Unspottable challenges you to be a convincing NPCRobots in disguise

Robots in disguise

TheRPS VidBudshave put up a bunch of let’s plays as part ofRezzed Digital, as this year’s iteration of the usual Indies Uncovered stream, and they’ve already found some solid games in the pack. But one of the surprise standouts from the bunch, for me at least, isUnspottable.

I hadn’t heard of Unspottable before, but after watching VidBud Matthew and Hardware Queen Katharine play together, I am both impressed and intrigued. It’s a multiplayer versus game where you have to blend in with a group of identical NPC robots (or robits, as is more correct), whilst also trying to spot which robits are your fellow players. Once you think you have spotted an interloper, you must deal with them in the traditional manner of dealing with interlopers: that is to say, you punch them a good’un.

The Castles play a best of three, but the game is probably best played with more than two players for full bants potential. It’s really fascinating to watch. Several times I thought I’d spotted a fake robit, only to find out seconds later that I was staring at an NPC the whole time. It’s got a bit of aSpyPartyvibe to it, and more than a littleHidden In Plain Sight.
