Mini Review: Trying to escape a horror filled castle is still fun
Atic Atac manages to do a lot of things that kinda make this game fit in to the rogue lite category of games. The first fact that points in that direction is that the items placed in the castle are always randomized While searching through the castle the player must fend off enemies using a Ax/Dagger/Magic Missile depending on which class is picked at the beginning of the game. Other than the weapon looking differently they all act the same way. But the class also lets the player use different shortcuts in the castle to get around a bit faster. Using these tools along with figuring out the different weaknesses of boss monsters is key to surviving to escape. Out of the ZX Spectum games I've played so far this one held up better than I expected. . Desperately searching through a dark castle while battling a horde of monsters still holds up in my eyes.
