https://apps.apple.com/us/app/heros-adventure/id6711347049 Hey all! I’m a retired and partially disabled man who spends about 10 hours every day on my iPad taking part in video games. This has been my go-to sub for years. Throughout that point, I’ve performed all of the video games urged right here that relate to my broad pursuits (RPG, ARPG, Simulation, Card, Board, Roguelike/lite, 4X, and so on.). I’m at all times looking out for one thing obscure that I could have missed. Not too long ago, Hero’s Journey got here up -it is a brand new launch on iOS- and I made a decision to provide it a attempt. I had actually loved Sands of Salazar, I believe by the identical dev. I’m now 50+ hours into Hero’s Journey. I’ve but to finish one of many 10 endings, however I’m so thrilled with this recreation, I need to unfold the phrase. I’ve by no means reviewed a recreation earlier than, however this one has impressed me. First off, I typically hate pixel graphics. I’m outdated. I witnessed the evolution from Atari to Nintendo to Xbox and at the moment have a PS5. I don’t discover pixel graphics “charming” the best way my 16-year-old child does. That stated, the pixel graphics of Hero’s Journey are extraordinarily detailed. It seems stunning and intentional, not retro. IYKYK. Subsequent, this recreation is so massive! 50+ hours in and I simply found a complete new space! I’ve by no means performed a recreation with so many factions, sects, villages, temples, forests, this’s and that’s. Whereas the sport has repeatable aspect quests, there are such a lot of new quests and aspect quests that nothing has felt grindy (and I normally like grindy). Certain, you may grind, however there’s simply a lot unique content material that it isn’t essential (this can be a brand-new expertise for me at 48-years-old). The gameplay is unbelievable! Flip-based fight harking back to FF Techniques. Exploration, minor puzzles and checks, ranges, talent ranges, attribute ranges, a lot selection in what you may study and how one can battle! Companions are plentiful and have distinctive abilities! You get a house base to develop! You may recruit pets that battle alongside you! The story is compelling, fascinating, and crammed with intrigue! Your selections have penalties. Your fame-level determines how NPC’s relate to you. This seems like an actual world! The crafting/gathering features of the sport are extraordinarily well-done -the greatest I’ve ever seen in a single-person recreation! Apparently, this recreation is kinda roguelike in that you simply get factors based mostly on accomplishments to assign in subsequent runs. Once more, I’m not an expert reviewer. I’m just a few man. However this recreation is wonderful and well-worth the $5 or so admission! I hope extra individuals play this and add to the sport’s wiki! Has anybody else skilled this? What do you assume? submitted by /u/MrProdigal |
