Autoexec Games have announced that their action-strategy game Wicca has been renamed to Timemelters, and released a new gameplay trailer.
Created by the co-developer of Sang-Froid: Tales of Werewolves, Timemelters is an action-strategy hybrid based on Scottish folklore. Players control Teagan, a witch that has gotten wrapped up in the battle for the Kingdom of Hogendale. Dark forces march across the countryside, and Teagan must use her powers to stop them.
Teagan’s abilities are based around time manipulation. More specifically, she can go back in time and fight alongside past versions of herself as they fend off hordes of evil creatures and undead monsters. Timemelters can also be played cooperatively.
You can find the new trailer below.
You can find the rundown (via Steam) below:
Created by the co-designer of Sang-Froid: Tales of Werewolves, Timemelters brings you to a mythical 16th Century Scotland — a Scotland of dreams and nightmares, where witch trials seem the only answer to the preternatural forces threatening the land.
Timemelters is a strategy game that features a unique game mechanic: Time Travel, which allows the players to go back in time and fight alongside themselves. You play as Teagan, a witch whose powers were just recently unleashed by an unwelcome guest. Now, you must venture forth in a desperate effort to cleanse the countryside from the seeping evil that is corrupting it.

Something is rotten in the Kingdom of Hogendale.
Creation is stricken. Trees and beasts sicken, wither and are reborn as shrieking, malevolent shades. The dead claw their way out of the poisoned earth to swarm mindlessly over the land. No living man or woman is safe from their dripping talons. Whole towns are brought to ruin. King Ionracas’ dream of a lasting Pax Hogendala vanishes in an unnatural whirl of blood and misery.
It must be the Witches! Who else could be responsible for this chaos? The King decrees their death by fire. And thus — many an innocent woman is condemned to the sacred pyre.
Now, the flames await you.
