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. Just lately, Hero’s Journey got here up -it is a brand new launch on iOS- and I made a decision to offer it a strive. I had actually loved Sands of Salazar, I feel 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 sport, I wish to unfold the phrase. I’ve by no means reviewed a sport 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 I’m outdated.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 present have a PS5. I don’t discover pixel graphics “charming” the best way my 16-year-old child does. That mentioned, the pixel graphics of Hero’s Journey are extraordinarily detailed. It appears stunning and intentional, not retro. IYKYK. Subsequent, this sport is so massive! 50+ hours in and I simply found a whole new space! I’ve by no means performed a sport 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). Positive, you’ll be able to grind, however there may be simply a lot unique content material that it isn’t needed (this can be a brand-new expertise for me at 48-years-old). The gameplay is incredible! Flip-based fight paying homage to FF Ways. Exploration, minor puzzles and exams, ranges, ability ranges, attribute ranges, a lot selection in what you’ll be able to 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, attention-grabbing, and stuffed 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 elements of the sport are extraordinarily well-done -the finest I’ve ever seen in a single-person sport! Apparently, this sport is kinda roguelike in that you simply get factors based mostly on accomplishments to assign in subsequent runs. Once more, I’m not knowledgeable reviewer. I’m just a few man. However this sport is superb and well-worth the $5 or so admission! I hope extra folks play this and add to the sport’s wiki! Has anybody else skilled this? What do you assume? submitted by /u/MrProdigal |
