[h1][b]Legendary Highwayman[/b][/h1] [i]Juro Jánošík – a thief who took from the rich and gave to the poor, leader of a band of highwaymen and a Slovak legend. He and his gang never killed any of their victims. Everything was going well, but one day Juro finds out that one of his best men is imprisoned in one of Slovakia's many castles. He decides to help him no matter what, and this is where your adventure begins.[/i] The first castle is Strečno. Here you will learn the basics of the game: how to control your character and what to do. Your main task is to find enough ducats and give them to the villagers. There are also two optional objectives. The first is to find and free captives, and the second is to find resources to build a camp, which will give you two points to boost your stats: health, speed, stamina and strength. There are only five camps, so you can't max out all your stats. Use your points wisely. Resources are water, which gives you unlimited stamina for a moment, bread and carrots, which regenerate your health, rope and ammunition for your pistol. You can also find a bomb. At each level, two obstacles will complicate your journey. The first are simple puzzles to op…6 found this helpful

It's a fun game to play, but... Juro Janosik is a video game about a Slovak highwayman. Janosik is usually compared to historical figures like Robin Hood. I don't want to get into details because, you guessed it, that's a Steam review, and I should talk about the actual game. As I said, we can compare Juro Janosik to Robin Hood. The main objective of this game is to collect gold and give it to the poor villagers. As a player, you have ten castles to visit and plunder them. Those castles exist in modern Slovakia and look similar to those in the real world. What about the gameplay? Well... As I started, it was a fun game to play. Combat is simple and entertaining, as are the puzzles (Except for one segment in Zborov). So where is the problem? Let's start with bugs. Things like unconscious pandurs "flowing" toward the bell are incredibly annoying. Sometimes, the game does not register hits to enemies. I fell from the map because I was looking for a map and realized it was in one of the villagers' houses (The small alley behind the rock, close to castle doors). Sometimes pandurs can see you when you are behind them. That's all, maybe I missed something. Let's talk about the mo…2 found this helpful
I like this low poly visual Chilled music Slovak language + Slovak voices of enemies Castles Story perfektná hra !
nice little game that will keep you occupied for a few evenings. i found the biggest challenge to be rather clumsy controls, though with practice you can find your way though even the seemingly impossible-to-overcome obstacles.
This is a nice, original, top down, isometric platformer. You are playing as the folk hero of Slovakia "Juro Janosik". In short - he was like Robin Hood. It is also good for kids as there is no blood or killing. Enemies get stunned and you tie them with rope. Once not stunned they will squirm like worms and call for help. Or keep ordering you to release them :) [b]I liked the game a lot, but there are problems.[/b] Controls and some technical decisions. I was able to tolerate its flaws in control and sometimes slow responses in certain situations, but when the next difficulty kicked in - not any longer. I felt frustrated that although you have a mouse, the only thing you control is the direction of your pistol. Although you can, it is very cumbersome to shoot. It is hard to hit, especially moving targets. Animation is too long, making it hard to use and ammunition is scarce. [i]Anyone recalls the game changing event of controlling old Doom with mouse and not with keyboard?[/i] Another issue is that you attack with melee only in the direction you are facing. You turn with keyboard and not mouse. Making your reactions a bit slower. Why can I not swing my valaska (your weapon) whe…
