In Death of the Reprobate, I assume the role of a young tyrant named Malcolm the Shit. His father, Immortal John, is dying. Usually, that would be good news for a spoiled heir like him, but his plans to assume the throne hit a snag when his daddy tells him he must perform seven good deeds to earn his right to rule the land.
Malcolm, however, is the equivalent of some sort of Renaissance-era fuckboy who likes to order the execution of his subjects. It's up to me to usher him along on his path to redemption in a journey that combines potty humor with... Renaissance artwork.
Death of the Reprobate, developed by Joe Richardson and released on Nov. 7, is one in a series of games that feature visuals inspired by history's most renowned 17th-century artists.
From the beginning, I was shocked by the quality of the graphics in the game; I can distinguish the delicate mixing of light and dark green brushstrokes in the rolling European hills and observe the cracks in the oil paint, as if I'm staring at an aged masterpiece hanging on the wall of an art gallery.
