While many fell victim to the sinister shadows in the past, you have something they don\u2019t: a knack for shapeshifting.<\/p>\n<p>Coridden follows a family of warriors who become the enemies they defeat \u2013 any enemy. If you can fight it, you can be it. Developer Aftnareld crafted every battle so you can approach it however you wish, whether you\u2019re a formidable magic monster or a plain ol\u2019 human. Coridden lets you nurture or neglect your human and monster skills as you see fit to create a unique playstyle all your own, combining abilities, making new weapons, and pulling off wild experimental combos in tense, real-time battles.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s a lot going on at any moment, but if it all gets too much for one person, you can team up with friends for four-player co-op.<\/p>\n<p>Shapeshifting gives you an edge outside of combat as well. Monsters come in all forms and specialties, and some grant you new skills to reach hidden areas and solve challenging puzzles. You can shapeshift at any point during battle or exploration and forge your own path through the darkness \u2013 assuming it doesn\u2019t consume you first.<\/p>\n<p>Features<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Monster merging \u2013 Become the foes you defeat, using their mighty powers to explore the world and outwit your devious foes<\/li>\n<li>A family affair \u2013 Play as one of four siblings, whose unique personalities influence how you view Heera and relate to the people who call it home<\/li>\n<li>Flexible fights \u2013 Every battle is a puzzle that you decide the solution for<\/li>\n<li>All for one \u2013 Go it alone or team up with three friends in multiplayer co-op<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>About Aftnareld<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The project that we now call Coridden, started with a simple idea: an interactive co-op moment where one player is steering and attacking as a fierce beast, the other riding on the beast&#8217;s back and shooting enemies around them. As we spent more and more time on this idea, and the ambition grew, we decided to officially start the Aftnareld studio in 2018 and shift our game-development hobby to a professional level.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Anshar Publishing<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Anshar Publishing focuses on providing comprehensive marketing and publishing services for PC and console games.
