The highly anticipated Black Beacon has made its mobile debut, and we got early access to this Mythic Sci-Fi Action RPG. Let's dive into what makes this game stand out in the crowded action RPG space.
Welcome to the Library of Babel
The adventure begins in the awe-inspiring Library of Babel - a sprawling, enigmatic structure blending elements from both biblical lore and Jorge Luis Borges' iconic short story. You wake up disoriented in this strange book-filled labyrinth, surrounded by colorful characters equally clueless about their circumstances. Oh, and there's a minor detail - a monstrous spinning orb will eliminate everyone within 24 hours. No pressure, right?
The narrative throws you into the deep end with its bizarre premise - think time travel, mythical references, and shelves upon shelves of nonsensical books. The confusion is intentional, creating an intriguing mystery that hooks you from the start.
Combat That Keeps You on Your Toes
Gameplay delivers a satisfying dungeon crawler experience with customizable camera options. Whether you prefer top-down or free camera movement, the controls adapt to your playstyle. You'll explore winding library corridors, solve puzzles, hunt for treasure, and battle grotesque enemies - remnants of people the library hasn't quite "digested" yet.
The combat shines with its fluid, timing-based mechanics. Perfect dodges grant temporary invincibility, while well-timed heavy attacks can interrupt enemy moves. The character-swapping system adds strategic depth, letting you tag-team fresh fighters into battle mid-combo. Master the rhythm and you'll feel like a combat virtuoso - until that inevitable moment when a monster sends you flying across the room.
Gacha With a Twist
As expected from a gacha title, Black Beacon features character and weapon collection mechanics with progression systems for both. The gacha introduces characters you'll later encounter in the story - think of it as the game's own mysterious temporal anomaly. While resource management can get complex, the system offers plenty of automation to reduce menu fatigue.
Final verdict? Black Beacon delivers a refreshingly weird narrative wrapped in solid ARPG gameplay. If you're craving something different in the mobile RPG space, this might be your next obsession.
