Indie.io Games Shine at Steam Next Fest
Steam's Next Fest is back, and indie game publisher indie.io is making a big splash with a record-breaking 25 titles available to demo. The festival, running until June 16th, offers something for everyone, from classic RPGs to quirky beat-em-ups. Let's take a look at some standout titles.
Action RPG Adventures
Shrine's Legacy throws players back to the 16-bit era with its charming action RPG. Embark on a quest to save Ardemia, collecting elemental gems and wielding the legendary Sword of the Shrine. Enjoy the journey solo or with a friend in couch co-op.
Mythrealm transports players to a fantasy world as Alaris, an adventurer summoned to fight demons and rescue missing wizards. Choose your path – warrior, archer, or mage – and explore a richly detailed world filled with platforming challenges and hidden treasures.
Unique Gameplay Experiences
Troublemaker 2: Beyond Dream is an open-world action-comedy beat 'em up unlike any other. Explore South Jayakarta, engage in street brawls, complete side quests (including one where you become a cow!), and enjoy rhythm-based minigames at the music studio.
Don't Die, Collect Loot is exactly what the title suggests: a chaotic, bullet-hell roguelite RPG. Choose from three classes, each with unique skills and abilities. The demo introduces an exclusive superboss and items only available during Next Fest.
Spellcasting and Brawling
Aris Arcanum places players in a Victorian-era spellcraft roguelite. Unravel the mystery of a corrupted library, battling twisted scholars and cosmic horrors. Craft unique spells and experiment with different builds in this atmospheric game.
Heroes of Mount Dragon offers a side-scrolling brawler experience with a twist – dragon transformations! Team up with friends in couch co-op or online, utilize unique hero abilities, and unleash powerful dragon forms to conquer four kingdoms. The demo includes four playable heroes and half the first kingdom to explore.
With so many demos available, this Next Fest is a great opportunity to discover your next favorite indie game. Don't miss out on the action!
