For Sparta

For Sparta

PROS:

  • A decent variety of enemies. There are about 3-4 different skins for each monster, but they each have varying attacks and behaviours to keep things interesting.

  • A large selection of craftable perks to potentially obtain.

  • The controls handle well. Dodging and attacking feels responsive and enjoyable.

  • Action-packed generally speaking. Enemies spawn in waves throughout a day, but if you take too long, the next wave will spawn in to keep you on your toes.

  • Satisfying and appropriate sound effects.

Great little arcade game. It’s difficult and has a lot of random elements that can make it anywhere from challenging to near impossible, but with games being so fast/short and the ability to restart in a couple of seconds it’s not normally frustrating.

If you like old school keyboard bashing this is for you.

Questr

Questr

I found QUESTR to be very entertaining. It is not much as a game, but what it lacks in gaming substance it makes up in content.

You start by inviting people to join your quest party. Many of the people lie on their profiles and some characters hate your other members so much that they quit right away.

Every quest has multiple events in which you need to select one characters idea how to solve them. For example you encounter a vampire. Will you send a) the Vegan to talk to him about being vegan b) the drunk to talk about drinking c) or the bro who says he got this as he had to watch vampire movies with his ex. Results might not be what you expect.

Questr is an RPG parody of dating apps similar to Tinder.

In a similar fashion, you swipe left and right to build the perfect RPG team. Every potential party member has likes and dislikes, levels, costs to hire, and personality traits as well as their own class, guild, and ancestry.

Personality traits determine the outcome of encounters throughout each quest. Beating an encounter raises morale, while failing lowers it. Party members also interact with one another between encounters, further raising or lowering morale depending on how well personality types get along and whether or not you paid attention to likes and dislikes. At the end of a quest, the morale level determines if you successfully complete it, giving you a reward and the possibility of having party members continue to quest with you.

Have to say this game is very fun to play with a few friends, while on my PC having 3 xbox controllers and using my Keyboard it has been a blast and lots of laughs. Don’t let the simple look put you off, this is old school classic game play that is not only fun but also fun with friends while sitting on the Couch.

I’m enjoying the game and not regreting purchasing it, but damn I can really feel that its early access.

Let’s start with the pros: minimalistic, yet charming art and enviroment, combined with really satisfying attack animations and effects. So satisfying that sometimes i choose lower grade skills over epic and legendary skills just because I love how it looks. There are whole variety of skills, and you can choose between 4 different weapons, and go for several builds. Bosses are fairly balanced, and fun.

얼리엑세스 이전에 키를 받아 플레이를 한 후, 솔직한 리뷰를 남겨봅니다.

장점:

  • 뛰어난 액션성: 2d 게임과는 다르게 3d 그래픽으로 인해 액션이 돋보입니다.

  • 다채로운 무기 선택과 무기 스킬:

개인적으로는 채찍과 권총을 선호합니다 (물론 권총의 타격판정 개선이 필요할 것 같지만요). 여러 무기 선택지로 인해 컨셉을 정해 플레이가 가능하여 재밌습니다.

  • 긴머리 캐릭터: 저는 장발 캐릭터 모에입니다. 그렇다구요 lol

  • 니어, 드래그온드라군과 비슷한 암울한 분의기:

정확한 스토리는 모르겠지만, 테러/러브 보스등 처럼 보스들에게 무언가 이야기가 담긴것 같습니다. 숨은 의미가 궁금하네요. 물론 테디베어는 넘나 귀엽습니다.

단점:

  • 반복적인 몇몇 엘리트 보스: 특정 보스가 너무 반복적으로 많이 나옵니다. 단순히 랜덤 문제는 아닌것 같네요.

  • 타격 판정 및 일부 조작: 이전 리뷰와 비슷한 내용이지만 대쉬 방향과 거리가 종종 예측 불가능합니다. 권총 무기의 타격 판정도 너무 좁아 잘 안맞는 것 같네요.

Hero Soul: I want to be a Hero!

Hero Soul: I want to be a Hero!

Taken from the banned texts in the Imperial Library

Long ago, on the small continent of Altaria, two races mastered the art of magic. The first were the elves mastering the magics of life known as astral magic. The second were the demons mastering the magics of death known as umbral magic. The elves, fearing umbral magic, banded with the the other races on a crusade to wipe out the demon race. The crusade was all too successful, leading to the extinction of the demon race. The elves no longer contested, ruled Altaria forming the Altarian Empire.

Present Day

Knowledge of the demon race and umbral magic have all been forgotton. The elves rule over Altaria and occupy the nobility of the empire, while the humans and beastmen that helped them remain commoners in the empire.

Cecilia Grey is your less than average human commoner. Her father is a member of a civilian organization known as the adventurer guild, and unlike many girls her age, she wants to join the guild to follow in his footsteps. How will her adventure unfold?

#### Mixing Roguelite and JRPG Genres!

Ever wonder what would happen if a story driven JRPG mixed with a rouge-lite? Does that even work? Hero Soul started as an experimental project to explore this concept where I tried smashing the two together, and the result… well you’ll have to judge for yourself.

#### What can I expect?

Hero Soul is a 2D pixel ARPG, which incorporates traditional RPG/JRPG gameplay with rogue-lite elements. Like traditional rogue-lites, gameplay is broken into runs or small sessions. Each session will be similar but not the same as the last. The story will progress as you do more runs and Cecilia will grow stronger as well!

#### Features

- Procedurally generated levels

The landscape of Altaria is always shifting, and no two levels will be alike. Experience increased replay-ability with procedurally generated levels, quests, and monsters! No level or run will be exactly the same and no story will be either!

- Customizable spell system

In Hero Soul you can cast spells in addition to your normal attacks. As you play you will discover spell cards to add to your collection. You may then pick and choose which spell cards to use. Spell effects vary so experiment to find which cards suit your play style.

- Modular skill trees

While the game’s name is Hero Soul, the Hero Soul also refers to the modular talent tree system that handles your character’s skills and talents. This system allows you to mix and match different hero archetypes to create your ideal hero. Heroes are are discovered randomly as you progress thorough the game.

This game is a blast! I love the large selection of unique weapons and the nostalgic 80’s art style. Very smooth game-play and plenty of challenging levels at a killer value. Anyone who enjoys shoot-em-ups will dig this game.

I will note that there’s no volume control and that’s a bummer; I had to use an external sound controller:/

Nary

Nary

Looking though my library one day, I realize I have a huge backlog that I need to go though.

So from

https://www.howlongtobeatsteam.com/#/auth/76561198089299679

I sorted my games for which game I can finish fastest. IT’s not always accurate but it did help me go though many games.

On that website Nary was listed to be completed for 0.5 hours. So I installed the game and gave it a try.

I was tricked! This Nary is a certain sonic hedgehog in fox custom. You are an ever running fox that need to jump and kill enemy will try not getting killed by walls and enemies. The game is lighting fast and extremly hard to play. Even on the easiest difficulty it took me many many tries to final complete it the first time.

Quite a good game. Good engaging gameplay, great music. Doesn’t waste much time and gets in to the gameplay right away. Short and hard but also rewarding and fun. Ending ham-fisted “story” was pretty funny, reminded me of final fantasy 1. Whatever crap controls the other comments talk about has been patched and it controls great. For the extra game modes, a decent few were pretty crap but most were fun options to play with. I don’t know why there’s any other bird choices besides glitch though, aka 420mlg rainbow bird. For two dollars I definitely enjoyed my time with this game and would recommend it.

City of Brass

City of Brass

I thought long and hard on whether I should recommend City of Brass or not and ultimately decide to recommend it despite all its flaws. Make sure you pick it up during a sale because the game has certain features that you will either love or hate.

The Good

Lets start with what City of Brass gets right. It’s a good looking game that runs well on low spec computers. I could consistently get 60 fps on my PC which is older than the earth itself. During my 17 or so hours with the game I’ve only encountered one bug which was more comedic than annoying.

I don’t like to use the word “promising” very much. Plenty of Early Access-titles can be described as “promising”, as in “The concept is solid, but plenty of things are missing, and when / if those things are put in, it might be fun”.

This game, however, is different. You can tell a lot of content is missing, yes, but what’s already in the game feels really rewarding. The artstyle is charming, the gameplay is solid and already feels really satisfying.

The gameplay can be summed up rather quickly. You’re an adventurer raiding a mythical city brimming with treasures and the undead citizens and guards that used to populate the place. Because things can never be as simple as “A couple of skeletons chase you”, however, the nice people that lived in the titular City of Brass have kindly left enough traps to make Jigsaw jealous.
