About Crystal Heroes

Crystal Heroes is a new way to play a RPG using Match 3 for game mechanics. Battle on fantasy battlefields using RPG elements, level your characters, get new skills, new companions, pets, equipment, even use potions and scrolls to aid you in battle. Play against other players’ teams in the Arena or raid castles and build defenses for your own castle. Fight against bandits, packs of wolves, undead and if you dare go up against dragons and other mythical creatures.

[quote]Warning: Microtransaction infested mobile app[/quote] Crystal Heroes is one of thousands of nasty mobile apps infesting the "free" section of Steam, but it's not really free. There's only a superficial "game" here. While this doesn't seem to have been accepted by Apple and Google onto their respective app stores (yet, they'll let almost anything on), this incomplete Early Access bejewelled ripoff is indistinguishable from a shovelware mobile scam, complete with P2W cash shop. It's just a basic Match-3 game with some clunky looking "RPG" characters you muck around with... and wow, developers are supposed to declare when their assets and artwork are just AI Slop (just look at the hands!!!) instead of genuinely made. Still, there's no depths to which mobile scammers won't sink. It's just a veneer wrapped around a nasty, predatory mobile app cash shop. The true purpose of this mobile app is to get you to hand your credit card details to the greedy mobile devs so you can buy stuff in the nasty cash shop... it's a mobile app cash harvester, and has no place in your game library. The developers abandoned this ago. It will never be completed. This unfinished game is jus…

Microtransactions, boring game, and infuriating "hints" that you can't shut off. Like the devs think the players are so stupid they have to show them how to match 3 if the player hasn't done it fast enough.

If you ask me that game is one of the worst match 3 games I ever played .... sorry. Perhaps game itself is not that bad but battle itself is so bad that you don't want to play any more than one battle. RPG part of the game might be better, but can't really experience that when part of the game is so bad that you don't want to play it.

You will die faster than you can earn coin to rest. There is almost no information, so you will have to guess your way through. Not worth the current price.

The game seems promising, and the mechanics are innovative. The art is also nice. I am curious how this game will turn out. There are however some issues in the game's current stage. - I fought the same bandit 5 or 6 times, in identical "fights". Maybe that changes later in the game, but the start seems to be copy-pasted. - UI lacks hover and other effects, and it's hard to know what you can click on. Text in the UI is sometimes proper English, sometimes developer text (names of enum values etc.) - No proper tutorial to tell the player what the core mechanics are, though there is some basic information in the in-game guide. Overall a promising demo experience

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
