60 of 203 · most liked firstTower of Time's gameplay is a good concept that feels unpolished and a little undercooked. I can see what they were pulling from, the combat in this game makes me think of WarCraft 3, specifically the missions where you only have a handful of hero units to work with, each with their own abilities and characteristic that make them unique. On the face this seems great, the problems come in with how they try to implement it. The game is 90% combat but you fight in the same arenas over and…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tower of Time is a real-time-with-pause isometric RPG from Event Horizon, mixing classic dungeon crawling with some modern twists. While it looks like a straightforward fantasy romp at first glance, it hides a surprisingly deep tactical layer beneath its story and setting. You descend into a mysterious upside-down tower buried deep in the earth. The narrative unfolds piece by piece as you go deeper, told through text segments, environmental clues, and companion banter. The world has a…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Later part of the Story locks a few of your Heroes for some time. If you only invested into these and ignored all others you are stuck. No fun at all. Story was really good till then despite the combat becoming a little bit repetetive
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Was going good for a bit - a different take on CRPG combat and a solid "what is this tower and why is it here" story line that hooked you in. I appreciated that it was fairly linear and that not every new character that joined the party required 10 fetch quests. It would be cool to get some closure to the story - but the final level I guess decides to eliminate half your party so you're forced to upskill and equip the other party members to make progress - and I'm sure I can find something…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is a hidden gem in the RPG genre – it definitely deserves more attention. You can see that it was developed passionately by people who love their work. The mysterious and captivating story takes you to a tower buried upside down in the ground to unveil its hidden secrets. The combat system is quite original, as the battlefield occurs in a more detailed location than the standard map. The real-time/pause mechanics enable players to carefully plan their actions against approaching…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →No. I have been playing with the hope the game gets better later on: As the characters level up, the items get more powerful, new spells, abilities and companions show up, thinking that surely I am only at the start and the game will get better as I progress... No, it doesn't. Every step of progression is dull, boring and underwhelming. Your characters don't level up with exp, they don't get any exp from fights. You search for building upgrades that raise your max level cap and gather gold…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is a real time with pause, isometric dungeon crawler game with interesting but short (game time doesn't reflect it) story. For some reason people tagged it as turn based but it isn't, you can just pause the game but everyone acts simultaneously. The game consists of about 10 floors, where you fight different type of enemies on each floor. You might think that it adds to the freshness of the game, and in a way it does, but it isn't enough because each floor forces 10-20 separate wave…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Just finished the game and I have to admit I feel perplexed. It started off as something that could have been one of my favourite games and ended up dropping the ball completely. Alright, lets start with the good and we will go from there. An interesting premise and setting. Nice characters. Neat and interesting locations, rather unorthodox level design. A cool upgrade system giving you a lot of flexibility in that you can always reset your skills. Plenty of loot, both to gather and an…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is one of those moments where I truly wish there was a "mixed" recommendation on steam. Anyway the game itself is fine. The first few hours are actually very entertaining, but after a while it's just the same stuff over and over again. It gets very repetitive, especially when the game is 90% combat. After a while it feels like a chore to play. I understand what they were going for, the game takes place in a tower so of course all the environments will look/feel the same, but I dont think…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It was a pretty quick play on easy story mode, but I could see how one could sink many hours into this fairly expansive linear RPG. (Picked it up and beat it in about 16 hours). I considered trying it on a harder difficulty, but the will just wasn't there. Pros: * The tactical combat is pretty fun. Picking a party that complements each other from the available options was a fun puzzle. The mostly autopilot combats once I had a good team were enjoyable for me. * Itemizing characters was pretty…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I think I glanced at this game once or twice, as it is a kind of game I like, but nothing about it "grabbed" me. Years later some article pops up in the news feed "Amazingly good RPG for $2 on sale." so I finally tried it out. I'm staggered how good this game is. An interesting story and world to discover, characters who are a bit archetypical but still interesting, and mechanics... man, the mechanics! So many game devs could do themselves well studying how this game works, being challenging…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Has probably, by far, the best combat i've ever seen in any RPG, ever. Must-play for every Gamer out there! - 10/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game play is boring and not well balanced. The writing and story are awful. I feel stupid for having played it so long.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's really meh. The first 6-8 hours are pretty reasonable, but then combat becomes incredibly tedious and repetitive, and the story isn't good enough to warrant the length of the game (estimated 35+ hours, I certainly won't see the end of it). It's fine if you're willing to devote a handful of hours on something that you've gotten on sale, but at any price point above like $5, it's not really worth it, and I'm a longtime fan of isometric RPGs Edit: I finished it so you don't have to. The…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Oh boy, where do I even begin? Everything from the interface to the combat and the overall gameplay loop is, at best, passable for a mobile or tablet auto-battler. There’s no way this can honestly be called a cRPG. Visually, the game leans heavily into an “asset flip” aesthetic, which is forgivable for an indie studio. That said, it actually succeeds at conveying the atmosphere of a mysterious, ancient ruined dungeon. The developers market this as a dungeon-crawler RPG with tactical combat, but…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I found this game to be very repetitive and boring. There is a lot of reading involved and the story loses its interesting mystery soon enough. The battle system is extremely boring and repetitive, you essentially do the same thing over and over and fight the same horder with different skins over and over. I think the devs knew this so they put a fast forward option there to try and mitigate the boring battles. The rest of the game is simply walking around, finding gold and items, uncoveirng…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Legitimately one of the best stories I've ever seen in a game. It's absolutely a must play if you are into cRPGs. Forget any criticisms from others about gameplay style or whatnot. This game is about the story and my word it is fantastic. Whether you choose slow motion or pause mode, it's great. I had no issues with gameplay, no bugs, etc... But get it for the story. It's incredible.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really underrated CRPG with a surprisingly addictive real-time-with-pause combat system. The class customization gets wild later on, and positioning actually matters instead of just stat-checking enemies. Story starts a bit slow, but the worldbuilding and dungeon atmosphere kept me hooked. If you miss old-school party RPGs but want smoother combat flow, this one's worth a shot.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Terrible itemization, awful balance. Design decisions that make no sense. Don't bother.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Played just about, if not, everything that could be played in this game. Love. Memorable and enjoyable. One of my favourite games.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's an OK game, I got it for 1 (one) dollar, it is entertaining. It's kinda of an ARPG but you choose your team, four, and they got different abilities and positions, think DOTA-like. You got your tanks, supports, zoo, dps. You control four heroes and every hero has four abilities that you can cast. The thing is you are supposed to do tactics kinda gameplay with real time gameplay, but it doesn't work, it's just better to A-click and focus on priority targets. Some things I don't like about…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game is fun in some ways. but all of them are overshadowed by the game being a repetitive mess. The whole combat and exploring sections are separate in such awkward way, it feels more like a mobile game then a CRPG.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →First impression after playing 30 minutes: This has both a very nice art style and story animations. As the story is told there are still-images that transition using flame-like animation "masks" that expose the next frame in waves. I also like the use of light and dark to expose the landscape such that I can't just click way ahead to get to a destination - I have to look at the closer surroundings, which to a small degree adds immersion on a top-down RPG (and normally these aren't my thing -…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is not a bad game. It's not great, but not terrible either. The gameplay feels like a single player MOBA where you control 4 heroes with 4 abilities each. You can slow down time and issue orders. The mechanics are simple and they work. The story is very fantasy/sci-fi. It's cute but feels like reading self-published fan-fiction. I played it because I was a bit bored and was trying out older games from my lengthy backlog. Probably won't finish it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →its like reading a book that isn't good while playing a walking simulator that doesn't go anywhere. I played for an hour and literally nothing happened.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I spend all my yang in the full moon sword +9, now im poor as a chicken.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Wow...I mean...wow. Okay lets go in order, the gameplay is basic but has its charms (though I disliked the battles when you have to defend the mana nodes but at least they were few of them). The characters...memorable but sometimes they felt a bit dull though most of the time they felt real and with personalities. The narrative...its either a hit or miss, without spoilers its a roller coaster of emotion to be honest. What kept me going was the lore, the notes and diaries you can find on each…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →super fun RPG. The horned elf already does't like me, lol, he's already sabotaging my party
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I played almost 40 hours and the game is really fun... until it's not. The gameplay is REALLY good but, about... 20 hours in? You're SO op that enemies fall like flies. But when you change to a higher difficulty, suddenly you're the one being one shoted. So I kept playing in normal. The combat also becomes easier with time: you get 3 ranged characters which, by far, are the most powerful because they're long-ranged. It takes way too long to attack with the physical characters, so ranged…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I really enjoy the story, setting and build up. The graphics are decent and the pick ups/challenges are not too frequent enough to be exciting. I'd love to play more. I find the battles repetitive and boring and just makes me stop playing. You just basically do the same thing each time and the enemies come in 'waves' but you can see their % at the top of the screen, so you know when to use your last mana etc. There is very little jeopardy. A real shame as I do genuinely like the setting…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →UPD: Changing to not recommend after the lazy ending. Quite enjoyable game, with a lot of story, a lot of conversations between characters. Each level of the tower is different, enough to add the element of exploration. I can't really say anything exceptional about this game, so my "recommend" is nowhere on the same level as some other games, but even with some issues I had with the game, they were not enough to go with "not recommend". It's ok, I've been enjoying it. I'll probably forget i…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tower of Time really hooked me early on with its quite unique take on the combat -- real time battles that focus on positioning, line of sight and aggro management. It's a style of combat I'd love to see more games build on. It kept me hooked for about the first half of the game, but honestly the back half was a slog. I started out aiming or 100% on every floor, but by about floor four or five the traipsing about and the samey battles lost me, and I started just mainlining toward the end…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I strongly recommended this game. It took a genre of which I'm not the most fond (real time with pause combat systems) and made me enjoy it to an extreme. This is an indie game with its requisite jank, but it has a very real amount of charm. In short, I recommend it as a 9/10 for min/maxers who also love a good story. Below is my full breakdown, including thoughts on the story, combat, buildcrafting and progression, and atmosphere and level design. Everything really came together to make a…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tower of Time feels like a refreshed take on the classic Dungeon Siege formula. If you loved that game, you'll probably enjoy this. Plenty of party skill and equipment management to set your characters up for success on battle maps where you control abilities and positioning and your party handle the rest. There is a story and over-world exploration elements that are interesting, but not groundbreaking. Both elements do their job of ferrying you from battle to battle, but are not a defining…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Truly enjoyable for about the first 75% of the game, then it drags on a bit too long. Inventory becomes cumbersome and hard to manage. I never even crafted one item as the game gives you a bounty of equipment to sort through. I picked a team of four (one tank and three dps) and never diverted unless the game forced me to do so. I leveled up everyone and made sure every character had some good gear and skills but in the end, my core four where enough to finish the game without any issue. For…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game holds up very well even in 2025. The build mechanics are quite deep and the story is interesting and well-told. It is a good mix of exploration, combat, and lore drops. I like that there is not really any grinding and each combat encounter feels hand-crafted.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I wasn't a big fun of combat style and first two levels were quite slow and long. But after that i was super invested im story and gameplay. 8/10 Oh, and on sale price literally cheaper then cup of coffee
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →quite a fun game, highly recommend to pick up if you enjoy using a party for combat. the combat itself is both well versed and at the same time unique. i didn't have any issues apart from some audio stuttering as the game shifted out of combat but otherwise a fantastic story that made me WANT to play more to get more details and satisfy the completionist in me since there is little chance of missing content or gear scattered around thanks to the in game visuals, UI and the Wikis that exist…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game could be "good" if it was half as short. maybe the story is decent, but i couldn't care less, as presentation of it is very lacking. i'd also prefer pure "fantasy" instead of "science fantasy", but that's not really a detractor. while gameplay (combat and supporting systems) is mostly solid, considering the game's length it inevitably becomes a chore. i would also not recommend playing it on harder difficulties, as it becomes even more of a slog
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tower of Time is a very different cRPG with an interesting story, a few twists and turns, and a lot of combat. It is first and foremost a dungeon crawler so if you don't care to kill your way through a game, don't bother! But, if you don't mind a little hack-n-slash with an intriguing plot, give this one a try. Along your journey you will explore ten floors of a mysterious, inverted tower, descending towards your goal. There are character choices to be made along the way and a lot of…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Well done game. Great combat. Love that it isn't twitchy
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Good game at a good price
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →how did this game fly so far under the radar? yeah, okay, it has some difficulty balance issues, but i'd rather play a game that's too easy but has an interesting plot vs a game that's too hard but "the fun is in overcoming the challenges, oh also, the story is all flavor text". i'm only a third of the way through the game and i still feel incredibly confident in this thumbs up review. if you like RPGs of any sort, you'll find something to like here.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's been a while since I've played it but decided I should write a review. The gameplay is great. I enjoy games where that really pushes your build and tactics to the limit (it may have changed in future updates). All characters have a good skill-based build and an attack-based build. I may be a little biased here, but I am a huge fan of on-hit and pumping as much damage on hit as possible, while many other games of similar genre generally favor casting and using skills instead (it's like…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Meh. I'm not very far into it, but so far it's fairly mid. The music is generic and repetitive. The story (so far) is kind of interesting, but the actual writing isn't great. The graphics are fine. Googling the studio, they're based in Poland, which is generally fine, but the English localization is not good. The tutorials are just popup windows with paragraphs of text that are frequently in somewhat broken English. Annoying, but not that big of a deal. The actual dialogue doesn't seem to have…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tower of Time is a deeply ambitious role-playing game developed and published by Event Horizon, combining elements of tactical combat, dungeon crawling, and narrative-driven exploration into a unified and richly detailed experience. Set in a world devastated by a mysterious cataclysm, it begins with a lone wanderer discovering a massive, ancient tower standing as the last remnant of a lost age. Within it lies the promise of answers and power, but also the remnants of civilizations that have…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tower of Time is a genuinely solid RPG with some wicked strategic combat and a really engaging story; it's definitely worth checking out if you're into that kind of thing.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It's surprising this game hasn't gone mainstream in 2018.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →7/10. Please be patient with this game and some might not like the combat mechanics. If you're looking for something different this worth the try! Combat is somewhere between turn-based and RTS. Almost like Songs of Silence but without the cards. The lore is pretty cool and definitely worth reading. Devs have put in effort with itemization and skill customization. Some areas can be pretty draggy but there are combats and storyline where this game really shines. GO PLAY!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An absolute steal at 93% off. I got a foil drop too, so actually ended up getting paid a few pence for buying this.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tower of Time is a fantastic blend of tactical real-time combat and cRPG storytelling. Its RTwP system strikes a good balance between strategy and action. The level of tactical decision making is very satisfactory for me - gives a lot of decision making power but it is not too complex. It offers a sufficient degree of theory crafting before combat, which is then further strengthened by combat positioning, spell combos and terrain usage. Beyond combat, the game delivers a compelling narrative…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Convoluted tactical battles So, you are free to run around but positioning matters and there are skills to use and a pause menu. Have you played Total War games? Now imagine you only have a few units and the worst UI possible in a Total War battle. That's basically it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Tower of Time Review: A Hidden Gem That Will Break Your Heart TL;DR Tower of Time is a masterclass in storytelling and tactical RPG design. With a narrative so emotionally resonant it can bring a grown adult to tears, a lingering sense of mystery that keeps you hooked until the final credits, and a deeply satisfying progression loop, it is an absolute must-play for fans of tactical combat and rich, mature storytelling.
