Worlds of Chaos: Invasion

This is a neat little game. Gameplay Notes: - Plays more like Baldur's Gate, not Diablo. Hit spacebar to pause and issue orders. You can issue individual orders or control the whole party at once. - All melee, creatures and players alike, will automatically backstab if behind the enemy. Even knights with maces. So melee tactics involve getting behind enemies while not letting them get behind you. In a perfect scenario, the creature is facing and attacking one melee while all other melees are standing behind it and backstabbing like crazy. - Big-damage hits will add an "injury" to the victim which lowers all stats. Injuries and corresponding stat lowerings can stack multiple times. So it's often beneficial to attack multiple enemies at once, rendering them all very weak, as opposed to focus-firing and taking them down one-by-one. - The game is not impossible, but it's not easy either. I put it on the easiest setting and still suffered a few deaths (but no TPWs!). A typical example: Travelling along, you encounter a large group of enemies. Run away to clear aggro & regroup, then creep up slowly with one character to "pull" a few at a time back to the group. Pros: - Good depth …

A fine little game with an active developer. He listens and works to incorporate ideas from his consumers. The combat system is unique and believe me you will need to learn how spells and skills work. Might be a niche game but I like it. 5/30/19 Developer continues to update the game. He now made the tutorial optional and since I already know how to play I don't have to redo this every time I start a new game. the polish and refinements have shown through time and the game just keeps getting better. I really love it. Edit 10/21/21 For CRPG fans I HIGHLY recommend this game. Though I mostly love turn-based, this is more of a real time with pause, but it is..better than the way tripple A titles do it. For instance In most CRPG's, the party all try and focus on one threat at a time. Yeah that don't work here. See what happens here is, as you and enemies take damage your combat performance decreases. Sureyour party could all jump one guy and take him out relatively quickly, but then you would face the rest of the pack who have no combat malus, while your party is now fighting an uphill battle that is going to get worse and worse with the ole "jump one guy at a time" tactics. In t…

This game had a lot of promise, however I have not seen any updates from the dev in a long time. It is unfortunate as I think if it would have stayed under active development it would have been a great game.

Had quite a lot of promise, but the EA dice rolled:"Vapor" or "Vapour" depending on which side of the Atlantic you live.

I don't know if this game ever had promise, but the combat AI runs spellcasters into melee, and they aggro the hell out of melee fighters. Also, there is no save feature to protect against such "system" issues. Avoid.

I recommend this game to anyone who enjoys old school RPGs. This game is engaging and fun. It is also challenging. I played it a while back on my previous computer. I think I gave up on the last boss, or something. I'm starting another playthrough. Do not expect super graphics or voice acting, but it is a very fun hack and slash, nonetheless. I see it as a tactical RPG, because your battle start often determines the outcome. I don't know why Steam still says early access, but it's a complete and large game. Have fun, Draco 🪶
