Amazon says 'Crucible,' its first major video game, is not a bid enter the esport space. For now
. So while “Crucible” has an anthropomorphic rodent — Tosca is her name, and she’s a master at sarcasm and shooting an acid gun — as well a chipper robot with an interest in botany and mayhem, “Crucible” is designed to be a game whose characters have deep skill sets that will require time to master.
The team wanted a game that was bright and detailed, and one that showed off the personality of its diverse, animated character roster, which features a broad mix of genders, species and races. Its 10 core playable characters at launch range from Ajonah, a blue-toned, “Avatar"-influenced sharpshooting alien with connections to nature, to the flame-throwing female warrior Summer to the more jovial Rahi, whose robot sidekick seems to always bring a smile to Rahi’s face.
