HammerHelm

Enjoying this one quite a lot on the Steam Deck, but not exactly stable framerate unless you lock it to 30hz. An easy and laid back game that does not require too much focus or attention. It can get a tiny bit repetitive as most of the fun comes from expanding and managing your town. Gathering the necessary resources is the "thrill" so once you get the hang of how to harvest resources efficiently, you no longer feel stuck with progression. While not everything may be clear and simple at first, especially when using a controller, once you get the hang of it it becomes a breeze. Grinding resources are necessary for full achievement completion and some day/night cycle waiting is needed to progress the story that cannot be sped up. Depending on what catches your eye about this game, it may or may not be to your liking after taking these things into consideration.

A simple game, honestly crude but provides just enough adventure to make it fun. Combat is floaty and laggy, but once you learn the mechanic it is easy. Your character moves faster than the enemies, so you can use terrain and different strategies without being constantly pressured by aggro. You can block and evade, combat is the typical lazy programming with 1-2-3 action swings that lock out your controls during the attack animations. Base building is just ok. It's like a mini-city builder where you have to make 1 building to gain access to another building, and have to build houses to raise population to work in those buildings, which creates demand for more buildings until eventually your town grid is filled with very little room for design or creativity. Typical city management of spamming buildings in close proximity after clearcutting nature to build an urban sprawl with a few interior/exterior decorations. The progression is linear, you make copper to access iron, then use iron stuff to access the next higher tier of kit. Map is static, play it once and you've seen al this game has to offer. Zero replay value, but still fun to play once! Worth the price …

HammerHelm presents an enjoyable blend of action role-playing, exploration, and settlement management, offering players the opportunity to lead a band of dwarves in establishing a prosperous community above ground. Built around the story of a dwarf cast out for challenging long-held traditions, the game follows a journey of proving that a new way of life is possible. This narrative gives purpose to every task, whether venturing into dangerous lands, constructing new buildings, or helping fellow settlers thrive. The combination of personal adventure and community leadership creates an experience that feels more engaging than a typical city builder or action RPG on its own. One of the game's defining strengths is how naturally it connects exploration with town development. Rather than managing a settlement entirely through menus, players personally travel across the world to gather resources, battle enemies, and uncover valuable treasures that directly support the town's expansion. Every trip into forests, abandoned mines, mysterious caves, or forgotten ruins contributes something meaningful, whether it is rare crafting materials, equipment, or supplies needed to unlock additional s…

Nah.

This is a great spaghetti RPG. All the fun elements are here, with some lacking in customization. If you are a fan of Zelda type games, this one is for you (minus the climbing and flying stuff). Sort of like an Elder Scrolls Lite, you can customize your character; craft your weapon; create a town in which you must keep everyone alive and happy; and of course, complete quests. If this does play on mobile, this would be great. The negatives I've encountered are minimal. A few game mechanic bugs; the game lacks different character models, to be offered so many character spaces, and so few choices, makes me sad. The game also lacks some depth, there's not much detail put into how things are executed, everything must be preformed the way they want you to play. Overall, I'd give this game a solid 8.5/10. Are the elements are here to be a great game, and I'd say this is one. I've played less detailed games and enjoyed them just as much. Don't let this one pass you by, it's a sleeper.

Nah not for me, pretty sure i've seen the majority of this and just don't wanna finish it pretty much everything negative in previous comments is true seemed interesting at first but it's very repetitive and very simple, yet convoluted in all the wrong ways not bad for a single dev though
