The Last Chimera

The Last Chimera

First things first, heed the content warning.

Not sure why the captives had to be chained up, the plot implies everyone is a willing participant.

Beatable in four hours. Interesting monster designs. A fair bit of thought has been put into this game.

Combat suffers from being JRPG random encounters + level grind. Would have been fun if you had to think a bit more about which splits you bring with you and what they’re geared with for each fight (in fairness, you probably do on Hard but it’s a bit hard to tell what’s going on).

It’s a single player auto-battler with RPG, strategy, and roguelike elements. It’s an ambitious project that combines several of the most rewarding elements from each genre. Currently the game is in early access with a typical “run” taking 45 minutes - 1 hour upon successful completion.

The development team is very responsive on Steam and their Discord and has already released several patches since the game was launched last week. They are also working on making the game accessible and fully playable for the visually impaired, which I think deserves a positive recommendation all on its own.

Alcheverse: Shadow from Gladview

The map of the island of Gigax is generated from scratch every time and it’ll be hard for Lumpy to complete his journey! In the map you’ll find ingredients like the Tentacle or the Star Shard, fight packs of Corrupted Alcheverse that will attack you, meet strange individuals like the Merchant or King Paxton, who will offer you extravagant trades!

Craft your Alcheverse by mixing different ingredients together and unlock all recipes. Each of these powerful creatures has 10 differents statistics that influence their performance in battle and an unique skill that gives each of them a characteristic play style! To get the most out of your team you’ll also need to use the Sinergies wisely. When two or more Alcheverse share a common ingredient you’ll gain a Synergy bonus that improves the creatures statistics!

Position your Alcheverse in the most strategic way and let them fight for you: automatic combat allows you to focus on the strategy rather than the reflexes. Unlock powerful Synergies to overcome the hardest fights! Beware, the game is challenging and it will take you time to learn all the best strategies and combos!

The town of Gladview is in danger! The greed of King Paxton led to the creation of the Corruption: a failed alchemy experiment that infects everything it touches! The Master alchemist Gullio was also Corrupted, and he’s the only one that can fix this mess! You are Lumpy, the alchemist apprentice that will make the journey to the Volcano of the island of Gigax to rescue Gullio. Will you be able to save the master and end the Corruption?

In fact, the game is not bad, it is worth its money, and especially at a discount. The game may be jerky, but we assume that it was released quite recently. You can run, kill time in the evening.

The game was not clear at first, but over time I got used to it and even delayed the game for an hour, although there are not enough locations, I liked the idea of ​​the game itself

I do recommend the game but…there’re several glaring flaws.

The game does a very poor job explaining the item mixing system. This is because the game literally tells you nothing about the major rules governing item mixing and essence extraction. However, you can generally create items that continuously get stronger through good use of blank essences and abrasive stones. I wouldn’t have figured that out without hanging out on the game’s Steam forum.

The Heart System is literally a pointless feature. You lose a heart each time you die, unless you have Heart Protection. Lose all 5 hearts and you lose all of your equipped items the next time you die. Your hearts are restored for free every day at midnight. Seriously, this “feature” just screws over the player by preventing them from playing out of fear of losing their items when they’re out of hearts…or you could open the wallet for 75 hearts via microtransactions. Scroll up and look at the store page to see the price.

A great game - this is a semi idle game you can play actively for quite a long time before it starts slowing down. The game has very in depth ‘crafting’ mechanics, which are core of the game, so I have made a guide for the English speaking community based on sea season(patch 1.2 approximately) and added my own build in so you know that it’s not game being unfair, but you simply needing to be smart with using it’s mechanics.

Be aware that using the guide can take part of the fun you get by learning the unknown.
