About
Follow the story of the purple-cloaked runaway wizard, Arif, on his quest to save his friend’s life. In a world where wizardry is outlawed, the magicians, Arif and his companion Veleus, were captured by a group of agents during their escape from the Kingdom of Duredyll and thrown into the dungeons. One day, Veleus, was sentenced to fight for his life in Atixa’s Grand Colosseum, run by a powerful mage by the name ‘Parthax’. Veleus fought valiantly, but was severely injured and incapacitated following his defeat. Arif heard rumors of his condition and knew the only way to save his friend would be to surpass any opponent standing in his way of attaining the champion’s prize, his friend’s only salvation, the Gift of Parthax.

The game is 100 % functional AFTER you delete the GiftOfParthax_Data/StreamingAssets directory. After that the game will create properly formatted files and you can progress beyond the difficulty selection. It would take the developer five seconds to fix this issue. The game is not really "abandoned" seeing that it has all of the content to complete the story. The only dysfunctional feature is the inability to change the arch spell or to manually add runes to it. The game is not long, though it is 5 "seasons" x (4+1) stages of the same arena gameplay. Luckily the game is only about 3.0 hours long when played on Easy and ends with a credits roll after beating Parthax. The game seems have gotten fixes after the old reviews and a lot of the old glitches such as the spell switching glitch seem to be no longer present. The next "big" fix the developer should do is simply deleting the TXT files in the StreamingAssets directory so that the game can finally run out of the box. Do that, make a patch fix post about and the game will instantly stop being as bad as the the negative ratings imply. I have been told that this platform allows quick patch go-throughs without slow curation steps, so there is zero excuse to not do it PRONTO. The game is generally mid. It works as what it tries to be. Just delete the StreamingAssets TXT files from the depot release branch etc. already.

Gift of Parthax é um jogo onde você controla um aprendiz de mago e deve sobreviver a batalhas em uma arena. O jogo em si é bem legal, possui gráficos simples, dificuldade moderada, a movimentação é boa, os controles são bem intuitivos, conforme você vai sobrevivendo as batalhas você pode ir comprando mais magias, poções, etc. A câmera do jogo é meio que uma visão de cima, em alguns momentos ela chega perto e em outros momentos ela fica longe (isso as vezes atrapalha, mas não muito). Os únicos dois problemas do jogo são: - Que ele simplesmente não entra (ele trava na tela de save... mas tem como resolver este problema com algumas dicas da comunidade); - Durante várias vezes, o game simplesmente 'crasha' do nada e trava até o PC (e não é problema do meu PC... ele é muito bom). Resumindo, é um jogo que vale a pena se os desenvolvedores arrumarem estes dois problemas. Nota 7/10. Recomendo! (Se continuar do jeito que está não recomendo!)
탑다운 슈터라고 되어 있어서 던전 탐험 방식을 생각하고 시작했는데, 그게 아니라 정해진 아레나에서 정해진 조합의 적들과 싸우는 방식입니다. 배경도 바뀌지 않고 상점-대기실-아레나(경기장)만 왔다갔다 합니다. (1시간밖에 안해서 혹시 나중에 더 다양해질지는 모르겠네요) 도트 그래픽은 괜찮은데, 게임플레이에 눈에 띄는 단점이 좀 많네요. 4가지 슬롯에 배정하는 마법을 이용해 공격하는데, 단순 평타에 해당되는 기본 파이어볼 마법도 쿨타임이 1초 정도 있어서 연사가 안됩니다. 한발 쏘고 좀 걷다가 또 한발 쏘고 해야 해서 답답해요. 히트박스가 꽤나 큰데 주인공 캐릭터 이동은 굼떠서, 마찬가지로 쿨타임이 있는 대시로 회피기동을 하지 않으면 그냥 얻어맞아야 하는 공격이 많아요. 그럼에도 포션은 한번에 체력이 회복되는게 아닌 서서히 회복되는 방식이라 답답함이 배가됩니다. 게다가 거슬리는 버그도 있네요. 시작하자마자 난이도 선택하고 화면이 넘어가지 않아서 포럼을 뒤져보니, 로컬 파일 들어가서 /Gift of Parthax_Data/StreamingAssets 폴더를 지워야 정상 진행된다는 답이 있더라구요. 이런 버그가 왜 남아있는지 이해가 안됩니다. 또 첫번째 보스를 깰 즈음 ESC키가 먹지 않는 버그가 발생했는데, 이게 게임을 종료했다가 다시 실행해도 사라지지 않아서 저는 여기서 접습니다 ㅜㅜ 왜냐면 ESC키를 눌러서 나오는 메뉴에서 마법 슬롯 편집을 할 수 있거든요. 게임 종료를 ALT+F4로 해야 하는 건 덤... 개발사의 첫 게임이던데 다음 작품부터는 좀 더 다듬어서 나왔으면 좋겠습니다.
Забагованная, некоторые ачивки из-за этого не открываются. Игра однообразна - плюс-минус одинаковые арены с плюс-минус одинаковыми врагами. Можно легко пройти базовым огненным шаром. Сюжет для галочки. Не рекомендую. P.S. Если вы всё-таки купили/получили эту игру и после начала новой игры она прост виснет на открытой странице попробуйте следующее: Заходим в библиотеку стим - находим Gift of Parthax - заходим в настройки - локальные файлы - обзор - в открывшейся папке заходим в 'Gift of Parthax_Data' - удаляем папку 'StreamingAssets'.
After selecting a diffuculty for my game, the text dosen't appear, and I can't hear a voice, nothing happens, any idéa on what I can do? There is a comment talking about how to fix it, now that I've played it, it's great.
After selecting a new save, you're prompted with the dificulty setting. After selecting it, the game does not progress in any way whatsoever. The music keeps playing though. Would not recommend.
不能玩..
The game is broken. You can't even start a new game without meddling with the save files. This is a long known problem too that the devs just never cared to fix. Some achievements are broken as well. The gameplay is boring and monotonous. You play 25 levels (5 seasons with 5 levels each). I nearly completed the first season and all levels have been the same so far, the only difference being slightly stronger enemies. The way the combat can be customised is a nice idea but the the devs added achievements for you to try and only use one kind of spell, which kinda makes the whole thing obsolete. Even if you do change up the spells you end up running and shoting in the arena. The game also does not seem to offer much content. The first season takes 30 minutes to complete, the whole game reportedly 3-4 hours. All in all very disappointing and broken game.
Läuft nicht!
Hat mich gar nicht angesprochen. Grafik, Story einfach alles!!! LG. smokenate
