1666: Amsterdam Dazzles Visually But Struggles With Its Mechanics in Early Access Preview
A hands-on look at 1666: Amsterdam reveals a stunningly recreated 1660s Amsterdam with dual timelines and witchcraft underpinnings, but the preview shows rough combat, undercooked NPCs, awkward cat-transformation traversal, and inconsistent writing. While the visuals and historical detail shine and the roguelite-style coffers promise variety, the game currently suffers from clunky tutorials and pacing, making early access essential for refinement and feedback before it can live up to its ambition.
