What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
As long as you’re not expecting something like Dragon Age, Baldur’s Gate 3, Pillars of Eternity (perhaps if you want to rest from that sort of titles, and be surprised by something totally different, light-hearted and fun) this game provides good solid value for money, and possibly thousands of hours of gameplay.
Give it a try if you like this type of game and you’re Ok with the graphics (papercraft, board-game art style) and humor (thankfully, the game doesn't take itself too seriously: while tactical combat can be very challenging and deep, the game is generally light-hearted, full of memes, pop-culture references, sometimes steeped in absurd comedy, and often brilliant writing and narrative design).
The combat is really enjoyable, the commentary is fun and full of good humour, the main characters are well designed, and the art style is unique and creative.
Ignoring the creation mechanic though, you have a roster of fun to play characters, each with their own voice acting, a variety of gamemodes from stories, arena, endless, seasonal and the tower.
Out of the box there’s already a few nice in-built campaigns or modules, with different themes and settings (medieval high-fantasy, Sci-Fi, outer space colonies, etc.), dozens of characters, amazing voice-acting and literally thousands of items and skills, but there’s much more to the game, like the powerful editor / campaign creator / game maker.
This system is just screaming out for some form of a co-op or Dungeon-Master esce game mode.
