Comedy Roguelike Lucky Tower Ultimate Compels with New Content Update, Literally Called "Content"
Lucky Tower Ultimate is a very silly Early Access Dungeon Crawler that has been sitting at the top of my “to-play” forever. A second content update just dropped, so maybe now would be the perfect time to get a review out? And with it currently 20% off Steam until February 23rd, maybe now is the perfect time for you to pick it up! Read more about the new release via the Press Release below!
Yesterday, Lucky Tower Ultimate inconspicuously released the second Early Access content update, called Content. Yep. That's the name, and they're sticking to it. New content includes: A new NPC called the Pipefitter that allows players to bring more items from across the tower and into the village, The Bard, who plays terrible music and offers a deadly quest, new traps, unique rooms, tower architecture, new Steam Achievements, and more.
Chosen by the community, for (and to spite) the community by way of voting, the "Content" Update contains this curated collection of characters and chaos:
The Pipefitter
A team of industrious sisters in the village that let you carry more tower items outside. Build chutes to use inside the tower to transport items to different segments in the same run. Convenient!
The Bard
Complete the Bard's calamitous quest that results in what could be considered a criminal activity, locate his corpse in the tower (found in new, random places every run) to find a new instrument or other useful item from his pockets. Creepy!
Snowy & Puffles
Inspired by one from the original Lucky Tower web game, a trap involving three doors with names above them. Choose one and choose carefully - this door closes behind you and you'll face whatever is in it. It might be a harmless snail, a peasant companion, or a tough enemy. Choices!
The Pipes
With the Pipefitter's arrival comes more visible piping, but it's horrible. They shake, collapse, and can contain a range of materials ranging from corrosive to inconsequential. Crappy construction!
Bear Trap, Rake
Exactly what it sounds like in a cartoon context. Clear and classic!
Additional content includes:
Commentary in 270 new voice lines
Compartments, unique rooms: Machine Room & Spike Room
Cool cuts: The Barber now sells beards
Culture via new, weird architecture all over the tower
Collectible new Steam Achievements
Auto coin collection and quality of life improvements
