Interdimensional Games announces
CONSORTIUM: The Tower Prophecy, a sequel to
CONSORTIUM, saying
both are part of what will ultimately be a trilogy of tower defense games. Like
the first CONSORTIUM, the sequel will be crowd-funded, as they say we should
expect a Kickstarter at some point after the new year. "We have taken all of the
awesome feedback we've received from CONSORTIUM players over the past year and
applying it directly to the design of the sequel", says iDGi founder Gregory
MacMartin. "The Tower Prophecy is designed to be a stand-alone experience that
will not require the first game to fully enjoy. However, for players that
finished CONSORTIUM, all of their universe statistics, decisions and inventory
will carry over and heavily influence how The Tower Prophecy plays out." Here's
word on the game:
CONSORTIUM: The Tower Prophecy" takes place on December
21st, 2042 in the heart of downtown London. Civilian hostages have been taken by
terrorists with a dubious agenda in the Churchill Tower, a thousand meter high
skyscraper built over the River Thames. Bishop Six (the player) has been tasked
with skydiving in from the Consortium command vessel ZENLIL above the clouds and
rescuing the hostages. Players will soon begin to realize that nothing about the
mission or the situation is what it seems...
