Indierpgs has a new article on a new tablet & android ARPG called Isle of Bxnes.




Whalenought Studios writes in to announce that they are working on a new caveman-themed action RPG called Isle of Bxnes (pronounced like “Isle of Bones.”)

Isle of Bxnes is the brutal adventure of a caveman’s odyssey though savage islands where he hunts, collects supplies and grows his tribe while following a mysterious guide. The player uses a combination of attacks, dodges, and voodoo traps to navigate the largely hostile islands on his journey. At the same time, he’s upgrading his raft, increasing his offspring that will replace him as you die, and collecting relics for his totem.

This game sports a variety of roguelike features, plus locational damage and the increasingly common (but in my opinion, still really cool) mechanic of trying again as your progeny after your character dies:

  • Permadeath
  • Reincarnation through your sons (who have randomly chosen skills, attack dmg and stamina)
  • Variety of enemies, non-hostiles, missions and bosses
  • Skill tree with 27 skills
  • A health system divided by body parts
Isle of Bxnes is being developed for iPhones, iPads and Android devices

Ive always wanted a prehistoric game. There was that "wildman" game, which was canceled unfortunately, but otherwise caveman games are slim pickins.

Why doesnt anyone explore the prehistoric setting?

Oh god, this game graphically looks like shit
