"It starts out with a massive hand controlling the activity of a medieval-ish town, constructing buildings and tools, guiding the residents in their daily tasks, and even chucking them around like ragdolls for fun. It's exactly the kind of thing you might see in a god game like Black and White, though seemingly with a lot more depth to how much influence you have over the town and its people."
"But the Big Hand, as the trailer's narrator matter-of-factly refers to it, can also possess townsfolk, turning it into something that looks a lot more like Fable. While possessing a person (or even an animal), you shift to a third-person point of view where you can set off on quests to uncover secrets and presumably earn rewards that will help the town prosper."
Masters of Albion releases on April 22 as a modern god game that blends RPG and strategy. A massive Big Hand directly controls a medieval-style town, building structures and tools, guiding residents' daily tasks and treating them like ragdolls. The Big Hand can possess people or animals, shifting gameplay to a third-person perspective that enables quests to uncover secrets and earn rewards that improve the town. The design evokes elements of classic titles such as Black and White and Fable while expanding player influence and depth. At night the town faces attacks from zombies and walking skeletons that threaten buildings and inhabitants.
