Rabbit and Steel
■ Get ready!
“RABBIT & STEEL'' is a raid-style cooperative roguelike action game where you and your rabbit-eared friends take on formidable bosses. Fight enemies, collect loot, develop your character, and overcome obstacles on your way to the Moonlight Tower.
Battles are similar to those in MMORPGs, where you switch targets using the Tab key. There are global cooldowns, effective skill activation, equipment effects, etc., and you can demonstrate teamwork to conquer the boss's gimmicks.
However, this game is not an RPG, it's a roguelike!
Start playing, choose your class, invite your friends to the lobby, and the battle begins right away. One to four rabbits can go on a journey together. When venturing out on your own, scenes that would normally require cooperation are replaced by an intense barrage of bullets.
Inarticle HorizontalOf course, sometimes it's not as simple as just smashing away the enemies that stand in your way. The key to success is developing your character with the loot and upgrades you get along the way. Some items go well together…be careful not to let your friends jump on what you really need!
