A guard form wields a stout metal sword, a ranger a bow and arrows. Morphing into a rat, for instance, lets him slip through small spaces and chomp uglies with sharp, poisonous teeth. To help with those quests, Nobody uses the magician’s wand to shift forms. And maybe, just maybe, Nobody can find out what happened to him along the way. The goal is to mow down hordes of corrupted monsters while seeking out hidden-away gem pieces that can banish the plague infestation. Nobody Saves the World asks you to make your way through begrimed basements, creepy castles, malodorous mineshafts and putrid pumpkins, to name but a few less-than-scenic stops. Well, luckily our little nobody comes upon a magic wand left behind by Nostramagus and, after being maliciously dropped into a dungeon-like place, he works to set things aright. And at the same time a mystical plague called The Calamity has beset the kingdom and its people. Unfortunately, that fellow has gone missing. So when he wanders out into the strange land around him, he’s quickly sent to a local wizard named Nostramagus to seek wisdom and help. He’s nothing but a pasty-skinned, black-eyed guy whose memory is as empty as his eyes. The game starts you out with a little guy named Nobody (who you certainly wouldn’t pick on face value for world-saving). And it’s not because we’ve never seen the kind of grinding and bashing gameplay that this title offers, but because of how it’s delivered-with a mix of zany humor and a collection of odd, quick-switch characters. Nobody Saves the World is a new RPG for Xbox and PC that’s earned quite a bit of buzz in gaming circles.
