There is something immediately appealing about Wanderburg. I have played my fair share of indie roguelikes, survival games, strategy experiments, and Early Access projects over the years, and every now and then a game comes along with a concept that makes you stop scrolling and think, “Okay, that is different.” Wanderburg is one of those…
There are moments when a game comes along and immediately makes me think, “Okay, this is actually something I haven’t played before.” After spending time with Wanderburg, that was pretty much my reaction. The roguelike and bullet heaven market is absolutely packed right now. Since Vampire Survivors turned the survivors-like formula into one of gaming’s…
Wanderburg is one of those indie games that immediately makes me stop scrolling through my Steam library and think, okay, this is weird enough that I need to play it. A medieval castle rolling across the landscape, collecting resources, adding weapons, fighting other mobile fortresses and dealing with a world that constantly changes around it?…
If there is one mechanic that makes Wanderburg stand out from the usual roguelike crowd, it is the way your castle physically grows as you play. You are not simply unlocking bigger numbers on a character sheet or buying another passive upgrade from a menu. Your fortress gets larger, heavier, more dangerous, and harder to…
If you have just started playing Wanderburg, there is a good chance your first few runs felt like controlled chaos. You are driving a gigantic medieval castle on wheels, smashing through villages, collecting resources, bolting weapons onto the structure, and trying not to get turned into a pile of burning bricks by enemy fortresses. It…
Wanderburg is the kind of game that makes you feel like someone gave a medieval fortress an engine, a mountain of weapons, and absolutely no regard for road safety. Developed by Randwerk and published by Sidekick Publishing, this unusual roguelike turns the traditional tower-defense formula into something far more aggressive. Instead of sitting behind static…
Wanderburg looks deceptively simple at first. You have a castle on wheels, a handful of weapons, some unfortunate villages in your path, and a battlefield that seems designed to turn your carefully built fortress into scrap metal. After spending enough time with the game, though, you quickly realize that building the biggest possible castle is…
If there is one indie game that has managed to make me stop scrolling through showcase announcements and actually pay attention, it is Wanderburg. The premise sounds ridiculous in the best possible way: giant medieval castles mounted on wheels, roaming across hostile landscapes, smashing settlements apart, stealing resources, building increasingly absurd weapons, and fighting other…
If you have been watching the indie scene lately, Wanderburg is one of those games that is almost impossible to forget after seeing it in action. The idea alone sounds ridiculous in the best possible way: enormous castles mounted on wheels, roaming across a strange minimalist world, smashing through structures, hunting enemies, and gradually turning…
There is something wonderfully stupid about Fell & Sell. You go into a dungeon expecting to become a legendary monster-slaying hero, come back covered in blood with a backpack full of junk, and then spend the next few minutes worrying about shelf placement and whether you charged enough for a sword. That contrast is exactly…
