My gambling addict friend said if I post a review on Embers: Return to Dragonland and it gets 350 likes and 150 Awards that he will buy me a case of beer and some vodka.. So I'm just gonna leave this here.
Misleading. It's tagged with partial controller support despite being nonfunctional on mouse and keyboard and only functional on controller. This causes the game to be advertised to mouse and keyboard audiences and controller audiences despite it only being available on the latter. Edit: This has been fixed. While I still don't recommend the game as I don't think it's particularly great, the developers are responsive and have shown to fix issues, so thats a plus.

"Embers: Return to Dragonland" is a nice looking but ultimately clunky and not so great 3D rendered 2D top down shooter that looks and feels like a console game but was launched on Steam instead by mistake. It's got co-op support, but the lack of KB+M controls kills this one. Insultingly, the developer insists that you should play this with a console peasant children's toy gamepad instead of KB+M. You cannot play this without a console peasant children's toy. Developers should try to be aware which platform they're designing games for. It's the responsibility of the developer to ensure the game runs well on the platform they're selling it on, with the primary peripherals that PC gamers use. The graphics in this game are really quite good, which at least makes the game look more appealing. And while it's vital for any game to have impressive visuals (gaming is a visual medium, after all), there's more to a game than just the graphics. To be worth a gamers time, the game must match top tier visuals with top tier gameplay, and that's not happening here. Not every "free" game really is. There's often MTX, or content locked behind DLC, or donations being requested, or any other number of things that could mislead gamers, but in this case I'm glad to say this really does appear to be a fully free game. Nothing demonstrates a developers belief in themselves and their work than giving it away without any remuneration. This is a service to themselves, and the gaming industry, and should be applauded. Of course, just because something is free, doesn't necessarily mean it's valuable. Even though this is "free", it failed to appeal to the 120 million+ gamers on Steam. SteamDB showed the game peaked at only 4 concurrent players... this is a dismal public reception. This was so bad they couldn't even give it away. Bearing in mind that free games don't add +1 to your game collector count, should you bother adding this to your library and downloading it? This is a "maybe" experience... if you have a lot of free time on your hands and nothing else to do, why not? But for the purposes of a review, this isn't something I can say everyone must try. It's not quite there. Valve doesn't give us a "maybe" option in reviews, but if they did, that's what I'd choose for this. It would be worth it if the developers understood which platform the game is made for.
[i] My Experience [/i] Unless it just looks awful from the jump, my co-op partner and I try most free cooperative games that release on Steam. [b]Embers[/b] seemed interesting enough - sort of a fantasy top-down shooter, featuring dragons. Although some of the reviews criticized the game's control scheme, we both used controllers and found the game to control fine. We played enough to retrieve one of the dragon eggs, but after we were defeated we didn't feel the urge to try again. The game is a little rough around the edges, from the inadequately signposted shrine where players can purchase skills to the ludicrous purple bat swarm that covers the whole screen and seems to take about 30 seconds to put down. For reference, this is much, much more time than any other enemy we faced. If you're looking for a fun, free top-down shooter to play with a friend, I'd recommend SAS: Zombie Assault 4 instead.
Bu işbirlikçi çift çubuklu nişancı aksiyonunda efsanevi ejderhaları canlandırarak mirasınızı goblinlerden kurtarın. Oyun güzel görünüyor. Ayrıca iyi bir fikir. Korkunç kontroller yüzünden oynamak zorlaşıyor. xbox denetleyici düzgün çalışsa güzel olacak.
Played for 3 minutes died uninstalled 10/10
Game looks nice. Also a good idea. Horrible controls. It was made for controller and the current keyboard mapping is horrible. We used X360CE to map a keyboard but the game really really needs controllers.
Jogo parece extremamente bom, pena que meu colega tem um pc batata ai não deu pra testar.
Тот кто придумывал управление гений, на клаве не играбельно Q в лево, Z вверх. Ну вы поняли
