This is a bit of a running theme in the game: Copernica ends up having a similar moment with her old college mentor, and Orik's entire goal through the first three quarters of the game is trying to assemble a group of heroes to show the Big Bad that true heroism hasn't been forgotten and he doesn't have to go through with his Evil Plan. Broken Pedestal: Much of the game is spent showing how the heroes Armilly wants to be one of up to and including Gilgamech aren't worth her literal hero worship, and that in the end she's more heroic than any of them.At the very end, during the "Where Are They Now?" Epilogue, Gilgamech converts the Behemoth's remains into a golf course. Early on, we learn that one of Armilly's misadventures involved her accidentally terrorizing a golf course (she thought she was hunting gophers).Brick Joke: Chapter 2 starts out with Armilly and Copernica talking about petting fluffy ducks, until Milly spots ".A WAGON!" Copernica is, understandably, confused: ".a fluffy wagon duck?" A sad fluffy wagon duck ends up being a tonberry-esque Bonus Boss in Act III.In the Cursed City, Archdruid Bob turns out to be a Serial Killer cultist and the Arc Villain for the act. Beware the Silly Ones: Orik isn't just a goofy sidekick in a mask.Behind the Black: When you encounter an enemy and there are no others onscreen, unless it's an Fake Ultimate Mook, several will come from offscreen to join the bad guy party.Basement-Dweller: Galleo is mocked for living in his mother's basement, but he generally shrugs it off.As a downside, she cannot heal others on her own (and can only heal herself if the enemy uses fire, ice, or lightning attacks), being the only character without a heal skill of her own (while one of said barriers does heal everyone, it is reliant on Galleo, the best healer, being on the the team). Barrier Warrior: Copernica starts off with the ability to set up shields around allies, and can later add a spell-reflecting magic mirror and party-wide elemental wards. ![]() Arbitrary Headcount Limit: Only three characters can participate in battle at once.Rather than an evil Tome of Eldritch Lore, it's a buzzsaw-shaped gear which acts as the "heart" of the sleeping Behemoth which was buried deep underground after being vanquished by the hero Gilgamech in ancient times. Artifact of Doom: The Necronomicog, which spreads The Corruption for miles around the spot where it's buried.The Dark Lord of the Void Army declares that robots have forgotten what heroism truly is, and seeks to reshape the world using the Necronomicog. And Man Grew Proud: And Robot Grew Proud.Alchemy Is Magic: Specifically, alchemists are wizards: they wear pointy hats, carry grimoires, go to college in a wizard's tower, and cast huge flashy spells without the apparent need for flasks or vials or portable lab equipment.( Guild Master) Gainz, Captain Canary, and many more. Aerith and Bob: Armilly, Copernica, Gilgamech, Tarah & Thayne.Tropes found in SteamWorld Quest include: Eager to stand against them and prove herself is Armilly, a Heroes Guild hopeful that's been waiting for her chance to truly prove herself despite repeatedly failing at tasks in the past. Taking place in the Shared Universe of SteamWorld Dig and SteamWorld Heist, the game is set on a planet that is being invaded by an army known as the Void. SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech is a Turn-Based Combat RPG with card mechanics, released in April 2019 for Nintendo Switch and late May for Steam.
