May seem overpriced, but it's fair.
This is a re-release of a game which is no longer available. It costs more than the original base game, but costs roughly the same as the complete edition and contains all the same content (as far as I can tell). This edition is the only way to buy it nowadays, but it can be found in many storefronts (not just my beloved GoG.) The more modern version is more optimised, good to see. Let's discuss the game itself now. ------------------------------------------------- Sin Slayers Reign of the 8th (hereafter just called Sin Slayers) is a turn-based combat game with an emphasis on mission exploration and crafting. The set up is simple: We're in some kind of Limbo state/reality and we need to destroy boss monsters which personify the Seven Deadly Sins. That's it. That's the entire game. The seven sin realms are where the rogue-lite comes into it - your characters will never permanently die (How can they? You're outside the divine framework etc) and the realms change every time you return. There are only a few things guaranteed to appear: The Sin Boss Monster and a fountain so you can heal. You then travel around the local area, revealing the squares underneath the fog of war. What will the newly-revealed square have on it? Could be anything. A merchant. An enemy. A trap. Enemies. An extra fountain. An area quest. Nothing special at all. The area Boss. Another hero to join the party. Again - it could be ANYTHING. And that's where the true game is - how do you approach THAT aspect of it? You can return to your HQ at any time, with no meaningful losses. ====================================== About that price: For every dollar (AUD) that I spend on a game, I expect 1 hour of play. This game costs $30 AUD, so I'd need to get thirty hours out of it for to consider it 'good value'. I currently have over 10 hours and I'm not even close to getting bored with it. I can see I've barely scratched the surface. I consider it GREAT value.
