Achilles: Legends Untold

Bought the game a while ago to scratch that "greek mythos" itch, been checking in on it with the updates. I don't think this game needs a deep dive review. This is very much an indy game with indy jank, but also personally think at its core this is a very fun passion project and worth playing/supporting. Basically if the game play videos and screenshots look fun to you, most likely you will enjoy it - and Indy devs like this are ABSOLUTELY worth supporting and there for so is this game/project. Bought it full price a while ago and don't regret it one bit - on sale this is absolutely a buy IMO.

Awesome Diablo-like game.

The game is ok, but nothing more. 4/10 The kind of arpg to play whilst watching videos or listening to an audio book. Get it on sale only. The good: If you enjoy the Greek setting this one has a nice all star cast, some familiar names whilst having its own story. Graphics are decent and the environment is nice. The neutral: Music, Voice acting and Level design are all okay, nothing inspiring but alright. The bad: The combat gets old quickly, the skill system and loot are uninspired to the point where neither level ups nor new gear are “fun”. There is no way to improve your poise, level 1 or level 50 you are getting kicked around by basic enemies like a ball. Same for stun locks, groups of even mediocre enemies are vastly more dangerous than any Boss, since every hit interrupts your actions. Foes are placed in weird, story defying, spots and are so mixed that any damage specialization (like fire or dark) makes no sense since even a single basic basement contains everything from bandit, a pack of wolves to mythical poison spiders. The different weapons make little difference and will hardly change your play style. Neither will the few skills. The handful of unlocks in the…

Sound game that bump up a rating considering the sale price I got it at. Happy to support small developers. The target lock is finnicky & was particularly so during the end game when the fights are toughest. The battle system isn't varied enough to for me to do another playthrough. Recommended.

Chill game for me, like Greece theme and other stuff, some content was repetitive but its okey, i like explore and craft system, little grind ofc. spend around 20-22 hrs in this game

Achilles: Legends Untold builds a grounded interpretation of the Trojan War where stamina management and precise spatial awareness dictate every encounter. Navigating the desolate ruins of this mythological landscape requires a disciplined approach, as the game rewards those who carefully master its deliberate rhythm rather than relying on frantic button presses. Combat thrives on a combination of tactical dodge-rolling and a versatile shield-throw ability that bridges the gap between offensive and defensive play. Although initial encounters might provoke skepticism due to the demanding nature of these systems, the mechanical satisfaction of successfully parrying incoming strikes soon transforms frustration into genuine player enjoyment. Strategic growth remains a highlight through a comprehensive leveling system that allows for bespoke character specialisation across Strength, Vitality, and Luck. Investing points into these attributes provides a palpable sense of empowerment, ensuring that every venture into dangerous dungeons yields meaningful improvements to your warrior’s effectiveness against persistent mythological threats. Exploration proves equally rewarding, as th…
