Breath of Death VII

I am a HUGE sucker for this dev team ever since I played Cosmic Star Heroine. So of course I had to play this old double pack of theirs, and yeah, Breath of Death VII absolutely rules! You might expect a really by the numbers JRPG with basic combat. But if you know Zeboyd, you know it's never that simple! +Genuinely fun world concept where everything is undead, perfect Halloween RPG! +Combat has a fun and unique combo system that allows you to deal MASSIVE damage when used right +Random encounter limit means you can grind through random encounters and then explore a dungeon freely for those of you who don't like random encounters +Even Level Ups are unique, with each level up giving you the choice of 2 upgrades +This and Cthulhu Saves the World (another great RPG) are regularly under $1 -I wish there was a way to get upgrades you missed from previous level ups -Similarly, after a certain point, most upgrades just become plain old stat boosts. Which makes sense but still -Some of the references are really dated. But it's part of the charm

если честно, шлак, брать только ради карт

It's a brief RPG parody that feels very influenced by the early ages of JRPGs, where battles feel more like a puzzle rather than hehe numbers go high, and you can die easily if you're not paying attention. Be sure to remember that you can save at anytime. Music was actually kinda good.

Breath of Death VII is a nice short game with a funny story but tends to get boring fast due to the same mechanics being repeated over and over. It can be fun to give it a try over the weekend as it is fairly short, however I would have enjoyed it more if they would have fleshed out the rpg mechanics a bit more and added a bit more detail. The soundtrack and story are OK with small references and Easter eggs here and there and I actually enjoyed the ending. I played the initial version not the Reanimated version, it has its charm and holds up although it has no achievements to unlock on steam; Worth a pick-up if its on discount or priced at $2.00 or if like myself you buy it in a bundle together with other games such as Cthulhu Saves the world. PS: A mobile version would be held in higher regards if ever developed.

A worthy predecesor, though an inferior version of, Cthulhu Saves the World, Breath of Death VII was a fun, surprisingly challenging but quite short experience. The writing was fun, but very minimal, and I can see the roots that were laid down here to let Cthulhu survive and thrive. In all honesty, while it was decent fun and is very cheap, there's not much reason to play this over Cthulhu which is just this game but a lot better on every front. That isn't to say that this is a bad game, far from it, but it lacks the same... heart that it's sequel does. Solid, short, challenging and decently engaging, BoD VII is a good game, easily and quickly finished. Good to pass the time with, at least once.

Short. The MSQ will take you around 3hrs to complete. I took my time and put an extra hour into it. It's okay for the price, just don't expect much.

Game speed is way too high and figuring out how to fix that is too much effort for what this game is.
