1666: Amsterdam has the makings of something brilliant but I came away from its preview with a bad feeling as it's early access release creeps too close for comfort
A preview of 1666: Amsterdam reveals a game with ambitious exploration and narrative ideas, set in 17th Century Amsterdam. Despite a decade in development and innovative mechanics like possessing a cat, the preview highlighted concerns about combat depth and potential bugs, particularly with a boss encounter glitching out. The game is slated for an early access release on August 25, with developers prioritizing iterative progression over perfection.
