Description
A new kind of RPG awaits you. A story-rich dungeon crawler with innovative real-time combat that lets you pause or slow time. Tactical thinking is essential to succeed. Enter the mysterious Tower of Time and experience the incredible adventures that lie within.



Tower of Time is an incredible adventure packed with over 50 hours of gameplay, hand-crafted levels, and a rich story told through cinematics. Taking classic RPG gameplay to the next level, Tower of Time features flexible character development, thousands of pieces of loot and equipment and the complex and tactical Arrow-Time real-time combat system.

Engaging story of epic proportions

Immerse yourself in a world where technology meets magic with devastating consequences. Gather a group of diverse champions and lead them through the tower. Hundreds of lore books and scattered pieces of information slowly reveal the history of Artara as your party of adventurers approach their fate.

Deep tactical real-time combat with pause or slow-time

Take ultimate strategic control of each battle with the Arrow-Time combat system that slows the action down to a crawl or pauses it. Plan ahead and position your party where you need them for ultimate effect. Use Arrow-Time to react to new threats, deploy devastating new spells and attacks and counter enemy attacks. No two encounters are ever the same. On harder difficulties - look at each battle as a tactical puzzle.

Features:

  • 7 Unique character classes, each with different strengths and weaknesses.
  • Complex skill system with two exclusive enhancement trees and multitude of options.
  • Skill Gestures - draw some of the skills as you want.
  • Gravity manipulation – leap large distances to scatter your enemies or draw them in.
  • Rich equipment system.
  • 150 enemies with unique skills and tactics.
  • Face 50 Bosses wielding a diverse range of skills and spells.
  • Five difficulty levels, including Epic difficulty (not recommended for new players).
  • Multiple combat modes ensure that there's plenty of variety and fresh challenges ahead.
  • Travel through hand-crafted levels that have been carefully designed to challenge you.
  • New character progression system.
  • Unique Party Alignment system.
  • Combat Challenges, designed to test your tactical and party-building skills.
  • Crafting, enchanting, legendary items.
  • Upgradeable city.

The game might seem to be a little formulaic to veterans of CRPGs but it is not without innovations of its own. For developer Event Horizon, Tower of Time is an astounding entry that gives fans of the CRPG genre something different to sink their teeth into.

7.8/10
Tower of Time is a rather enjoyable cRPG featuring an extremely engaging real-time battle system and some unusual mechanics, like its leveling system. While the story may not break away from some of the genre clichès, Tower of Time keeps players entertained with its charming characters, unique setting and well-crafted mechanics.

Fun, fun, fun

This Dungeon Crawler is a blast. It seems everyone is a game critic these days. Take the reviews (including mine) w/a grain of salt. I played this in between Vaporum and The Legend of Grimrock II. It was a nice break and took me all week to play through it. Buy it on sale and you have nothing to lose but a week of your time. lol

Your average isometric view RPG

It looks and sounds quite good, but the game itself is just an average RPG whose elements you've seen before in a 1000 others. It is rather linear as well, which is minus point for me. Another minus, you have to use the supplied characters, you can't fully create your own. It's basically similar to "Torchlight" without the tons of junk and is slower paced. Levelling up is rather pathetic also. Oh and the rigid camera angles do not help. I played for one evening then the next decided to call it a day when I hit two "impossible" battles. I could have restarted on an easier difficulty setting (I started on "normal" - I don't recommend you do this) but I could see this problem happening again later in the game, and it just didn't make me want to keep on playing to see what's next. I also have many other as yet untried games to get around to - life's too short too waste too much of it on Tower of Time. "Tower of Don't Give it Much Time" would be a better title! :D In just one word, it's "humdrum". And that's why it was given away on a free offer a while ago........ do NOT pay the full £19.49 for it.

Fun and enjoyable, especially for price

If you're bad at games, this one you still might be okay at. DIablo 3 style topdown / art but also a more robust dnd style campaign. Story is a little weak but still engaging. Puzzles could probably be a bit more confusing, but still cool.

Amazing game

Story 7.5/10 Game Play 8/10 Graphic 7/10 Music/Voice 6/10 Amazing little gem, The mechanics and game play is really engaging. Mixing CRPG with Real time strategy fight. a unique lvl system that focus on gold upgrade and combining gear/Enchantment/forge upgrade. The only down side: Straight forward linear gameplay experience.
