Krater is a self-proclaimed Action-Adventure RPG/RTS Indie game influenced by old-school games such as Syndicate (the original, not the FPS remake) and X-COM (again, the original and not the FPS remake). The way I see it, it's essentially old-school Dungeon Siege with the Fallout theme. That's not necessarily a bad thing as Dungeon Siege had a nice party-based, Action-RPG mechanic down and Fallout had a mystic sort of atmosphere in its post-apocalyptic world. Developed by Fatshark, who has experience in the industry already, Krater turned out to be a really nice looking Action-RPG. It's also worth noting the music to the game as it sets a really nice retro mood to the game. The tunes are catchy, yet subtle. There's a lot of characters to choose from, skill based abilities to cycle through (no resource usage it seems), tons of weapons, a hardcore mode for those who want the most challenge out of their experience with the game, and injury states that affect how the characters will act in battle. I'm passing up the featured sale it has right now since I have a decent amount of top-down Action-RPGs at hand already, but this is definitely one game I'm going to get one day. Currently, it's single-player only; however, an online co-op mode is on its way in August.
