This is a game no one ever could see coming.  A spiritual successor to the best pinball game ever, <b>Devil&#8217;s Crush<\/b>?  Throwback music?  Three-panel high table?  The woman&#8217;s face?  Explosions, pentagrams, demons???  What is going on right now?<\/p>\n<p>But yet it is around!  Only in early access right now, this is the game I never knew I wanted.  A 21st-century update to one of my favorite videogames of all time.  It&#8217;s strange, because at first glance, it doesn&#8217;t look like a suitable visual follow-up.  But as you get going, the board is just crazy: bullets bursting, demons exploding, fires raging, shit flying everywhere.  I never got around to crowning a best game of 2019, but this is clearly my choice for this year.  (I know, it&#8217;s only two weeks in).  <\/p>\n<p>Photos don&#8217;t do this game justice.  Videos don&#8217;t either.  You need to play&#8230;figure out the mechanics, see what&#8217;s going on &#8211; sometimes you can&#8217;t &#8211; and just absorb it.  Man, this is so awesome.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/slateman.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20200114002633_1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/slateman.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20200114002633_1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"253\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3442\" srcset=\"https:\/\/slateman.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20200114002633_1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/slateman.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20200114002633_1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/slateman.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20200114002633_1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/slateman.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20200114002633_1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/slateman.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/20200114002633_1.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I don&#8217;t even know what to say.
