  • story
    80 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's story is largely criticized for its lack of depth and variety, with most quests revolving around repetitive tasks like killing a set number of enemies. Players express disappointment over the absence of engaging narratives or dynamic storylines, noting that the quest system feels outdated and simplistic. Overall, the game currently offers a basic quest structure that fails to provide a compelling story experience.

    • “The quests currently available are fairly basic and have an old-school feel, but the crafting system seems to be extremely detailed and is intended to be the core of the game.”
    • “In a time of trashy games, the dev clearly came to deliver us from evil and bring out this tear-jerker of a game; the story itself is indistinguishable in quality to Telltale games.”
    • “But all round good quest line and opaque combative strategy!”
    • “There's no story, just a line of kill 20 of x quests.”
    • “Doing the main story quest (which are the only quests in the game at the moment) will take you around 6-7 hours.”
    • “There's no story or story quests, it's all just grinding out grind quests, no thanks.”
  • gameplay
    64 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay has received mixed reviews, with many players noting its repetitive nature and lack of depth, particularly in combat mechanics and enemy variety. While some appreciate the dodging mechanic and simple quests, others criticize the overall experience as clunky and unsatisfying, especially for new players. Despite its potential, the game currently offers limited content and feels unfinished, leading to a frustrating player experience.

    • “One thing in particular that I have enjoyed is that the dodging mechanic allows you to avoid pretty much all enemy damage with good timing while feeling appropriately punishing if you miss a dodge while fighting enemies higher level than you.”
    • “It's good for anyone who wants a really simple fantasy game with a solid gameplay loop.”
    • “The gameplay is solid and extremely enjoyable, especially with friends.”
    • “This review is intended to be informational, but since Steam forces a rating, I'm choosing 'not recommended' on the basis of low player base, repetitive gameplay, and a frustrating player experience.”
    • “The core gameplay (killing monsters) for a newly started player is very unsatisfying.”
    • “You just run around slashing at NPCs; there's no combo mechanics to the game, making combat very stale and slow.”
  • graphics
    52 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics of the game receive mixed reviews, with many players criticizing them as outdated and poorly optimized, often comparing them unfavorably to games from over 20 years ago. While some appreciate the stylized art and decent character animations, others report significant performance issues, including low frame rates and graphical glitches. Overall, the visuals are seen as a weak point, with suggestions for improvement focusing on enhancing the user interface and exploring more creative aesthetics.

    • “The graphics are decent, and the character animations are pleasing to the eye.”
    • “+stylized graphics are a great starting point, not pushing the realism like other games, and making your own look, which has a better longevity.”
    • “The game is pretty nice, graphics are pretty and the mechanics are simple enough to get into :)”
    • “Graphics are terrible, it looks worse than some 20+ years old games I own.”
    • “Awful optimization: even with minimum graphic settings the fps still < 10.”
    • “Very simplistic game... very blocky, very subpar graphics. Some story it seems I guess quest wise, I didn't read it, I was too busy being bored.”
  • grinding
    36 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The grinding aspect of the game is heavily emphasized, with many players noting that it can become tedious, especially after level 30, as the focus shifts from leveling to acquiring better gear. While some enjoy the straightforward nature of grinding and find it a relaxing experience, others criticize the lack of story content and the mindless nature of combat, leading to a perception of excessive grind. Overall, the game is seen as a grind-heavy MMORPG that may appeal to fans of the genre but could deter those seeking a more narrative-driven experience.

    • “If you saw this on the worst MMO series and decided to try it, be warned that it has become extremely different and grindy.”
    • “There's no story or story quests, it's all just grinding out grind quests, no thanks.”
    • “And grinding takes too long for how mindless the combat is.”
  • music
    36 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game has received widespread acclaim, with many players praising its catchy and nostalgic qualities, particularly the character selection screen and the overall soundtrack. While some found the repetitive nature of certain tracks to become annoying over time, the majority highlighted the emotional impact and well-polished composition of the music, making it a standout feature of the game. Overall, the soundtrack is considered a significant strength, enhancing the gaming experience.

    • “The soundtrack is also phenomenal; never before have I felt such emotions from a soundtrack alone.”
    • “The medieval music is also very, very good; the game kind of makes me feel nostalgic, weirdly enough.”
    • “The character models and animations have a fun jaunty style, and the music is legendary.”
    • “Played the game for a bit, the music got annoying by like wave 10 with no way in-game to turn it off.”
    • “The music got annoying by wave 10 with no way in-game to turn it off.”
    • “Try the game out if you want some hours to kill, and do crank up some music in the background.”
  • humor
    16 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The humor in the game is widely praised, with players highlighting its ability to generate laughter through absurdity and quirky moments, especially during multiplayer sessions. The game's title screen, featuring identical dancing character models, is noted for its mix of hilarity and creepiness, contributing to the overall comedic experience. Many users express that the humor enhances their enjoyment, making it a memorable and entertaining experience.

    • “Funny game to play, it's a lot more fun when playing with friends.”
    • “Small but funny game.”
  • optimization
    10 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's optimization is widely criticized, with many players reporting extremely low frame rates (below 10 fps) even on minimum settings, suggesting significant performance issues. While a few users noted that it runs smoothly enough for casual play, the overall consensus indicates that the game is poorly optimized, leading to a frustrating experience for those with average hardware.

    • “Awful optimization: even with minimum graphic settings the fps still < 10.”
    • “Don't know if my PC is weak or it's not properly optimized, but I have an i5 and 8 GB of RAM, and the game runs... pretty damn bad, not reaching 10 fps with everything on low and the lowest resolution.”
    • “Performance is pretty bad (for me at least), but it's fun to just turn your mind off and play.”
  • monetization
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game has transitioned to a free-to-play model, introducing optional microtransactions for mounts, which can be purchased using either in-game gold or a new currency called owl tribe coins.

    • “First off, the game is now free to play with optional microtransactions for mounts. You can buy them with either gold earned in-game or Owl Tribe Coins, the new microtransaction currency.”
    • “The introduction of optional microtransactions for mounts adds a new layer of customization without forcing players to spend money, as you can still earn in-game currency.”
    • “I appreciate that the game is free to play and offers a balanced approach to monetization, allowing players to choose how they want to engage with the new content.”
    • “The game is now free to play with optional microtransactions for mounts. You can buy them with either gold earned in-game or Owl Tribe Coins, the new microtransaction currency.”
    • “The introduction of microtransactions for mounts feels like a cash grab, especially since they can also be purchased with in-game currency.”
    • “While the game is free to play, the reliance on microtransactions for mounts detracts from the overall experience.”
  • replayability
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Players highlight the game's strong replayability, noting that it offers hours of enjoyable gameplay and a sense of progression that encourages multiple playthroughs.
