The developers of the isometric Roguelike Exchen Windblown released a large Sanctuary update, which brought with them a lot of new content. A new biom, enemies, weapons and much more were added to the game.
In the update, players can go to the new Sanctuary bioma, which is a gloomy zone, access to which opens after completing a task from a character named Carlos, who appears at the end of the Factory biom. After fulfilling his assignment, the players will have a choice between sending to Rat Village and a new zone. SANCTYARY not only represents a new landscape and enemies, but also opens the first plot elements that allow Windblown to plunge deeper into the world and mythology.
BIOM contains a number of new opponents, including five types of Sentinels – from drones to casters, as well as their enhanced versions. Among other things, players will face lasers, bombs, electric attacks and attending enemies. A new boss also appeared, which will become a serious test even for experienced players.
Four new types of weapons, such as Sharp Sisters double blades, a bulky Elder Blade with a destructive effect, laser Sentinel Wings, and an extraordinary Fishing Rod, suitable for wide attacks, have been added to the arsenal. In addition, a new Chrono Catcher talisman has appeared, creating a delay zone and affecting enemy shells.
In addition, two new enemies were introduced for Fungal Swamp and Rat Village, the new appearance of the Obsidian Axolotl and a number of improvements based on the wishes of the community: extended accessibility settings, the ability to hide the interface and new improvements to the Eperin location, such as increasing the assortment of stores and access to training facilities.
A serious change was the processing of Magifish recovery mechanics – now the restoration is due to damage, and not by the timer. A new system of returning lost resources also appeared – if the player manages to get to the place of his previous death, then he will be able to return the lost objects. Otherwise, they will disappear.
Finally, the renewal affected the Revenge mode, in which the energy scale appeared. With her exhaustion, the character dies, but with successful attacks, the scale is replenished, and in the case of full filling, the allies are being revived. In addition, a “protection against failure” system was introduced to obtain rare objects from Encrypted Memories, which avoids excessive farm.
