About
Once a year, the Paintress wakes and paints upon her monolith. Paints her cursed number. And everyone past that age turns to smoke and fades away. Year by year, that number ticks down and more of us are erased. Tomorrow she’ll wake and paint “33.” And tomorrow we depart on our final mission - Destroy the Paintress, so she can never paint death again.
We are Expedition 33.

amazing game
Шедевр. Лучшее творение геймдева. 33/10
Incredible experience I've been looking for a really good turn based RPG story since last year, this game has become something i wish i played as it was released when it was more in the lime light and people were talking about it, i really wish i'd bought it on release jesus christ. I have been blown away by every aspect of this game from an RPG perspective, the visuals are so uniquely incredible and having one of the best designed worlds i've seen in games in years, the music is such a fun and quality filled mix combining orchestras and brilliant choir work with other genres (love the jazz in Monocos stuff), the gameplay and combat interactivity is amazing, REALLY like what they did to combat to give players a newer experience that immerses them more into the action in a turn based game really love the inovation applied here, the only thing that felt like a ridiculous chore was upping my lumina points. The STORY though ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, i loved the build up and mystery surrounding the game and it's main events, really enjoyed the characters and there developments i just wish without any spoilers, they leaned in more to the characters at the beginning of the game. Every act and it's development played a crucial part and i loved it, really got a sense of understanding of the whole story by the end in a really satisfying way but the writting that would've had to have been employed to do this is insane. One of my new fav RPGs 9/10 - If you like turn based RPGs and you've been looking for something new and feels new, this is a no brainer, tomorrow comes
It's shame. A very beautiful world, a nice way to present the characters, a story not told before. Really great. But the battle system sucks. Every fifth enemy is a boss and you need to dodge 20 times without fail to survive this battle. So, so, so, so ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ frustrating. I can't even see more of the world, because I cannot get past some bosses. And that is on the story mode, which should be easy. If you just want to relax and enjoy a nice game full of storytelling, go somewhere else. I regret paying for this. This only led me to anger and frustration.
Как художественное произведение - восторг! Концепция мира, сюжет, постановка, музыка... до мурашек, низкий поклон! Но вот как к игре, тут у меня уже вопросов намного больше. Не зашли повторяющиеся и частые файты с рядовыми противникам. Боевая система начинает утомлять, после того как нащупываешь рабочий билд. При этом есть боссы со звёздочкой ближе к финалу и секретных локациях. Я бы порекомендовал тем, кого в большей степени цепляет сюжет, смело следовать лишь основным квестам, так не потеряете динамику повествования. У разработчиков был небольшой бюджет, но и при этом у них было гибкое воображение, любовь к деталям и желание создать проникновенную историю. Получилось! Спасибо!
