Elements: Soul of Fire

Not Recommended

Каждые 3 минуты геймплея ты размениваешь на 12 минут диалогов-катсцен. Что-то не тянет меня проходить дальше.

[b]Story:[/b] It's somewhat interesting, although it requires a fair amount of reading since I feel some conversations are unnecessarily long/verbose. [b]Visual:[/b] I quite like both the hand-drawn art and 8-bit texture. I also didn't notice any stock/stock-looking asset. [b]Audio:[/b] It does its job, but nothing special. [b]Gameplay:[/b] Based on both the store page description and my own experience, it seems the gameplay was intentionally made to be difficult. I was unable to win fight against the boss even with best gear and items I could buy, since I didn't bother to grind. Grinding seems to be necessary since I noticed the stats increase is rather big (about 50% max HP and 20% attribute increase from level 3 and 4). I don't really like grinding since you just need to spam attack against weaker enemies or keep using same strategy for stronger ones. I can see effort poured by the developer, but the combat aspect ruined my personal experience. The story isn't good enough to make me cheat total gold/character stats and continue playing the game either. Note that my actual gameplay is only about 1 hour.
