Hear ye, hear ye, the Steam Awards are yet again upon us! To that end we've set off to do battle for the most important title there is (in-our-honest-opinion) - the "Better with friends" award!
There are plenty of games that you can enjoy by your lonesome, but for Bossgard multiplayer is where it's at! After all, there's nothing like crushing your friends with a giant slice of bread. And there's nothing like being the last man standing in your 5-man Viking team who miraculously revives everybody back into fighting condition, only to see the tide of battle turn to your favor. Glorious.
That's what Bossgard is all about - great tales of even greater heroism! Heroes fighting against all odds, legendary gloating villains that take great pleasure in crushing the meek, that one godly sword slash landed in the nick of time which inevitably wins the match.
Bossgard was designed for this. But hey, maybe Bossgard is a novel concept for you, so here's a breakdown:
- Bossgard is a 5v1 multiplayer boss battler where heroic Vikings face off against ridiculous titans known as Bosses.
- Play the Boss and be the one to pound your friends and foes into the ground with an arsenal of epic powers.
- Play one of the Vikings and work together in a party of heroes, each with their own powers.
- Deploy turrets, command pets, raise the Undead and crush your enemies with staggering mighty blows.
- Play as a giant slice of toast, an oversized plunger, a long-legged Viking huntress or a century-old babushka necromancer.
- Play online, locally or both alongside your best friends in 2v1, 3v1, 4v1 and 5v1 matches.
- Customize your Viking with sexy cosmetic gear to set your character apart from the rest.
- Go Viking against Viking and fight a battle where the odds are even.
Bossgard is like a super tight dose of boss-crushing action delivered in one hit. It's meant to be played with friends. It's meant to make you gloat. It's made to make you grit your teeth. It's made to have you shout in joy as you face off against insurmountable odds.
It's better with friends. If you don't believe us, enjoy the 20% off and see for yourself. Yeah, that's right, we're so cocky we'll throw in a discount to prove our point. That's the Viking way. And the cyclopean-bread way.
Jokes aside, we're glad to have you here and hope to see you in-game!
Lovingly,
The Sand Sailors
