Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
24 of 45 sampled reviews raised it
A great game to try if you've bounced off the more grind-focused games out there, since there's no option to grind for stronger characters in this one, just play different paths through the story and new sidekicks/villains.
Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
19 of 45 sampled reviews raised it
The combat is very position and environmental focused, throwing enemies off cliffs and into each other is generally much more favourable than straight damage, although on occasion more standard tactics like, favoured damage types, chokepoints and AoE bombing do the job better.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
8 of 45 sampled reviews raised it
Hellenica is an excellent new indie RPG with a creative game world, interesting game mechanics, tactical turn-based battles, and pixel graphics that have personality and charm.
