NeocoreGames have announced that Deathtrap, a spin-off title of their The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing series is now available worldwide for $19.99 on Steam with 10% off to celebrate the first week of its release.
Deathtrap invites players to venture beyond the veil of this world, where a chain of strongholds were once built to keep the horrors of the void at bay. Now that the monsters are returning from the depths to conquer and kill, players will take direct control of either the Sorceress, the Mercenary, or the Marksman and rebuild/improve the ancient traps to stop the monsters before they break through to the everyday world.
Deathtrap features 4 gameplay modes (PvP, Endless, Single Player, and Cooperative Campaign), 5 scenarios, 13 different campaign maps on Tiers 1-4, a built-in map editor, 3 classes, 25 basic traps, 15 special traps and 40+ enemy types from 3 monster races.
Zoltán "Pozs" Pozsonyi, Producer of Deathtrap, said: "I’m very proud of the final game and the fine work the team at NeocoreGames did on Deathtrap. Our goal was to push the tower defense genre forward with a unique gameplay mechanic that allows players to build a deadly maze of traps and towers while controlling a character directly from the traditional top-down view of an action-RPG. We estimate a solid 50+ hours of gameplay and we'd like to encourage the community to keep creating their own custom maps too, we might pick the best and add it as an extra scenario or PvP map later."
Deathtrap is a tower defense game with strong action-RPG elements, a game of vicious tricks, killing machines, rotating blades, and splattering blood.
