Runic Rampage - Action RPG

This is somewhat enjoyable, but the gameplay is too clunky. Your attacks continue on for at least one attack after you try to stop them. Why you are attacking this difficult to control if more than one optic. The graphics are the blockiest I have seen in an isometric RPG.

Runic Rampage, developed and published by Electrocosmos, is a gritty indie action RPG that embraces the raw, old-school spirit of hack-and-slash dungeon brawlers while layering in procedural variety and light role-playing progression. The game places you in the role of Grimbard, a furious dwarf warrior on a personal crusade to recover the shattered fragments of a powerful rune stone that once safeguarded his homeland. This simple but effective narrative framework provides a clear motivation for the relentless combat and forward momentum that define the experience, grounding the action in a classic fantasy revenge tale rather than elaborate world-building. Combat is the unquestionable centerpiece of Runic Rampage, and it wastes little time getting to the point. From the first encounter, the game emphasizes close-quarters brutality, with heavy melee strikes that feel weighty and aggressive. Weapons slam into enemies with satisfying force, splattering blood and reinforcing the dwarf’s raw physicality. Encounters are often dense, throwing groups of enemies at the player and encouraging constant movement, positioning, and crowd control. Boss fights punctuate progression with more deman…

A nice little game with suprisingly deep combat and variety in money management. It's not an absolute masterpiece but I had a good time beating it. Some of the achievements require hours of grinding though. A shame that armours are just for looks. I want to believe that that whole nostalgic early-Blizzard visual vibe is a love letter to the simplier times :)

nice little game to pass the time. easy gameplay and leveling system.

Very fun hack and slash game that kind of reminds me of games like Diablo and Torchlight. The game is quite simple and can get repetitive in long gaming sessions but there's actually some good replayability here, I appreciated that you can unlock different cosmetic outfits for your dwarf. I wasn't personally a fan of some of the achievements being kind of grindy but I had fun playing the New Game Plus mode regardless and got 100% completion. There's not a ton of strategy here but an actually decent story and a solid gameplay loop, if you like hack and slash straightforward games give this a shot!

Really should make sure I write these immediately after finishing the game. I remember I liked it, but that it was also a grind of replaying areas to get 100%
