This game looks like an ARPG but it plays more like a Warcraft III mod hero RPG. The game has extremely slow character progression and many flaws that add up to a product that's hard to enjoy. You control all the characters, having to swap between them to use abilities. Given the character's small health pools and short ability cooldowns, controlling multiple characters is pretty frustrating. If all your characters die you have to start the map over losing all progress. You can load a save but there's no checkpoints or autosave. Difficulty is inconsistent, you can be cruising through easy fights and suddenly hit a group that rolls you before you can react. I had to get in the habit of manually saving after every single encounter, which was pretty annoying. Sometimes characters don't attack enemies that are attacking them or their allies and sometimes they don't acquire a new target when their current target dies. You have to monitor your characters carefully to make sure they're not standing around dying without fighting back. Other minor issues include lack of UI scaling, only 3 skill slots, unit positioning, character selection issues, etc. I did like the feed skill system…1 found this helpful
I will revisit this review when I have played more, but at this early point... These controls are abhorrent, as is the camera. This game is clumsy. I need a breather before I try it again.
It's always worth the time it takes to slay goblins.
Boring and stale with no redeeming factors to it.
Neat little character-focused RTS. Story is basic, but has a neat twist. The camera is difficult to deal with at times. Overall decent.
Cool game
