ABOUT THE GAME:
Ritual: Crown of Horns is a slaughterhouse – a fast-paced action game set in an alternate Wild West, a demonic version of a hellish frontier. This arcade-inspired title tells the tale of an unlikely duo: a bounty hunter who comes back from beyond the grave, yearning to exact revenge on his killers, and a witch who aids him with a series of powerful rituals to further her agenda.
Push back hordes of enemies while the witch performs her ritual. Take advantage of your entire arsenal, mindfully swapping between weapons and spells. Unlock new tools and powerful items to improve your character. Travel throughout the Weird West, picking missions and planning future unlocks to finally exact your revenge!
Ritual: Crown of Horns is a skill-based game where split-second decisions and thinking on the fly are more effective than button mashing and mindlessly throwing yourself at enemies.
RITUAL: CROWN OF HORNS MAIN FEATURES:
- A unique auto-aim system that distinctly sets itself apart from your average twin-stick shooters: instead of spraying and praying, you are an elite gunslinger who makes every shot count.
- A satisfying arsenal: shotguns, six-shooters, rifles, crossbows, and a few surprises that are less era-appropriate.
- Outrageous enemies: brainwashed cultists, legendary supernatural creatures, bizarre murderous contraptions – you name it.
- Gear: mysterious capes, hoods, and amulets that you can customize to receive powerful character buffs.
- Creative spells and power-ups that can violently alter the way you approach each combat encounter.
- Plenty of insane levels to master, each complete with unique challenges tailored to push the combat system to its limits.
- A unique gothic-horror-meets-weird-western art style.
Ritual: Crown of Horns is set to release on Steam and Nintendo Switch on November 7th. The game is already in the Early Access stage on Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1059150/Ritual_Crown_of_Horns/).
