Not quite sure what I to think about this game... You can get an idea by reading other peoples review.
But I will tell what nobody said in any review (at least in the ones I saw)
[b] The game has pretty much 0 story, you are an knight tossed in multiple arenas[/b].
You will be fighting waves of 15 minions repeatdly, and after some point you get to fight an boss.
[b]Around each 4-5 waves, your progress will freaze in that wave[/b] and you can keep repeting that wave w/o progress so you can farm or decide if you are ready for the boss.
[b]Farm what you say?[/b] Well You are a knight, so you have a meele weapon and a bowgun, which you can pretty much kill everything just with this, an armor and a skill. Those ones are upgraded with coins, which you get by killing the mobs.
[b]Don't waste your time farming and go easy on upgrades/save cash[/b]. You can farm some coin, ok... but you might drop your own gun in the next wave and will do more dmg than yours. Lets say you get a rusty sword, upgrade till lvl 5, and next one will drop the same sword, with the same level, but with no explanation, it will be moore powerfull, I would recommend upgrading your gear in case you start to die.
[b]Dont save your coin[/b], and tbh, I almost refunded the game because of the way it works:
After playing 31 waves, you get an option to fight the final boss. And now is the [b]catch[/b]
After beating the final boss, in a very silly fight, you get tossed back to wave 1. Would fit a ""maybe-roguelike"", because it gives you a few "tokens-marks-currency" that you can use to upgrade your character.
Sounds charming, right? Nope... They take alway all your hard earned money, your equipments and skils.
You keep nothing! I'd reckon it would be normal to reset everything and let us keep the gear, or get the drops and let us keep they coins.
[b]NO NO NO[/b] If you saved mony so you could get another good run and stuff and lvll up better drops, you basicly wasted your time. Also, there is multiple game modes, tha are tied with your character progress, in another words, you wouldnt be able to pla on the other modes till you lvl up all over again.
I mean, the only way you get new skills and stuff is by beating bosses, I would understand if they take part of your stuff, it would look pretty much like ANY roguelike in an not procedual arena. In my mind, I keep wondering if you beat waves, get sh1tty RNG drops... And move to next one and you cant beat it next... what you would do? Keep death-farming till you lvlup your armor enogh? Sounds really lame and terrible.
Game looks good, with bugs: my controller stoped responding several times and had to close the game (an original xbox controller), gameplay looks okay and runs smootly on pretty much anything, it has almost everything that I would liike to spend a few hours in this game. But not having an ing store where ou can spend your hard earned-farmed coin, and the reset was really poorly designed; sounds good but poorly managed with drops and resources.
If you want it, get in a sale, will be less than a couple bucks.
