacs, psychos and common crackpots were forced by royal orders to eradicate Evil in the uncharted seas. “Here Be Dragons” describes these events.
GAMEPLAY
* Use original Dice Activation System to attack enemies, heal your crew, and upgrade the fleet.
* Collect and use Command Points to turn the tide of the encounter.
* Cross the seas with an ancient, living map, full of terrible creatures that want to devour you!
* Confront the most fierce beasts that ever lived: leviathans and krakens, predatory whales and lustful mermaids. Decimate tritons, awake Dagon, and then erase them from human memory.
SATIRE
* Meet an extraordinary company of weirdos, madmen and oddballs. Their vices and virtues fuel the journey.
* Experience clashes with bureaucratic machine. Don’t lose your mind when confronted by absurdities spewed by authorities and royal advisors.
* Sniff at pirates. Ignore the settlers. You are above them. You are a monster hunter traversing through the aqua incognita. Who cares if you are insane?
Ratings and Reviews
Great Everything But Too Hard Don’t Buy
The premise, the humour and graphics are spot on but this game is just not for the casual player. I get the dice mechanics, got to the last Hydra battle. Admittedly by switching to “fun” + relying on damaging monsters by taking their usable dice and luck to even get that far. Lost over ten times. Played it for hours. Eventually decided it was my ship upgrades and restarted the whole thing. Now I’m doing even worse. How exactly do I get two ships 12-14 health 1-2 defence/attack past 15 health 5 defence worms that can take me out in two salvos/actions? (There’s literally nowhere else to ask this question bc zero walkthrough or forums past the tute)
So I reckon it’s a gamer’s game. Running stats in your head. Having the right build to match a play style.
Because if you aren’t you really need heftier upgrades or an extra boat by the regenerating and action blocking mermaids battle to enjoy it if you’re a normal person looking to pass the time and have a laugh.
And that’s like a third of the way through.
I REALLY wish I could still get my money back. I was too willing to buy just because of the total lack of new games post covid.
