✦ AI summary

Knights of Grumthorr is an action RPG-RTS hybrid that shows promise with character progression and tactical potential, but struggles with poor pathfinding, unclear UI, and a lack of depth in its combat targeting system. Players report steep difficulty spikes with insufficient guidance on strategy, leaving many frustrated by the learning curve and wanting more refined mechanics. While some appreciate the medieval fantasy atmosphere and character development systems, most reviewers suggest the game needs significant work on its core systems before it's worth recommending.

So, I’ve got this game through curator connect an played it a bit and it just did not connect with me. Effectively this is a top-down mix between action RPG and RTS. Unfortunately, the game lacks in-depth tactical components (or at least I could not find them) such as targeting the enemy, the path-finding was also very poor. In its current state I cannot recommend this game. The game certainly has its niche, but requires more work in the UI and AI components. [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/7279488-One-Grumpy-Russian/]One Grumpy Russian[/url] score 3/10 – this game reminds me of alcohol free beer, good idea, but it lacks a kick and won’t be popular.

The difficulty spikes pretty quick in the campaign and there is no hint at what you're supposed to do to not be instantly annihilated.

Игра 'Knights of Grumthorr' - это достойный представитель жанра RPG с элементами стратегии. Мне понравилась глубокая система развития персонажей и возможность влиять на исход сражений своими тактическими решениями. Графика, хоть и не самая передовая, обладает приятным стилем и хорошо передает атмосферу средневекового фэнтези. Сюжет, на первый взгляд, кажется простым, но по мере продвижения открываются интересные повороты и мотивы персонажей. Исследование мира вознаграждается находками сокровищ и встречей с уникальными врагами. Боевая система не даст заскучать, благодаря разнообразию умений и необходимости учитывать сильные и слабые стороны противников. Однако, стоит отметить некоторую сложность в освоении игровых механик на начальном этапе. Не помешал бы более подробный туториал. В целом, игра оставляет положительное впечатление и может увлечь на десятки часов тех, кто любит продуманные RPG с тактическими боями. Рекомендую к ознакомлению!

[h1]Before I played Knights of Grumthorr, I had a small pp, no friends, no gf, depression, and no life. These things havent changed, but the game is pretty good[/h1]

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
