Echoes of Mystralia

I came into this game with no real expectations. I’ve tried a lot of Hades‑style roguelites, and very few manage to grab me with both uniqueness and replayability. This one did — hard. I seriously can’t stop playing. Every run makes me want to try a new spell combo just to see what wild build I can come up with next. The difficulty hits a sweet spot, the spell crafting is deep without being overwhelming, and the visuals are gorgeous. A few things I’d love to see improved: Better visual cues for certain enemy attacks (looking at you, trident guys in areas 3/4). Frame drops when using spell builds with tons of projectiles. The Home Base feels a bit empty — more interactive features would help a lot. A higher post‑game difficulty option. More variety in boss move sets to keep runs feeling fresh. Even with those nitpicks, I’d recommend this game in a heartbeat to anyone who enjoyed Hades. I’m hyped to see where the devs take it next. Totally worth the price.

The Best $20 I've Spent in a Long Time: It is sad seeing people claim this game is only worth half its price. For $20, this is the closest a game has come to giving me the exact same thrills and chills as Hades 2, but with even more freedom. I have put in over 8 hours so far across 8 runs, and every single run has had a totally different outcome. In Hades 2, it is very easy to recreate the exact same build over and over, but the spellcrafting system here offers top-tier creativity and endless possibilities. Art, Audio & Presentation: The presentation is phenomenal. The art style is amazing, the music is beautiful, and the characters are awesome. On top of that, the game has fantastic voice acting; something you do not always see at this price point. How anyone can sit here, play this, and think it is only worth $10 is beyond me; I guarantee those same people leave 5-star reviews on Call of Duty. The Gameplay & Spells: Crafting your own magic is an absolute blast, but since the game is still in Early Access, there is room for the combat loop to evolve. It would be amazing to see a new unique button for an ultimate form, an ultimate move, or a special Cast button for other types of magic (similar to the Omega Cast in Hades 2 where you can trap or slow enemies). Adding something like this would ensure the game does not just feel like you are dodging and pressing the same two buttons. Constructive Feedback for the Devs: While I am totally fine with the difficulty, there are a few balancing tweaks that would make the gameplay much smoother, especially for newcomers: Invincibility Frames: There needs to be some sort of invincibility after getting hit. Right now, you die way too quickly. I was once hit by three enemies at the exact same time and instantly died. Getting staggered and one-shot is too easy right now, even if you are being careful. Visual Clutter: With all the magic going off, it can be very hard to see enemy attacks, which results in taking massive damage from multiple enemies at once. I absolutely love the look of the magic and it's BEAUTIFUL, but sometimes I just cannot see through all of the magic and enemies Enemy Shields: Some normal, non-boss enemies have shields that feel completely unbreakable, even when I am running an insanely heavy, high-damage spell build. Toning down these overpowered regular enemies just a bit would keep the runs feeling fair. Final Verdict: This game has been a phenomenal experience, and they are building something genuinely special here. It has the potential to stand right alongside the giants like Hades, or even be better. Please give this game a shot and support the developers. They are listening, they are updating the game, and I do not want to see another talented development team give up. Keep up the amazing work!

局外成长简直灾难，选局外成长局内体验更是灾难，第一次见到局外成长材料需要在局内专门的房间获得的。后面局外成长高了打好几局也升不了一级

Très bon jeu, surtout pour un Early Access. J’ai trouvé que la DA du jeu était vraiment incroyable, tout comme le lore, le gameplay et tout le reste. Le fait de devoir réfléchir pour créer des sorts et des combos de sorts puissants est juste génial. J’ai actuellement 15 heures de jeu. J’ai malheureusement eu un problème avec ma sauvegarde qui s’est retrouvée corrompue à cause d’un bug du jeu qui faisait énormément augmenter la consommation de RAM, jusqu’à environ 27 Go. Ma sauvegarde a fini par ne plus fonctionner correctement. Mais comme le jeu est tellement agréable à jouer, j’ai rapidement recommencé une nouvelle partie. J’ai pu avancer beaucoup plus vite, car je faisais moins attention au lore que j’avais déjà découvert et que j’avais désormais plus d’expérience sur le jeu. Honnêtement, pour un jeu en Early Access, c’est vraiment excellent et j’ai hâte de voir ce que les développeurs vont ajouter par la suite.

Отличный рогалик с нетривиальной механикой заклинаний, контента немного, но реиграбельность на месте, стоит своих денег и потраченного времени точно. Буду следить за развитием проекта. Рекомендую!

Can't recommend a purchase at this point of the game development for this price point. Game is solid, but it is too short, and no reason to repeat the gameplay loop to unlock all those (incredibly overpriced) meta-progressions when you can beat it without unlocking any of it. Some games the loop is fun enough to do just that, this feels too spammy and erratic to justify the repeated playthrough when the end of run feels so close to the start. Wish i could give it a half thumb or something, cause it IS enjoyable, just can't justify the price.
