The Anacrusis

Mechanics

In The Anacrusis we observe the action from first person perspective (FPP). During the game we fight off bigger and more powerful hordes of enemies. On our way there are both regular opponents, who attack in mass quantities, and much stronger than them bosses. We eliminate enemies, making use of an extensive, futuristic arsenal. Apart from various guns we have useful gadgets at our disposal, such as shield grenade which provides temporary protection or Respawner which allows to resurrect fallen allies. During the game we also gain various perks that give us additional advantage on the battlefield.

A special system (AI Driver) supervises the gameplay; its goal is to ensure the appropriate level of challenge regardless of the players' skills and to make each game look different. It analyzes our style of play and, based on the information obtained, places enemies on the map and disperses weapons, gadgets and first aid kits, as well as directs the actions of the bosses. What's more, if we play with people who have made less progress in the story than us, it makes sure that they do not encounter spoilers.

Game modes

Although The Anacrusis allows you to play solo, the title spreads its wings in cooperative mode, where up to four people can play (thanks to the cross-platform feature - regardless of the platform you own).

Technical aspects

The Anacrusis has colorful graphics kept in a style that brings to mind science fiction movies from the early second half of the 20th century.
