Inkulinati is a title that Yaza Games was kind enough to toss me a copy of to review. Huge shout out to them for that.
Inkulinati is a turn based strategy game with an interesting and creative art style. The fun thing about the art style however is it plays directly into the game itself. You control creatures that are drawn onto the pages of a book.
This actually works fairly well, with your creatures being able to collect drops of ink on the book to help create more creatures. These creatures range from rabbits to donkeys and everything in between.
Each creature has its own set of moves,for example the rabbit can essentially fart on people and make them go to sleep. Another more religious character does extra damage to heretics, these are creatures that have attacked them.
The sound is pretty solid as well, nothing to write home about but it does it’s job very well and that’s all that is really needed anyway.
As for the game play. Its ok. The tutorial is quite extensive (thankfully) and will take some time to complete. This teaches you basically everything there is to know about the game. This will come in handy since the game isn’t easy. It isn’t hard but it also isn’t easy. It also wasn’t very interesting to me but I understand why it would be for many.
I don’t have any real problems with the game,never ran into any sort of bugs or glitches or anything of that sort. I just didn’t find the game fun, despite the humor in the game play. Its a solid 8/10 however, and fans of games like this will want to pick it up or play it on gamepass. Best wishes and may the Gaming gods bring you glory.
