Oh, how great it would be if this had been thought out a little better. Unfortunately, the concept of mixing multiple genres into one is not enough to make the end result fun. The main reason why Champions of Anteria failed in doing so is probably because, although it offers city building, campaign map strategy, and tactical ARPG gameplay, it does it without adding any spices to make the dish tastier, and thus, worthy of seconds.

Champions of Anteria has some undeniably neat ideas, and I’ll always be more accepting of a game that fails trying something new. The combination of Action RPG and Village Building works well, and the Elements system may be pinched from Divinity: Original Sin but adds a deep strategic slant to both Action and Building and makes both sides far more compelling. Unfortunately while the Building side is simple but fun the Action side is deeply flawed. The controls aren’t precise and sometimes your orders just won’t be received, plus the reliance on health potions makes the whole thing boring. It’s the atrocious AI that stakes the Action side in the heart though, with Special Attacks hitting thin air, allies that refuse to attack unless you directly order them, and pathfinding that will literally have both allies and enemies run around the entire map to get to a point an inch away – and not caring what dangers they’ll inevitably run into. Furthermore bugs and performance issues were extremely troublesome.
