The life of a castle town guard isn’t easy. They have to decide who comes, who goes, and whether or not they can go freely. However, when the position becomes vacant, we’ll step up to do our part to keep the fantasy-fiction rabble out this week in Lil’ Guardsman on the Indie-licious ShackStream.

Lil’ Guardsman comes to us from the developers at Hilltop Games and publishers at Versus Evil. It’s available as of January 23, 2024, and can be played on PC, PS4, PS5, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. You play as Lil, the child of the town gate guardsman. When your parent is taken out of commission, it’s up to you to carry on the family business. That means taking in travelers, hearing their stories, and determining whether or not they can pass into the city. Your choices can change the fate of the town and lead to all sorts of outcomes.

Join us as we play Lil’ Guardsman on today’s episode of the Indie-licious ShackStream, going live on the Shacknews Twitch channel at 1:30 p.m. PT / 4:30 p.m. ET. You can also watch just below.
