  • Engaging and addictive gameplay loop combining extraction mechanics with auto-battling RPG combat.
  • Beautiful, unique hand-drawn art style and excellent soundtrack that create a charming, immersive atmosphere.
  • Polished presentation and smooth combat with meaningful party building and skill synergy, impressive especially for a solo developer.
  • Repetitive combat with limited enemy variety and shallow gear crafting, leading to a somewhat linear and easy experience.
  • Confusing and sometimes tedious map design with poor quality-of-life features in UI and inventory management.
  • Underwhelming story presentation with grammar issues in quests, weak strategic depth, and insufficient endgame content and replayability.

    The gameplay offers an engaging and addictive blend of extraction mechanics and auto-battler RPG combat, rewarding strategic party building and risk management with tense moments. While smooth and enjoyable, especially for casual play, it suffers from repetitive combat, limited enemy variety, and underdeveloped mechanics that hold it back from reaching its full potential. Fans of strategic progression may appreciate its polished loop, but it lacks depth and variety for those seeking more complexity or innovation.

    • “Skills & Raids delivers an engaging blend of extraction mechanics and auto-battling RPG combat, rewarding thoughtful party building and risk management with tense, satisfying expeditions.”
    • “The gameplay feels incredibly smooth, and the combat keeps you completely hooked.”
    • “It's not mechanically intensive in that way, but there is some degree of customization that can make combat feel more intense and require attention, especially as the enemies themselves garner more mechanics in each area, having limited healing and protection because of cooldowns. There were some genuinely tense moments where I almost wiped due to overestimating how I built my squad.”
    • “Mechanics are questionable; focus points are not worth it. Poison only stacks to 8 for some reason, frostbite is useless, charge is decent, and bleed and corruption feel strong mainly because they appear later in the game.”
    • “It suffers from tired, repetitive mechanics typical of mobile games: one area focuses on poison damage, so you mitigate that with poison gear, then you move to a frost-focused area, making everything frosty and repetitive.”
    • “The game could benefit from more difficulty levels and progression that emphasize extraction and loot, along with more strategic decisions, gameplay actions, and increased RNG for better replayability.”

  • story

    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    27% positive mentions, 46% neutral mentions, 27% negative mentions

    The story is considered fair but largely repetitive and lacks depth, with quests feeling streamlined and sometimes poorly written. However, the narrative's unique theme around memory and the quest giver’s personality provide some atmosphere and flavor to the otherwise straightforward progression. Overall, while not a standout aspect, the story supports the addictive gameplay loop without detracting significantly.

    • “The game is flavored around it, you don't use MP but "memory" to cast skills, you don't drop items, you "forget" them, and the quest giver provides a good amount of detail that helps build an overarching dreary atmosphere of a world doomed to always cling to the idea of memory.”
    • “I believe this game has potential; the art is rather charming and the ability to combine various skills is neat. It appears to be well written, and the character who gives you the quests has a clear personality and isn’t just a blank state.”
    • “The game does feature a narrative by the quest giver.”
    • “The quests appear to be generated by AI and contain numerous grammar and spelling errors, indicating they likely were not reviewed before being posted.”
    • “The story is fairly boring and linear, with players being funneled through quests without any meaningful deviation.”
    • “While the game features a narrative delivered by quest givers, the overall story is underwhelming and prevents the game from realizing its full potential.”

  • music

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    80% positive mentions, 20% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The music received generally positive feedback, praised for its excellent quality and ability to create a nice mood, complementing the game's beautiful visuals and charming characters. However, some users found the soundtrack to be only fair.

    • “Beautiful visuals, great soundtrack, charming characters and innovative mix of genres!”
    • “Music: excellent (nice mood)”
    • “It does look quite pretty and has some good music though.”

  • graphics

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    80% positive mentions, 20% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The graphics received mixed feedback, with some users praising the unique hand-drawn art style and beautiful visuals, while others found them unenjoyable and lacking compared to other games. Overall, the visuals are generally seen as charming and well-crafted.

    • “Graphics: excellent (unique hand drawn art style)”
    • “Beautiful visuals, great soundtrack, charming characters and innovative mix of genres!”
    • “Graphics: good”

  • grinding

    5 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    0% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Grinding in the game is often described as tedious and repetitive, involving extensive farming for materials and gold across multiple zones. Frequent enemy encounters during travel and random drops contribute to the frustration, making progression feel slow and tiresome.

    • “Given how close it was, I almost assuredly could have beaten it with a few more upgrades, but the random nature of finding particular materials and especially skills got tiresome after a while and I was sick of grinding.”
    • “Having to cross the whole map and redo all enemies can be quite tedious.”
    • “Most of that is farming areas for materials and gold to craft better gear to survive fights in four zones.”

  • replayability

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    33% positive mentions, -33% neutral mentions, 100% negative mentions

    Replayability is considered fair but could be improved by adding more difficulty levels, deeper progression systems focused on extraction and loot, increased strategic choices, and greater RNG elements to enhance varied gameplay experiences.

    • “Could include more difficulties and progression leaning harder into the extraction and loot, more strategic decisions and gameplay actions, more RNG replayability.”
    • “Replayability: fair (for an autobattler, strategy, RPG, extraction game, it could use more replayability elements).”
    • “Critique so far: could include more difficulties and progression leaning harder into the extraction and loot, more strategic decisions and gameplay actions, more RNG replayability.”
    • “Replayability: fair (for an autobattler, strategy, RPG, extraction game, it could use more replayability elements).”

  • atmosphere

    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users appreciate the game's unique atmosphere, which is rich and immersive, centered around the theme of memory rather than typical mechanics like mana or item drops. The detailed quest narratives effectively enhance the dreary, doomed feeling of the world, creating a compelling and cohesive mood.

    • “The game is flavored around it: you don't use MP, but 'memory' to cast skills; you don't drop items, you 'forget' them, and the quest giver provides a good amount of detail that helps build that overarching dreary atmosphere of a world that seems doomed to always cling onto the idea of memory.”
    • “I found the overall world and atmosphere quite nice.”

  • humor

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Users find the humor in the game, particularly in the tutorial, to be ineffective and unfunny, often feeling confusing rather than entertaining.

    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The game is praised for its excellent optimization, delivering smooth and stable performance across devices.
