Champion of the Gods

“Champion of the Gods” was a passable read with many interesting concepts. However, too little time was spent on each part of the story before introducing new concepts, places, and characters. As such, I couldn’t help but feel rushed along as I was reading, and as a result, I never felt particularly close to any of the characters nor did I feel like my love interest and I ever grew close. In short, I don’t regret reading through the game a few times, but had more time been spent fleshing out the characters, the story would have been much improved in my opinion. Especially the love interests would’ve benefited from some more literary affection. (5/10)

Me gusto, la influencia de la cultura de la Antigua Grecia esta muy bien implementada, sobre todo el tema del destino. Y me caí de culo cuando descubrí que este juego tendrá secuela. Un buen título, quizás no mejores de otros que tienen secuela, pero está bien. La única falla que le encuentro es la falta de conectividad con otros personajes, lo cual se evidencia por la falta de una barra de relación con ellos.

The plot was a very interesting action adventure. The stat mechanics were relatively simple. Once you realize you have to make sure to pick a choice that reflects your highest personality traits and stats, it's not too hard to be victorious. Before I got that down I had some stress from failing a battle and wondering what would happen if I lost again, but that was a good thing to keep me invested. The checks for each encounter were minimal. They would have been more satisfying if they were designed to have more stages with outcomes that didn't seem so black and white. Still, I didn't feel railroaded though it's hard to say for sure on one play through (which only took about 3 hours). Maybe because of the fast pace or the short story length, it felt lacking some in immersion. The relationships didn't feel very deep, including the romance. But the setting was described fairly well with appropriate garb, materials, and customs. There were also some thought provoking choices that made me focus more on what I thought about the people around me. What I enjoyed most was the lore. Mythology was my first love and the way the author interpreted the interplay between mortals, the gods, and the fates was genius. I loved exploring that world design through the main character. That's what made this story for me. I give this one a 7/10 recommendation and I'm down for the sequel!

10/10 point for Very good Story line.

Light and easy to read, i definitly recommend it for a first try of the genre. If you like Greek mythology you will not be disappointed
