Fantasy Survivors

Criminally underrated survivor game.

right up my alley. A tad too hard at the start but if you stick with its certainly a gem

Playing solo is such a brutal grind. I have 130 hours logged at the time of review and I'm just short of 70% completion. There are missions I received in my first hour of gameplay that I *still* can't complete. And it's awesome! (if you're into that kind of thing) One thing is for certain: I absolutely feel like I've gotten way more than my money's worth of enjoyment out of this game

Overall I do enjoy the game but I do have some feedback for things that I think would be a source of improvement 1) better infrastructure for joining a friends private game, the join on through steam is less than ideal and the ability to make a sort of group waiting room would be nice 2) the maps are a bit quiet, having theme music would be a lot more enjoyable, given that the ads for the game have rock music playing over the matches. 3) the games unlock loop can be a bit of a grind, to the point that I am actually a bit worried that once I get everything unlocked I might end up not wanting to play more because of a feeling of fatigue with it. All of that said I do enjoy the game and enjoy the character unlocks and the item options and builds. I do have issues with a few maps but overall I do enjoy playing it and love being able to play with friends. There is also something nice where higher tier players have hopped into open runs I have had and helped me make it to the end, making me want to do the same for newer players and help them out.

solid vs like

Sorry to say, but I'm not a fan of this one. For the first level and first few hours (at least) of the experience, it seems like the gameplay loop is just 1) Get a couple treasure chests 2) Find the exit and camp there, farming achievements until you escape If you do anything else, it seems like you're very likely to die. Getting gold is very slow and tedious, which might artificially inflate the potential playtime, but the problem is that the game isn't very fun. I want to support indie developers as much as anyone, and I gave this game a college try, but it's just not very fun. Maybe this is one of those "it gets good after X hours" things. But I'm just not sure I'm willing to suffer through any more hours of boredom for the good stuff.
