The Story Of Doodle Jump: Brotherly Love And Digital Snacks Ah, Operation Darkness. A tactical RPG set in WWII. But with vampires and werewolves. Last time we saw it, I was getting a little down on it. The fact they were pretty rough trailers may have contributed. But this? This has revived my flagging spirits. Mostly because it’s as cheesy as a triple-cheese sandwich with cheese for bread. And I do like cheese.
What, just the promise of WW2, Nazis, vampires and werewolves all in one game wasn’t enough for you? Fine. Here’s a couple of character-specific trailers. The one above’s for Vlado, who is – what else – a Nazi vampire. After the jump’s one for Camilla. A Nazi in need of a good and proper reminding of what is and what is not appropriate battlefield attire.
Do you know what Operation Darkness is? It’s a Japanese game. RPG/small-squad tactics hybrid. Set in WWII. But more interesting than your presumptions would have you believe, because along with regular Nazis, there are zombie Nazis, zombies, werewolves and mecha Nazis. The game’s eventually, sometime down the line seeing a Western release, but in the meantime, you can make do (if you can) with grabbing the demo off the Japanese marketplace, because it’s got English subtitles, and you all speak English, right?
