Spellbook Demonslayers

TLDR: Avoid this developer. Neat concept, can be fun for a bit, but the developer is a mess. This is their second game from what I can tell though they have some mods they've made. Their first game promised a big update and then was abandoned. Fast forward and the same thing happened here, promise of a big update then vanished for almost two years. Fast forward a bit more and the dev showed up on Steam to promise a big update this month, they then proceeded to argue with and insult people in the comments for that announcement. Not the sort of behavior any dev should have. And then to top it off here we are at the end of the month, nothing from the dev in their Discord server, they went quiet here on Steam, and still no update. People understand life causes problems but going silent and then insulting your community is not how to handle it. Edit: Shortly after making a post on the discussions page for this game asking about the update that was supposed to come out this month I was banned from the discussions page and the discord. Dev is just silencing anyone that speaks bad about the game.

I would strongly advise against purchasing this game as it is currently being falsly advertised on steam, and may or may not ever receive another update. The information listed under "about this game" is false. None of what you see there is currently present in the game. The Dev claims that it is coming in an update "soon". However he has been saying that for over a year and the game has not been updated in over 2 years.

Dev does not care about the players and has completely alienated them and has been quite insulting to players in the forums after getting slight backlash from their latest beta announcement where they plan to change the entire genre of the game there is no mechanics or gameplay from the original game in this new beta that they have announced after a long period of radio silence, the dev has a habit of abandoning their games and disappearing.

Scam dev who bans you from the games community for insightful reasons such as "Whoops!" Do not waste your money. Every game they have is still in early access and either abandoned or being changed from the original promise.

Game was good, but dev keeps completely changing it and clearly doesn't know what to do with it. I doubt it will ever leave early access. The dev disappeared for a year and then came back with a promise of a new demo for some update that who knows how long until we see it. Dev is also super rude and has a real thin skin - they do not accept any critique about their game or their absense / lack of communication. Avoid this dev and their games.

Dev shows up once in two years to announce that something very cool will happen very soon. And to bark at confused players who find this situation not ideal.

Abandoned. Don't buy.

Do not buy this game Do not buy any game this person / developer. Look at the past game this Dev made, unfinished. Look at the last time this game got update, unfinished. Now the Dev is making another game. Not only that, the Dev is not a very good a communicating or following any path of development.

I got all of the achievements in this a while ago and it's just....not good. It's quite bland and there are many other VS-likes or Arena Survivors that are simply better. This game especially lacks information that will leave you wondering how weapons interact with stats and even why you're surviving as long as you are. The menu is a god awful mess, especially the summoning menu that is just word vomit that doesn't get the point across. The visuals are nice, and I liked the premise behind the game but that's sort of it. I feel bad being rude but the dev has abandon this project, mostly used the steam news function to post about bundles, talked about completely changing the game into a totally different style, and just now posted (more than a year later) a teaser for the next update that makes the game look even further from what I originally bought. Games change in early access, I know that, but it feels like the dev just wants to make a completely different game. Although the game is cheap I still can't recommend it as there are far better alternatives in the same genre and thanks to the dev you aren't even sure of what you're buying with how much they want to change

This game had good foundations, but sadly, it's incomplete and has been abandoned by the developer. Do not buy.
