Zombies with a side of ranch shitter!
If you’re longing to get your ass handed to you over and over, check out Stoneshard by Ink Stains. The game is still being developed so enjoy getting absolutely facerolled by death again and again, and while you’re at it, take a moment to appreciate these quaint shitters that have lids!
Osbrook is the starter town where you’ll find yourself waking up in a daze from your load game after dying to basically anything and everything relatively quickly. This is where I found these epic ranch shitters. The first is on the outer part of town, the second is right in the heart of the only place you probably can’t die in the entire game. I say probably because I haven’t advanced quite far enough to find out if I can in fact die in Osbrook. I’m going to say yeah that likely does become a thing you can do later on in the game. I’m certainly looking forward to finding out!
Other things you can do while playing Stoneshard: Scrapping just enough cash to “sleep in the inn” aka save your game; barely avoiding starvation by making terrible food from whatever you can find on the ground; watching your arrows miss what’s is directly in front of your face; having just enough daylight to explore 1 square of map. If that pace of near-death appeals to you I’d recommend it. It’s maybe the only game I’ve ever played where you just straight up die in the tutorial.
If you see more Stoneshard posts, it means I have survived long enough to find another shitter! Rub your soapy lil hands together in hopes that I am successful.
