Fight The Dragon - Preview @ Strategy Informer

Strategy Informer reviews the Early Access version of Fight The Dragon.

If there’s a single upside to the recent deluge of unfinished titles flooding Steam’s Early Access, it’s getting the chance to see a game flourish and change its form under the weight of community feedback and fluctuating developer aspirations. It’s a peek under the hood that we rarely get to see on this side of the fence, with titles as diverse as Prison Architect, Project CARS and even the much-maligned Peter Molyneux joint GODUS all benefiting to various extents from pre-release attention.

Fight the Dragon is hoping to ride a similar wave. The developer is billing it as a small-scale hack-and-slash 3D action game played from a rotatable Gauntlet-style overhead perspective, with the main twist coming in the form of a suite of creation tools that should allow end-users to create their own worlds and adventures, eventually releasing them to an in-game content library that everybody can access. A LittleBigPlanet for the Diablo world then - although hopefully filled with fewer virtual dongs.
