Here's a game that I'm trying out currently, my friends have been begging me to come play it. It's set in an alternate-universe with a colonial setting. What would happen if when Columbus discovered the America's it was inhabited by monsters? You create a "Family" rather than a single player. Within that family, you create individuals that you can control at the same time (I believe up to three at once). I'll post more once I get into the game, but it has an overall steampunk feel which I'm a sucker for.

Movement is point and click, as well as targeting. Each of the three characters you control has their own action bar. The first character is keys "qwerty", second are "asdfgh" and the third is "zxcvbn", so it's pretty easy once you have the hang of it to control all three at once, just click on the mob you want to attack, then keystroke the attacks.

It's pretty neat, it takes a bit to get the hang of. I just discovered that there is a way to click on one button, then an area on the ground and your team will auto attack any bad guys in the area, then click another one to put them in "Harvest Mode" and they'll gather any dropped loot in an area.
