Game Description
Kingdoms of the Dump is a pixelated RPG adventure that follows an unjustly accused squire named Dustin Binsley. After the ruler of the kingdom of Garbagia is kidnapped, it is Dustin, the Garbage Can Knight, who falls under suspicion. Now he must go on a dangerous journey to restore his reputation, save the monarch and uncover a sinister organization that threatens the entire world. His main goal is to prevent a full-scale war and return peace to his native lands.
The hero will have to confront not only false accusations, but also an entire army of Toxic Grimlins, seeking to plunge everything into chaos. The journey in Kingdoms of the Dump takes place in a world called the Lands of the Dump, consisting of five and a half unique kingdoms. Each location, from cities with houses made of tin cans to dungeons littered with trash, is imbued with a unique atmosphere of garbage fantasy, emphasizing the unusual setting of the project.
Dustin Binsley is not alone in his journey. He is joined by his faithful friend Ratavia, the librarian Walker Jacket, the bard Lute, the laundress Cerulean and the master of disguise Musk. Switch between 6 characters to use their unique abilities to overcome obstacles and solve puzzles. The world exploration, which includes platforming elements, takes place on a vast Mode 7-style map, which can eventually be navigated by airship.
Enemy battles are not random - enemies are visible on the map, allowing you to engage in combat at your discretion. The combat system, implemented on a 3x3 grid, requires tactical squad placement to evade spells, traps and deal maximum damage. In addition, the mechanics of well-timed taps used during attacks add an element of interactivity to turn-based fights and require extreme concentration from the gamer.
