Roads of time

"Roads of Time" is a mobile app that's been dumped on Steam as a paid product, as if it was a real PC game (it's not)... it's a cash grab from greedy mobile devs and Russian asset flip copy + paste shovelware game pushers at 8Floor. These guys have dumped reskins of the same games literally hundreds of times onto Steam, polluting the place and making gaming worse for everyone. And this mobile app of theirs is no exception. "Roads of Time" is a pointless "12 Labours of Hercules" screen tapper/clicker mobile app. There's no gameplay, just tapping on the screen. The mobile app is made to look like you're making interesting decisions as you're presented with a map of a town/village/pathway that has you clicking on various things to collect things which are then consumed when you click on an obstacle, which unlocks more things to click on. This is so lame and shallow, you could write a script to randomly click the screen and given enough time, it would beat the game. The shady developer behind this valueless shovelware has proven to be a persistent nuisance abusing Steam Direct... they've dumped over a hundred valueless mobile app tier asset flips onto Steam, many featuring plagiar…

A little easier than I expected. Also most levels have some elements which are not needed to complete them. Overally fun game.

This game is awesome, very simple and very fun game to playing for relaxing time

I bought and played some of this game before I realized that this is the "standard" version, not the Collector's Edition that has additional levels and a strategy guide. It's a decent game, but I'd look elsewhere considering the prohibitive price here on Steam for this lower grade edition.

I was unable to get Steam achievements after several tries and several re-installs even though other players said they were getting them. It seems that they are only available if you play in "high complexity" mode which is not the way I like to play. I prefer to play "relaxed" (build all buildings to the maximum level). The way I play probably ends up with as much or more in-game time as the "high complexity" mode (many restarts to find the most efficient way to complete each level). Sooo... no achievements unless playing in high complexity would equate to a negative review from me. HOWEVER... the one saving grace is that if you run out of time you can continue to the next level (not an automatic replay). So with that in mind I am giving a thumbs up because other than achievements only awarded in high complexity mode, this is otherwise a decent time management game.
