Doctor Lautrec and the Forgotten Knights' ESRB rating reveals turn-based battles
Coming from the ESRB listing...
Rating summary: This is a puzzle-adventure game in which players assume the role of an archaeologist on a quest to find hidden treasure in 19th-century France. Players search for clues, solve puzzles, and engage in turn-based combat against ghostly “spirits.” These brief battles consist of energy attacks that lower enemies' hit points; damage is indicated by colorful light flashes, and spirits disappear when defeated. In one cutscene, police officers shoot at a large creature that knocks them to the ground. During the course of the game, the dialogue includes some mildly suggestive remarks (e.g., “[He] manages to be both a nihilist and a womanizer,” “Is not parrying romantic advances the best part of being a woman?” and “I have no intention of becoming anyone's lover.”). Some sequences also contain references to alcohol (e.g., “Milady, a whiskey please. Something strong enough to make me forget it all” and “[D]on't get so drunk that you start tearing up the place.”). In one scene, a man is depicted blowing smoke from a pipe.
Uh-oh...turn-based gaming isn't really my thing, save for a few random titles. I'm not going to write the game off now, but I'm not as excited as I once was.
