«Avada Kedavra»: A game where you have to cast spells aloud has been released

An unusual new game called YAPYAP is gaining popularity on Steam. This is a cooperative magical horror where gamers take on the roles of wizards, form a squad, and explore a sinister tower, smashing everything in their path. They are aided by spells — the characters have a whole arsenal at their disposal, all of which must be cast by speaking into a microphone, or nothing will work. Let's tell you more about what makes this game from independent studio Maison Bap interesting.

You can form a group of up to six people to infiltrate the enemy tower. You'll definitely need voice chat — it's both a helpful tool for coordinating actions during encounters with monsters and a way to cast magic. Because here, as in the «Harry Potter» universe, the magical phrases you speak aloud are very important. A spoken incantation will allow you to fend off a monster, move or damage any object in the environment, and even help out a teammate in a tough spot. Points are scored based on destruction — the heroes must break as many things as possible in the hostile location's interior.

The squad's arsenal includes a variety of spells: some will lift a flowerpot into the air, while others will make your character levitate. There are pushing, pulling, and concealing charms, as well as teleportation and transformation spells — for example, you can turn a piece of jewelry into a fish. Enunciation carries significant weight in achieving success: those who get too nervous may stumble over their words — and as a result, casting becomes increasingly difficult. It's important to note that the game supports the Russian language.
