Titanium Court is the latest game from developer AP Thomson, who worked on Consume Me most recently. It’s a bit of a nonsense game presented as an unfinished play in which the actors performing it don’t know where it’ll end nor do the writers as they frantically try to finish it.
That plays out in this interesting strategy game where you must play a Match 3 phase to gather resources before moving on. The next phase has you sending out fighters and farmers to navigate the surrounding map, killing enemies and gathering loot. The loop repeats with some story interspersed as the members of the court reveal what is happening inside and outside the court.
The game gains a personality early on in the tutorial. In it the premise is explained in a very silly, nonsensical manner with a strategy phase that’s full of random pop-ups of batters hitting baseball, food being cooked, and other funny bits as you defeat enemies and take over parts of the map.
I only got a tiny taste of the demo in the video above, but I’m already hooked. The gameplay is delightfully weird, and I can’t wait to be served the full-blown chaos when it releases later this year.
