    When everyday Londoners mysteriously turn into vicious killers, only the circus' lineup of Strongmen, Fire Blowers, Clowns and other performers possess the unique talents necessary to save the city.

    Circus Electrique is part story-driven RPG, part tactics, part circus management, and completely enthralling - all with a steampunk twist.

    Through tactical turn-based battles, these unlikely heroes face Bobbies, British Sailors gone bad, aggressive Posh Girls, and other Victorian-era archetypes stand in their way - not to mention the occasional menacing Mime or Robobear.

    The game's innovative Devotion morale system affects characters' performance not only in battles, but also for actual circus shows, dutifully managed between heroic jaunts through six sprawling districts.

    Circus Electrique is the kind of game that does so many different and unique things that they end up making up for some mistakes and missteps seen throughout it. Despite not figuring in any list of "best of the year", it deserves to be remembered among the good and unique titles of 2022.

    The gameplay and turn based battle system is decent if uninspiring.

Where the game really falls flat is with its main character and supporting cast. Very little to no development and none are worthwhile playing with. Graphics are a mixed bag with a old school grainy film effect. Its not bad but could be better. In the end, the poor story and bad characters will make you lose your interest sooner rather than later. Expand
