Mildy entertining grindfest of phones
I loved playing pen and paper RPG's as a kid. The only limit of building incredible worlds to play in, was our own imagination. Yeah, there was also some rules and grinding and dice rolling, but that was merely a framework for our grand adventures. This game however is ALL about grinding dicerolling. It's a bare-bones tactical rpg experience, with little to no stories in between battles. The game is this kind of a tongue-in-cheek, retro-style nerd reference collection, which is cute, innocent but also a little tiresome. I originally bought this game for my phone, and I have to say, it was a fun distraction. Fast, quite strategical, turn based battles, very little text to read, lots of loot and slow but constant character building (mathematically, of course). And ideal little game to play on my way to work. On a PC however, there's not much reason to play it, when there are much better options out there (yeah, I have no idea why i bought it on steam as well. I guess it was discounted). The content here is just very limited. I don't know how much of it is automatically generated, I believe most of them are individually crafted - as most of them only consist of about three speech bubbles and a couple of encounters. When a game's this compact, the framework is this limited, little balancing problems (my level 20 priest became practically indestructible, spending most of his time healing up my level 21 paladin, who got constantly ruined in battle), the lack of variation, and constant grinding really starts to get into the way of joy. Also, though it's a pc port, there're still microtransactions available. It's not needed, and it messes up the flow and the economy, but the possibility is there. It really shouldn't be. All in all, we're not on the phone anymore, and this just doesn't cut it as a crpg. It's in the tradition of coffeebreak games, and if that's what you're after, then get this one. If you want more depth in an rpg, buy Wizardry 8 (for 2 dollars less).
