FPS Pulse Article
A reviewer who truly understands the mechanic and depth of what we have been trying to create with Wickland. Thank you FPS Pulse for the thorough review!
Is it Quake? – No.
Is it Unreal Tournament? – No.
So… What? – It’s Wickland.
You’re allowed to groan, but this is very much the truth – it’s different. And what I hope to show you here is that it is a game with immense depth and potential.
