COMBAT

✦ AI summary

Slay the Dragon! is a charming, brief adventure with adorable visuals and an engaging soundtrack that players appreciate as a wholesome pick-me-up, though its short length and lack of replayability limit its longevity. While most players found the gameplay fun and controls smooth, some encountered technical issues like crashes and missing save features that detracted from the experience. Players generally recommend it as a free game worth trying, though the technical stability concerns may frustrate some players.

You can finish the games in less than an hour. It's super cute and fun to play. (But it doesn't have much replayability) Overall it's a wholesome little game that can cheer you up after a long day.

It's a beautiful looking game with a great soundtrack and smooth controls. However, when I played it, there wasn't a save feature so I restarted the game 3 times before I gave up trying to get through it.

Ten whole minutes and it crashed on me twice. I'm sad, because the art style is fantastic and the gameplay while simplistic is the kind I can go behind. But as I've said right at the start, unplayable for me. I think this is the "curse" for student projects I guess. I sincerely hope they got everything they wished the years prior to this game's release date :)
