Tower Of Heresy

⠀

Originally an $11.99 game that went Free. While I appreciate the attempt to make a unique RPG Maker combat system, it's too clunky and uninteresting. Suffers from redundant UI menus that probably should have been consolidated. Efforts in a better UX as well as a unique combat system would have benefited this greatly. Poor grammar made it difficult to understand what was going on.

A wonderfully dark, punishing, and atmospheric 2D action-RPG that breathes new life into the classic hardcore dungeon-crawling genre! Stepping into the heavy boots of a lone prisoner to challenge the deadly pitfalls, traps, and terrifying monsters of the Tower is every bit as exhilarating and tense as it sounds.The gritty pixel art visual design and the vast, sprawling labyrinth layouts capture that magical, high-energy retro dark-fantasy vibe flawlessly. Balancing precise real-time combat maneuvers, experimenting with 83 distinct weapons and deep class-based active skills, and learning enemy attack patterns creates an incredibly rewarding and frantic gameplay loop. Dodging lethal ambushes, managing unforgiving mechanics, and conquering 10 massive, unique bosses keeps the dark tension at an all-time high.It is the absolute perfect, challenging single-player indie gem for testing your combat reflexes, building an unstoppable character, and surviving a world fueled by mystery—all for the grand price of absolutely free. A brilliant, tightly focused retro slasher that is a must-play for anyone missing the golden era of unforgiving, exploration-driven local PC action. Definitely recomme…

Not exactly a new game, but a lot of the difficulty is the self imposed hard line difficulty the game has built in. Limited saving, and a sharply increasing difficulty level without much explaination of character stat building that can make the game almost unplayable. If you don't focus on a core stat, you can quickly waste a couple if not several levels by trying to build a normally balanced style approach, which doesn't work with this game. You'll find yourself burning out the limited free saves and having to try to grind for levels with opponents that kill you before you can get that save in because you are burning through items that you can't easily accumulate fast enough to defeat certain foes. While the darkness level of the game is given as a warning, even with my computer's brightness and contrast turned all the way up, the game has a pretty harsh shroud of darkness in many areas. This leads to lots of ambushes and player death. I wouldn't recommend this game to a casual gamer, or someone looking for an easy game to play in their off time. Power creep is a problem in this game, and it shows. Best of luck to the more stalwart people out there who enjoy this sort of th…
