Unepic

Too much fun! Clever, intelligent and witty. If you've ever played a tabletop RPG, this is great. I say, great.

Great charecter design, great map design, plot that actually makes sense, ok humor Just the perfect Metroidvania. (Ghost 1.0 by same developer is also great)

It's a great game, I enjoyed it a lot. It's not easy but it funny. If you liked La Mulana and wanted a more RPG version, you'll have great times with Unepic. The best part is that you can port this version to Mac easily with Wineskin.

I'm not a big fan of the Metroidvania genre, but I'm having a lot of fun with this. The RPG elements, make it so much more interesting.

Unepic follows the classic formula of a lone adventurer hacking his way through a giant castle. It has everything you'd expect from this sort of game, and it is all executed quite well: *A simple but good RPG leveling system. New levels always feels meaningful, and there are good strategic choices to make about which stats to improve. *Huge inventory that gives plenty of options for which type of weapon to use, with upgrades coming regularly as you reach new areas. *Good, varied environments to explore. *A good map system, complete with note-taking options. A novel torch lighting exploration mechanic is surprisingly rewarding. *Good combat with appropriate difficulty. Smart play and skill are rewarded, while sloppiness is punished. *Gamepad support for this game is good in the current GOG version (and I do recommend using one). Story-wise, there's nothing special. The game's hook about being an ordinary slacker transported to a magic castle is utilized mainly to pepper nerd culture references throughout the game. The humor is hit and miss---mostly miss, with a few jokes going beyond falling flat to inducing outright groans. Still, the writing is a very minor piece of the game, and I never found it to detract from the experience. All things considered, I loved the time I spent with Unepic. If the gameplay footage in the trailer appeals to you at all, you should love this game too.
