The game is cool, but there are only 11 levels in the game, including the tutorial level. In fact, several of the first few levels have some measure of hand holding, even on hard mode. Finished the single player campaign in 7 hours (again, hard mode). I don't think I'll be playing much more, despite the online mode, which I haven't looked at... I'd probably get my ass handed to me and I don't want to practice to become competent for multiplayer.
I bought this game in alpha and watched it grow. And well... it didn't evolve to masterpiece but it didn't promise that nor it had to! It's easy to grasp and deep enough to get you going. It is mainly built around multiplayer, though (with 1v1 only). Storyline is nice addition and I treat it like a tutorial to know different maps and how to achive different victory points while playing skirmish online, with AI (this lacks challenge) or on one computer with friend (but this is pretty tricky, as you shouldn't know what your opponent is exactly doing, so no peeping on opponent's turn).
What I really like about this game is it's dependence on skill instead of luck (still involed yet minimal). Skill tree is the same every game, as is your possibility of growth. Game plays around player decisions based on situation on board. I guess you can say only your talent for thievery and plotting stands beetwen you and victory screen.
To sum it up - this is not a game for long hours of playthrough. For me it's a digital board game, pretty quick strategy game. I know I will come back to it from time to time for a few matches. Because it does a really good job with being what it is. No more no less.
PS. Game have some minor issues here and there - I dislike exploring map as in some specific situations you can't choose exactly which three fields you want to uncover. Also it would be nice to have some feedback about which building/street are you currently hovering because missclicks sometimes happen. But all this is nothing major - if I could I would give it 4.5/5.
PPS. Wooohooo, my first review on GOG :)
5 stars for the beautiful art, the nice sounds
5 stars for the gameplay that is really interesting, it's a board game style game with some ressource management a bit of tactics involved, some random stuff, unique enough to everything else I have played to stand on its own. It worked without any problems on Windows 10 and will also work on older PCs, since it doesn't need a high end machine.
2 stars for the very short single player campaign that is more of a long tutorial with a huge spike in difficulty after the first three maps. To make this clear, the single player content is fine, the little "story" was enough to keep me going, but for about 15 € (normal price) that is not enough. Especially if you are not much interested in multiplayer mode.
I took my time with the game, had to try a while to get over the difficulty spike and was done in about 20 hours. I will probably not open the game again, which is sad.
There is a "tweak your games" mode and an online mode, which are not much of interest for me, but might for you and help to get a better deal than I feel that I got.
If you want a comparison, then I would compare this a bit to "A Druid's Duel" that has a much longer single player campain though.
All in all and since I got the game reduced on Winter Sale I am fine with my purchase. If you have someone that can play the game with you in its multiplayer mode than it can be nice to kill each others gangs and steal stuff in front of the others nose. I wasn't able to test this feature yet though.
The campaign is entirely a tutorial for the multiplayer component. The game itself is really enjoyable, with quite a few interesting options.
I find this genre of games really interesting: if you want a challenging strategy game, you have to play against other humans -- AIs are just too dumb. So your options are to play an RTS, where the advantage will go to the player who can click and use keyboard shortcuts fastest; or to play a game like Antihero, where the turn-based nature of the game means you actually have to focus on strategy. 4Xs like Civ are just too long to play against other players, and their balance isn't great either.
As a member of the 'challenging strategy' sub-genre (as I call it), Antihero is great. You can play asynchronous games where you play a turn whenever you get a chance. The game mechanics are fairly unique, and there's very little use of randomness, making it easy to reason about future moves. It won't blow you away, but it's a solid title that's recommended, but only if you're willing to play multiplayer.
Loved the music, the voices, and the whole Dickensian feel of the game. It is rather short, as it was mentoned by other reviewers; but every chapter can be replayed again, and there are many ways to win, so you can try them all at your leisure. Taking a pacifistic route, relying on sabotage and blackmail to gain the power, or using killers and kidnappers to break your enemies the hard way.
The hint for a possible sequel pleases me.
