Labyrinth of Aetheria

ive been playing dungeon crawlers for most of my 56 years of life and this is really hitting the spot for me. Enjoying it immensely The dev is highly professional and quite active in the threads Updates and hotfixes are incoming steadly All in all im glad the dev made this game and made it available to steam

Amazing game. If you like old dungeon crawlers like Wizardry, then you'll love this. This game auto-maps, big plus. They also improved party wipe from Wizardry. If you wipe, the game just restores a save from when you last entered the dungeon. No sending rescue parties looking for bodies. lol Once you've identified all of the vendors, you'll probably feel overwhelmed at the gold cost for all of the skills and spells. Just make sure you do quests, they reward nice amounts of gold. When picking locks, if you don't just immediately click for an attempt, you'll realize that the character's meter is actually fluctuating and may reach high enough for success if you time it. Another tip, the stairs beside the Pumpkin guy will reset him, if you want to farm over and over. It is rewarding for levels and items before tackling floor 2.

Since they released a patch I thought I would leave an early review and I will update it later. Things I like: I can create advanced classes right away. The graphics are excellent and the monsters are very cute but also bad. There are TONS of treasure chests and they give you more frequent item drops than regular wizardry. This game runs very smooth. Front and back ranks with weapon ranges. I love the magic system - you have magic points, you buy the spells you want, and you use spell points to cast whatever you want. The item descriptions are very good - you can easily tell what you can equip and what each item will do. The translation to English is excellent. Sleeping doesn't make you age. You don't lose stats at level up. Basically, the game is super fun, and I haven't even gone past the skull door on the first level. People are talking about 4 floors! I feel like I am in for some fun. If you like Wizardry, Bard's Tale, old Might and Magic, Legends of Amberland, then you will LOVE this game. Also, I have experienced no crashes. And most importantly, the game is not "dark". It is very wholesome so far and I am hoping for a happy ending after defeating the evil, too. Things I …

I've almost 100% the game, and it's been pretty fun. I was surprised how deep the dungeon goes. Also, the game opened up when I thought it would be over. I'm enjoying chasing loot items, (which the game has a pretty large collection of compared to like the old Final Fantasy games) I like you have to explore a lot, some parts you will have to come back to later to progress. I like that you can get a special reward once a day of your choosing to make your runs easier. I like the classes can be changed and you still keep your hp or mana and if you were a spell caster you still keep the spells you learned. The only things I have not liked were usability issues. It's super tedious having to open menu screen and having to navigate to a specific character, down to a specific "bag" to then manually filter through to find an item and send it to your character that is often full inventory already and having to move one thing to the "bag". This happens almost every fight. If they removed the artificial inventory limit so you could just click on and use the object in a couple of clicks it would be awesome. As far as balance goes. I think early game felt appropriately difficult, the end game…

Part way through the game, very old school, very enjoyable, developer responds to question, problems quickly. I recommend this game for any who enjoy 80s/90s computer RPGs.

it's a good little game. I'm a few hours in and enjoying it so far. Lots of classes to choose from and you can swap in and out characters whenever you're in town. I'm looking forward to seeing where it lands at full release.
