Vaporum from Fatbot Games

Single player, First Person, Steampunk style, grid-based, RPG, dungeon crawler.

You start at the base of a tower in an Exoskeleton Rig and work your way up to the top, floor by floor. Each level of the tower and has its own challenges, puzzles, secrets, and enemies. As you advance through the game and gain xp by killing enemies you get to level up your Rig with different powers and abilities.

You gain your weapons, ammo, and abilities by looting while exploring the maps and killing the enemies. Each floor introduces new enemy types and variations of previously known enemy types scaling the difficulty up as you progress and become stronger yourself.

The puzzles are challenging and sometimes frustrating and become very satisfying to solve.

The controls are good but have a few issues that take a little bit of time to get used to. The atmosphere and audio are great and really capture that Steampunk feel.

Overall, the game is both frustrating and enjoyable. You may want to use a guide to help with the secrets and puzzles.
