Summary[]

What's in POPGOES and The Machinist?

  • An entire sequel campaign available after fully completing The Dead Forest!
  • Completely new areas, enemies and abilities like Overkill and Scrap Coins!
  • Deep, dark secrets connected to the wider POPGOES universe...

Gameplay[]

POPGOES and The Machinist is very similar to its predecessor, POPGOES: The Dead Forest. However, several new mechanics and enemies have been added.

For starters, Popgoes the Weasel no longer fights corrupted versions of animals. He instead fights robot versions of himself and his friends created by the Machinist. These robots get stronger and more dangerous depending on what area Popgoes is in. They are "Rusty" in the West Forest, normal in the South Forest, and "Pristine" in the East Forest and Garden. While underground, these robots become "Charged" and gain several new abilities. They periodically summon a shield, which makes them immune to most damage for three turns, and can use a stun attack, which disables Popgoes' battle abilities for three turns.

If Popgoes successfully defeats a hidden boss, he can also permanently upgrade his Hook ability to automatically pierce an enemy's shield.
