gameplay
6 mentions Positive Neutral NegativeThe gameplay is generally enjoyable, especially for fans of the first Inscryption, though it lacks clear quality-of-life features and guidance, requiring players to discover mechanics on their own. Once understood, the game can be completed without much difficulty. There is potential for the gameplay style to be adapted to other historical or thematic settings.
“I would absolutely love to see more historically-set games with the same style and mechanic; I think it would lend well to a pirate theme, a medieval setting, maybe even a stone age survival game. Definitely going to keep an eye out for more games from this developer.”
“However, once I felt like I understood the basic mechanics, I beat the game without trouble.”
“I'm sure there is some 'ridding yourself of oxen' mechanic that I did not understand, but regardless, since the game offers you so much tech, you should have to make strategic use of it to actually beat the game.”
“It's an alright game if you liked the first part of Inscryption, but it either lacks or doesn't alert the player to some quality of life features that can make the gameplay annoying.”
“I'm sure there is some 'ridding yourself of oxen' mechanic that I did not understand, but regardless I think since the game offers you so much tech, you should have to make strategic use of it to actually beat the game.”
