Boss battles await at the end of each district as well, something you better have planned to prepare for well ahead of time. As you explore each district you’ll battle against numerous types of enemies, some robotic and others creepy looking. The narrative is intriguing at first, wondering what’s going on and some more sub-plots beneath the surface, but I’ll admit, it was hard to follow along at times simply because of all the circus management and game mechanics you need to constantly be checking in on and having to focus on. With her tamed lion along her side, Leonidas, you’ll investigate what’s the root cause for The Maddening with circus performers acting as your bodyguards as you explore six districts within London. You’re actually here investigating an event being dubbed as “The Maddening”, which is having people in London being killed at random after becoming violent and aggressive. While you don’t play directly as her, the protagonist is Amelia, a young journalist that’s related to the Ringmaster of the circus, Randy. I’m glad I did experience it though, as Circus Electrique is an odd blend of turn based tactical combat, a narrative RPG, but also a circus management game, all wrapped in a Victorian era steampunk aesthetic. I’ll admit, watching the trailer for Circus Electrique left me somewhat confused at to what I was about to experience. Usually when I first watch a trailer for a new game I can generally get an idea and feel for how the game is going to be.
