"Heart of the Emberstone: Coliseum" is not a game. It's an advertisement for a product called "The Gallery". The Gallery is a VR tech demo where you just wave your arms around in VR to magically move things around, using telekineses to solve problems... it's ho-hum and certainly not worth the $30. But this isn't completely relevant because this is not The Gallery, it's just an advertisment for it, so it's not correct to try to review that completely distinct product. We must instead review this for what it is... an advertisement. If you enjoy advertisements, you can consume them for free on the web or on Youtube without needing to add them to your game library, download them, and then launch the advertising. It's impossible in a general sense to recommend people should do that over playing real, full games on Steam, and that applies here with "Heart of the Emberstone: Coliseum" too. The goal here is to get you to spend [b]$30 USD[/b] on [i]The Gallery[/i]. I don't recommend you get suckered, or reward these kinds of shady, deliberately misleading marketing practices.

Игра 'Heart of the Emberstone: Coliseum' оказалась приятным сюрпризом. Сначала я скептически отнесся к концепции арены с элементами рогалика, но геймплей затягивает с первых же минут. Динамичные бои, разнообразие противников и возможность прокачивать персонажа с помощью интересных перков не дают заскучать. Особенно порадовала система лута. Нет ощущения, что ты просто бездумно собираешь мусор. Каждая находка может кардинально изменить твою тактику и дать преимущество в бою. Конечно, есть и недостатки. Графика выглядит немного устаревшей, а сюжет присутствует скорее для галочки. Тем не менее, геймплейные достоинства с лихвой компенсируют эти минусы. В целом, 'Heart of the Emberstone: Coliseum' - отличный выбор для тех, кто ищет увлекательную игру на несколько вечеров. Рекомендую попробовать, если вам нравятся динамичные бои и рогалики.

Controls are to way to sensitive and clunky and its nearly impossible to play seated, in fact I was stuck on the 'playspace' menu for 10 minutes as you have to physically walk forward, nearly outside of the marked play area, to choose an option, that made no difference to the controls. Gave up in the starting room after 5 minutes due to frustration.

Buggy demo with horrid controls, lag, and broken features
