Beggar's Road

I paid $6, finished the game in an hour. Not much to do but walk to the same places until events trigger and time passes but for me worth the cost for an hour.

4 hours of play time; Its a simple game, but if you like the ad video from the store page you will probably enjoy the game. With that said- I probably wont play more than I have because its a little repetitive. *If they add more towns or more experiences I think it could be a great game. Worth the $10 I spent on it.

For the price its really not a bad game, it was enjoyable. I hope dev add more content to it.

This game scrapes by the skin of its' teeth for me. I am a bit dubious that the game was not made with more AI than what's it's saying it was. However, as I cannot prove it everything from here on out is with the assumption that everything that was made was largely done by human hands. So the game is a very short tale about going out into the world as a beggar and working your way up while settling certain disputes and then eventually successfully completing your story with a faction going from there. If you play this game like a roguelike I think you get way more value out of it than if you save scum it. It makes all of the choice more impactful, and battles more tense. The problem is that these game needed more. More of pretty much everything. More story, more choices, more combat. However, as I picked it up for $5 I am not going to complain too much. However, if you haven't played games like Roadwarden before go spend your money on that instead. Final Grade C-

Fun and simple

I enjoyed this game immensely... Except that it's far too short and there are quite a few bugs in how the quests are handled. Most of them don't appear to be game breaking, though there are reports of quest-lines getting bugged out. Regardless, it was a fun experience with my only complaint being that I want more expansive maps, longer quest lines, and overall just more of the world to explore. It's got good bones, but even on a complete playthrough it feels a bit "Demo" like.

I recently purchased Beggar's Road based off of a YouTube stream I watched and largely enjoyed a play through. The game is fun and has intriguing and sometimes frustrating mechanics (in particular Beggar's Bluff game). All said and done though, for $7.99, its a good buy and a nice entry point. The standard difficulty is very easy though so I'd recommend ramping it up. The overall game took me roughly 5 hours which is pretty quick. I mean I believe I can keep going as it didn't truly "end." It more just said I achieved the highest status. I'd love to say a Beggar's Road 2 at some point or a healthy DLC to expand the base-game because I could see myself playing this more. Its just complicated enough to be fun and the personalities you interact with seem unique and different. No idea how it will feel on a second or third playthrough and if everything meaningfully changes tho. All in all for $7.99 (and price is determining score), I'd give this an 7/10. -1 for being too short, -1 for a very limited map, -1 for not enough of walkthrough -specifically on Beggar's Bluff, and -1 for being very basic. + 3 For the characters (NPCs not your team), +2 for the events, +2 for the impact of your decisions, and + 3 the combat, and +1 for being less than $10.00.
