The HELL

This is a great game with one absolutely crippling flaw so far... every minute or so a Titan will rumble and cause an earthquake that destroys roads and collapsed buildings. The player ends up spending approximately 50% of their time rebuilding roads (destroyed ones just vanish) and manually clicking repair on collapsed buildings one by one (there are basically no construction tools). This is supposed to be a Hell simulator but as a result of this design decision it becomes a rebuilding roads simulator. Incredibly annoying.

WOW. this game is so interesting especially the endless mode. is actually criminal that this game is under my radar so for long. A true city builder .... going oplay more to see more of this TITAN boss

[Edited] The Hell is a visually interesting take on a standard city builder. The guided tutorial is excellent. It gradually introduces primary and secondary resource production. There is an interesting story unfolding as the game updates and promises a fulfilling ending. The game is Early Access and currently has the first 3 of 6 campaign mission maps with the promise of a seventh surprise mission map.

It's very rare that I leave a review because, to be honest, I only ever read the first one or two top rated reviews and that's enough for me to decide on a game, so I don't think anyone will read my musings. However, The HELL deserves one of my rare rambling reviews. This game has the perfect mix of city builder, story growth, plus carnage to throw you off track and keep you entertained. Yes, the instant karma and destruction of your hard-earned hellscape because you made one mistake several moves ago drives you crazy. Yes, the fact that you can't do a proper save and have to start each level again when you screw up is irritating. But it's the good kind of irritating and annoyance. It's the kind that makes you scream at the screen in sheer agony, and then click start again. Graphics are okay to incredible (depending on element), sound I can't comment on because I turn sound off or on low on most games, movement around the screen can be a bit clunky (I wish I could rotate the map. Am I missing something or is this really not possible?) overall though, who cares? The actual game, the challenge and the storyline are gripping. Oh the emotions when you finally achieve a level! Bliss! …

I wish I had read about the AI voice-over before buying. It sounds so uninspired. Even a developer pretending to be some D&D character would have sufficed. A little creativity!

Phew... I gave that game not much time to impress me but it is simply very boring. The design, the gameplay, the narrator, the entire game loop. The idea is pretty cool, thats why i bought that game. But while i thought i play something like Frostpunk... the game is simply boring. Nothing really catching my eye, nothing that is interesting to explore. The graphic is not worth talking about... gives me PS2 vibes. May for some people this can be a cool game but in my case, i refund it. Sorry devs.
