It's fun to shoot fireballs together: the Children of Morta update

In the fall of 2019, gamers were surprised to learn that there are game developers in Iran. The second surprise was that the Iranian studio Dead Mage released a game at the intersection of the action and roguelike genres, or "roguelike", which became a hit, collecting positive reviews on Steam. On the occasion of Valentine's Day a major update for Children of Morta was released, and at the same time the project was temporarily made free.

Together with the release of the Fellowship Sanctuary update, a co-op mode was added to the game, so that everyone could invite their significant other to the battle, or, alternatively, invite a friend. And the walkthrough with a partner is available in the story campaign and in the challenge mode. The developers, it seems, did not specifically change the power of monsters, but previously added a difficulty setting - now you are free to choose a level that is more suitable for the joint passage. So far, the update has only the PC-version, but soon the co-op will get to the consoles. Until February 18, Children of Morta is available for free. This way the staff of Dead Mage wants to facilitate the gamers' search for partners.

The game focuses on the adventures of the Bergson couple. From their manor, the family makes forays into dark groves and dungeons, where filth spreads, and with it, monsters are born. Each family member has special skills: for example, taking control of a swordsman, you can cut down enemies in close combat, and an archer shoots everyone from afar. Levels, as it should be in the "roguelike", are lined up randomly. The only permanent location in the game is the manor, where the hero gets after his death, and where you can improve his characteristics.
