60 of 194 · most liked firstI grinded for eight hours. I saved every gold coin to eventually buy resources for crafting. After eight hours, an NPC stole all my money. Literally everything. 90k gold is gone. There were no warnings or hints. You can't reload because there are no manual saves, and the game saves automatically. It's absolutely the worst game design. Don't waste your time on this game, as it does not respect your time.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's very bad, after all these years of updates the menu navigation it's still a pos with double clicking and weird scrolling, meant for controller. An isometric rpg not having good mouse and keyboard controls is ridiculous, more even so the dev's mediocre lazy stance of "it works" or that "it's 2026 don't you guys have a controller". EDIT: Imagine running a studio and spending your time creeping on reviewers' profiles just to pull a passive aggressive 'gotcha' over a review on a completely…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not very good. Full of old archaic rpg systems that make it feel like the game came out 10 years ago instead of the 1 year ago as of when I wrote this review. The quest system is full of fetch quests and basic kill X amount of enemies missions. The rewards are all over the place from useless trash for difficult area clears to best item in the game for just running around and talking to a bunch of people and 1 dungeon. The itemization was not great either. I played a dagger rogue and there…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Don't be fooled by the claims of blend between Bauldur's Gate and Darksouls. This is purely darksouls. If you hate darksouls like i do, avoid at all cost
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Negative review because the developers attitude towards criticism is reddit r/atheism tier of pretentious and condescending snark. Regret buying.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A lot of the bosses I've fought are not difficult as much as they are tedious. The same goes for the areas. I don't understand the point of looting potions in a fighting area to not be able to use them or even change your equipment in a fighting area. It's definitely a choice to eliminate all area progress and remove all looted items when dying in an area while simultaneously considering consumables as used.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →First of all, this game is boring. I just came back to check updates and see if it got any better. I have played a helluva lot of games. This one isn't worth it. Also, the developer responds to every negative comment like a child. Every single negative comment is met with some smarmy, debate-bro tactic response as to why their opinion is wrong. How do I support a developer who responds to all negative feedback like he's debating economic strategies? It's laughable and ridiculous and his game…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Repetitive combat with fake rpg elements. The game is boring and limited at the start and becomes repetitive in the end. You don’t really get more powerful but you can make builds that nullify most other skills. But the worst parts are the devs who seem to always argue and disagree with feedback. I recommend playing Drova. Such a great game. This game is 10% content and 90% reused content. By reused content, you'll be fighting the same enemies in "maps" that function similarly. Maps are a…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Quick rundown: Pros: Gameplay (combat) feels like an isometric mix of Diablo, (insert Souls game here), and the Arkham series. Interaction between NPCs is roughly Diablo-esque or in the vein of Torchlight as far as getting missions goes. Story's surprisingly deep. The devs took time to craft the world. Set pieces are nice to look at. The bad: Not too much - a little simplistic with NPC interaction, some of the design of the cities/refuges is a maze at times and will have you hitting the…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I am NOT a souls-like game player and I LOVE this game. The first few hours (3-5) were hard as I had to learn the ropes but if you do side quests/get money and buy good gear BEFORE you start gaining 'levels' the game is much easier. Once I had decent gear the 1/2 skull dungeons fell easily. I'm still playing so that's all I've done so far but this game is excellent. I've heard there are different events/quests if you play different race and alignment??? Not sure how many 'combos' but that…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i was enjoying the game until i got robbed in a inn and lost 100k gold that from what im reading youre sol on getting it back. Sure its pretty easy to grind gold but thats just lame, slim hope to run into the npc again somewhere along the way. Game is cool tho def worthy of giving it a shot but its going to be benched for me now for a bit.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →actually get boring very soon, said baudurs gate + souls, but not at all, the combat is kinda boring, game content are nothing more than repeating similar content again and again, maybe i still at begining phase? however, if the expierence remains the same at first 9 or 10 hours, i doubt whether if the game design or guides are made wrong
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I have a bit of a mixed feeling. I love the look, I love the vibe, I love the concept. First thing I struggle with is the world. As ttrpg player, I love to delve into the setting. And while there is material to delve into, it misses identity. It builds on classic high fantasy, tries to bring some twist here and there, but subjectively speaking it wasn't enough to capture attention and love. My understanding is it was drafted by legendary Ch. Avellone and I have to say, he can do better.…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wanted to enjoy this game but its user interface is horrible. Clearly the game is designed to be cross plateform but almost everything that makes it so also makes it clunky and unpleasant to navigate on PC. personally to me it feels like the Devs had some grand ambitions (and good ideas) but gave up half way and tied a mess of what they had together to finish the game. After almost finishing the game I couldn't tell you anything interesting about a character, side quest or even the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →no yhank you im full
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Cool idea, almost completely ruined by absolutely garbage hitboxes (2-3 times larger than the actual attack at times) and janky controls that often lock you into an animation, sometimes for something you didn't even do. Like, I'm not joking, the actual idea behind the game is solid and I enjoy it for the most part, it's just not fun going through all my resources in a single fight because the enemies completely miss me by a mile but still hit anyway. Like, imagine if you were playing Dark…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's hard for me to recommend the game in its current state. On one hand, the idea of slow methodical ARPGs feels vastly unexplored and a good niche for the genre. On the other, it's completely ignorable in the game as it stands. Between Pull of the Void and Ice Cage, with some spell/talent cooldown gear, grandmaster talents, and consumables, you can permalock every enemy in the game. I didn't even use the block or parry once in my first complete playthrough, and while I still haven't visited…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Lifeless world, inane quests, mouse and keyboard while technically "useable" is so poorly implemented it's not possible to use without losing your sanity, english translation is dreadful - borderline non-sensical.. I gave this game a good bash, even waiting till I had a controller, and I just can't get into it. I like the over-all concept but its just too poorly implemented. Also many concepts are imersion breaking such as "fighting areas" and "quest givers". Lore and codex are just tedious.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Basically just full of fetch quests in a boring sandbox world.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Sorry but this game is 100% garbage and might be the most clunky game that I have ever played. Not even worth playing it if it was free because there is way better free games out there.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is still early access. There should be mention that the voice acting is AI, as it only states that they have used it for localizations, not which ones. The game's devs are Italian, so I imagine that the writing largely only makes sense in Italian. They do not state that their native language is Italian, and the first segment of voice acting is done in slow and slurred but I think at least human English. In fact, the only voice acting in the entire game according to the store page is…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very nice and complete isometric retro-styled rpg. We can feel the passion of the devs, while playing. Give it a try peoples <3
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Bad Controls: Clunky unresponsive, mouse keyboard is really bad Bad Difficulty: Game is a boring PUNISHING grind fest. Bad Writing: Lazy and cliche world building Bad Music Bad UI Good Stuff: Combat reminds me of Revenant (video game) which is one of the best compliments that I can have for an action game. Good visuals, maps made with love. I wish it would be a bit playable.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a really nifty sandbox action RPG. At first, it is stupidly hard to wrap your head around the combat, so I would recommend people to just go into their first, easiest Fight Area (FA) expecting to die. Don't use potions or anything until you can kill a room of mobs without taking damage, and when you get to that point, commit to the FA run. But once you get it, which might take like 20 minutes of trying, it should really click. There's no way to completely ignore it by playing a mage…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →skip skip skip please let me play already
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Absolutely CRAZY, as I expected it would be. TONS of great lore, very magical and very 'wow'-ness, loving how it has a sort of Lord of the Rings type of vibe, great stuff. Gameplay is great, a bunch of very cool CRPG features, fun combat and just one heck of a total package imo, including great character creation. And just to say it again, the LORE is wild! And so much of it you unlock as you go, love it. Cheers devs, great work!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Doesn't respect my time at all. Locked into dungeons, cannot access inventory, upon death everything is lost without a chance to recover any of it. Might be fine for streamers but I have limited time and I can't see anyway I could enjoy playing and leveling.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I kind of see what the game tries to go for, and although I'm definitely not a part of the target audience, I do respect an attempt at creating something new and not blindly cloning the existing formulas. Unfortunately, innovation does not make poor KBM controls any better — both action and UI controls are still not enjoyable and barely usable respectively. A game for a very particular niche player.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Интересная задумка, но крайне посредственная реализация. Разработчики попытались замиксовать что-то типа крпг + соулсы + щепотку маунт энд блейда. Большая карта, по которой можно свободно путешествовать, множество городов, в каждом из которых можно брать квесты. Очень красивые и вайбовые окружения, неплохое музыкальное сопровождение. Фентезийный мир довольно клишированный, и текста многовато местами, хотя иногда почитать все же интересно. Сами квесты бывают как продолжительными, интересными…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Game sounded nice on paper but I didn't like the game design and refunded after trying a difficulty "one-skull" starter (?) dungeon three times. It's a bit like any of the Diablo action RPGs, but with very boring generic story setup (find four parts of some item, then face boss) and huge sandbox with Diablo-like combat in dungeons, but enemies are way more difficult and tedious to fight. None of the systems felt rewarding and playing on PC but not even being allowed to click on menu items with…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not being able to leave or access inventory when entering a combat area makes no sense. 1. The door is right there, let me out. 2. I just found a potion, let me use it. Nope, I found something else and it takes place of the potion. Why??? let me put the potion back. You prepared. You fight through an area, you're low health, find potions, and walk into enemies that you know will kill you. You can't fight, you're going to die. Oops, can't drink the potions in your pocket, those are locked…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As they say I really wanted to like this game....Beautiful art, a dev that speaks like a human, countless updates etc... However I am already done after the first try in a fighting arena. As countless people told you before the difficulty spike is horrible. I am absolutely not spending time learning the ropes in a game that does not let me save and reload as I make mistakes. I died 3mins into the FA and lost 3 days and durability, thank you and good bye. Maybe it is your vision but it is not…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fairly bland overall. Clearly a lot of love went into making the scenery and it is lovely in the sort of old school baldur's gate aesthetic, but everything else just feels extremely generic. humans, elves, orcs, dwarves, go fight a demon. Wander around my very samey fight zones and awkwardly slap with a heavy attack and backstep every enemy. Don't worry about level ups they dont do anything, not do most of the skills (not that you get to try them, I played 3 hours and unlocked ONE skill, i made…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A great game for anybody who enjoys slower paced, open world, isometric action rpgs. It closely resembles two other amazing games in the same niche, Divine Divinity and Svarog's Dream, while bringing in a lot of novelty as well. The graphics are really beautfiul and the music is highly immersive. Wandering around and exploring the world is a pleasure. The combat is more methodical and interesting than in Diablo, Grim Dawn, PoE, etc., thought it can still get a bit repetetive. The build…

unlabelledView post →Calling this Baldurs Gate and Dark souls is misleading and almost got me to refund the game. Yes the combat is souls like and the perspective is isometric and the graphic are beautifuly remincesnt of Baldurs Gate. But the gameplay loop? I was expecting a CRPG but the choices inhave in the story are either "accept or dont accept quest" and "skip cutscene" So dont expect and narrative rich perosnal story development here. I was ready to dive into the lore and just felt a big wave of "meh..." So i…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game reminds me of how I felt when I was looking forward to getting Ultima 8, and how I felt when I played it and realized the game was nothing like what I was hoping for. Unlike Ultima 8, the controls in this are janky, character gets stuck easily on terrain. Constant interrupting pop-up "Press (Hold) T to continue"... I can't even give proper feedback because there are so many things that feel off that I don't even know where to begin enumerating them with proper actionable feedback.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Look, I can see the devs' good intentions and passion in this project. Too bad the project isn't all that good. I wanted to like the game at the start, but eventually, playing, you realize there isn't much there gameplay wise. And unfortunately, I'll give it a thumbs down.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not very polished, Too big of a scope where it fails in lots of parts, combat feels dull, itemization is bad, story not interesting.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've played a lot of games and I rarely leave a review but I am 100% certain these reviews are fake. This game horrible. Don't buy this trash. - The inventory management sucks ass - The combat is boring, slow and unresponsive. - overall straight dogwater. 1/10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've given this a good few hours to try and get, and the combat just has no entry point fot new players.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i still remember how i kite back then in diablo2 and nwn. When im about to lose, i just ran outside of map and heal myself. While the boss or mobs is still the same health when i whacked it. It is the most fun and sweetest memory i had when i was a kid. I guess its no more. Prolly catering to souls gen now. I also found that you can't equip potion when in battle area. And so far no fast travel. Do it challenging if you must but if you forgot about the adults that reminisce this small figure…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No games quite like it. Perfect for busy dads who love the freedom of open world but no longer have the time to explore. Bought on sale but 100% worth the full price! Combat can be clunky at times but gonna give it 9/10 (I could be bias as I'm a sucker for medieval).
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I haven't played this very long. I picked it up because Chirs Avellone was involved in it, and I buy everything he's touched. I have to say I didn't notice it had very strong worldbuilding or writing, but it has an interesting and very difficult combat system that you have to put time into mastering. I like the observation that it is an 'Isometric Dark Souls Diablo-type'. I don't really have time to learn its intricate and complex combat system and kept dying, so shelved it, but I am sure…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It looked very promising Until it didn't look promising at all.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Consumables. They either offer too little for a too short time or too much too easy. I haven't seen a game where consumables are promoted from the get-go and are easy to use and not a hussle or completely broken. Alaloth has a great iteration of consumables but I still wouldn't say it's fun as a standalone mechanic.
unlabelledView post →I am sorry for the problems the devs faced. This is the first time i am hearing about AI localizations. Personally, i don't give a single f*ck even if you had made this game with ai from top to bottom. Which is NOT. Controls of this game is a little bit hard. Game is generally very hard. You can get lost in this game not knowing where to go on the map, not knowing what you are supposed to do. Learning curve is very steep in this game. I understand these are done by design. But if people are…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's an interesting blend of CRPGs and Dark Souls. I've never played anything quite like it. The game is a bit rough around the edges, some mechanics didn't work together, starting out the game was overwhelming and a little confusing. But like 2 days later I realized couldn't put it down - the gameplay loop and combat mechanics kept me hooked until the end. I think developers went too big for their budget, but it seems like a genuine passion project and they're still adding free content…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Great game. If you like something like svarogs dream you will most likely like this. I'm not to far into it but i'm enjoying it. Good job devs.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If I could, I would elect to give this a neutral rating. I came to the conclusion that I just don't like the genre of action-isometric games. Played a few of them now and it just doesn't work for me so bear that in mind for the review. This game has a lot of content, tons of lore, and a decent amount of replay-ability. Some aspects of the game are very obscure and it doesn't help that there isn't much discussion around to help you when you get stuck. There is a wiki now but there wasn't when…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Until you fix controls in this mess, DO NOT BUY. Clunky as ♥♥♥♥. Just no.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →If you like Dark Souls-esque combat mechanics with parries and i-frame dodging with a lore-filled RPG based world, this is the game for you. I was pleasantly surprised with this gem in terms of combat mechanics and how large the world is. Timing parries is key to melee combat and paying close attention to enemy movements is important. Do not expect to roll up at level 1 and cleave a bunch of people down, you'd have to be tactical. Another note for this game is it's quite immersive. Some…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Stepped into a dungeon. Skeleton swung his sword, I ran away, ended up being hit while my character was several steps away from the skeleton. The hitboxes are crazy bad. Uninstalled.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Read before Buying…Not Local-Co Op as would be expected! In Alaloth Champions of the Four Kingdoms, the ONLY “local co op” PLAYER opportunity is DURING Player 1 SELECTED BATTLES. It is Player 1’s game, P2 can only join when requested at his/her battle. No fun. We only play “local co-op” games. This game was a gift and unfortunately, no way to preview how local co op is integrated in the game. Waste of money.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It reminds me of the original Diablo or Titan Quest. Just waves of enemies and random loot. Not having a fast travel option is a huge negative as well. If you like really old style games with minimal voice acting, lots of reading, and terrible quest markers, this is your game.
