Goblin's Die

I don't usually do nostalgia. There's a few things that will get me. Dungeon Siege is one of them. And this game totally gives me this Dungeon Siege vibe in the best way. But it's not gonna be for everyone, because it is very calm, slow-paced game and combats are often one-on-one affairs. In full disclosure, several copies were given to my curator by the developer. I am not bought for the price of a game, so you'll get my thoughts below, as unvarnished as they are. The original Dungeon Siege was a game that demanded a lot of your time. It was a Diabloid, a game played from a 3/4s camera angle, all the action in realtime, and a special map for cooperative play. Each player had one character, who had only a very basic set of skills: a melee weapon, a missile weapon, or two spells. Very basic stuff. The trips between waypoints were long, might take an hour or more, or it felt like it anyway. Still, Dungeon Siege was weirdly charming and kind of chill, and before I convinced her to become my wife, I played this with my best gaming buddy for hours and hours on end. This game is a lot like that. It's really quite chill. Combat is slow-paced, almost methodical, an attack e…

In just one session I can say this game is pretty fun. It's a blast to run around with buddies and farm for the hive. It's both casual and has had some pretty engaging gameplay moments finding enemies much stronger than we are. Excited to see how it grows.

For The Hive!

Fantastic game. It's extremely simple but great fun. I couldn't help but feel compelled to push for that next bit of exploration to conquer the area and upgrade the hive. All for the hive.

I'm giving this game a negative review because it seems unfinished and it seems as if it's been abandoned after a few months. Maybe the developer is busy with other things, and that's understandable. Using the controller is broken. The game still shows the keyboard buttons to press while using the controller and screens behind other screens are being highlighted. I played it with the keyboard and mouse and got bored quickly every time I started it up. Needs work. This game desperately needs full controller support in order to be fun. That's just my opinion. I'll definitely remove my review when these glaring issues are taken care of. Peace.

I have not gotten to get into it long but from early play i can tell this is already gonna be fun. You gotta love RPGs
