The Adventurers

too many bugs, too many limits, too shallow. maybe in the future, now no recommended.

こんなゲーム待ってたってくらいめちゃくちゃ大好物なゲームなんだけど色々と惜しいなぁと感じるところ。 システムはカンパニー制のThe Iron OathとLow Magic AgeとWartalesとGodFallとかに似てるのでこれらが好きなら間違いなく入れ込めます。 【いいところ】 ・システム、世界観、基本全部好き 【惜しい部分】 ・UIが悪い 公式が日本語対応してくれたのはいいんですが、機械翻訳な上にフォントサイズの最適化がされておらず単純に読みにくいです。 ・コンテンツが少ない 現状寿命は1日程度です(笑) マップが狭く、敵の数も少ないので単調になりがち。 敵の初期配置もほとんど変わり映えすることなく戦略性は薄いです。 クエストも討伐、運送、護衛などジャンルはあるものの歯応えがありません。 ・装備の優劣があまりない 正直後衛陣は武器以外の装備を強化しなくてもスキルが優秀過ぎるので初期装備のままレベルMaxまでいけます。 ・職業のバランスが悪い どう考えても魔法使いが最強です。 ファイアボールの汎用性が高すぎてFFもないので撃ち放題です。 もうちょっと差別化して育成幅を持たせてくれると良きです。 ・良くも悪くも途中感がすごい 今後拡張が見込める要素(レベルキャップ上げたり拠点要素があったり)が垣間見えるんですが現時点ではやはり物足りなさが勝ちます。 サグラダファミリアゲーのLow Magic Ageと親和性を感じます(笑) まだまだ発展途上ではあるもののものすごいポテンシャルを感じるゲームです。 今後のアプデに大いに期待！

Promising game in the making. Regular updates. Active and responsive devs. It's a good look and start. The gameplay is over world map into tactical battle. Mercenary group very D&D adjacent. Action, Bonus Action, and Movement. If you're familiar with 5e you'll feel the inspiration. Energy system in place that paces your abilities think mana bar that fills up every turn your vitality effects the regen rate. Recent update has given enemies abilities. I didn't actually play this game before enemies had abilities but they definitely make for challenging fights. You can get in over head very easy. Save often. You can and will run into bad fights that could lead to wipes. The balancing needs adjusting, but that will always be a push and pull. You travel the map, hit up towns, your mercs have personalities and preferences that shape how you'll be adventuring. Maybe your resting in towns more often. Maybe you're camping to rest. It's up to you. Looking forward to playing and testing the game more!

This is the game I've waited for most of my life! So much depth behind it, great narration content and acting. Story arcs, great combat, and levelling. Best open world tactical game I own, and active devs, it's only going to get better.

This game has great potential, and the developer is very active and does his best to quickly fix bugs as they arise. I think many people aren't aware that this is a solo-dev indie game with a somewhat niche audience. Many bugs are being found upon release due to the sudden surge of new players combined with the large 1.0 update. I suspect that AI helped cook some of the quest dialogue, but the quality's still decent. Ultimately, I think that if the dev stays committed to polishing and debugging, this could be awesome. Give him a break and maybe some constructive criticism / bug reports?

You're probably thinking "this dude only played this 9 hours, why is he writing a review?" And the answer is that the game's pretty short. I got the already-inexpensive game on sale for like $9, and have run three companies of mercenaries (one of which was a "total party kill" victim). MAIN GAME LOOP. You visit a town hall for one of the villages in the area and pick some quests, which mostly involve going to a place and slaughtering the monsters inside. You can also hire mercenaries and pay money to rest, heal, arm up, and enchant, as well as sell off any loot you've picked up (and get paid for completed quests). To get to adventure sites, you travel around an overhead fantasy map that shows the towns and any discovered adventure sites. You can also on the way meet a variety of random encounters and pick mushrooms to mix potions in town (or you can sell them). The map and towns are 1980s style, which is to say they are pretty simple and stylized, but it's still fun to wander through. Not all the towns have the same stores, and so you might need to travel around a bit to find the place you need. QUESTS & COMBATS. When you reach a quest site, you usually get some evocative quest text and then dive into a battle, which resembles the old Gold Box games from SSI, if anyone remembers those. Your adventurers line up on one side of the map (or in the middle, during an ambush), and the monsters on the other side, and you act in initiative order one by one. Your characters have limited numbers of squares they can move and a variety of powers they can use, including spells and special attacks that drain renewable but limited resources. For example, the fighter can attack three enemies arranged in an arc in front of them, and the cleric has a heal spell that they can use in addition to attacking. It's again fairly simple and repetitive, but not unsatisfying. There isn't much exploring at dungeons; you really arrive and fight and then it's quest done. Nonetheless, it's a good time. CHARACTERS. Character creation is D&D-like for your main hero, with a set of stats like strength and charisma, a character class that determines your advancement tree, and a background that affects your stats in various ways. The mercenaries you recruit to fill out your part are rolled randomly and start at different levels and with better or worse stats. There are several classes like thieves, wizards, and druids, but I found myself relying a lot on the fighters (whose damage output is superior) and the cleric, who can heal you without healing supplies and resting. Wizard magic is a bit underwhelming; often my wizard hit harder with a sword than he did with a magic spell, which is a little odd. I personally felt the balance was a bit off. Leveling up is satisfying. You usually get some stat points to add and a power or two, picked from the "general" tree that everyone had access to or a class-specific tree. Powers are gated behind levels, so you can only select "Level 8" powers once you hit Level 8. The characters feel different enough that they're pretty fun to roll up and advance. GRAPHICS. It's a 1980s throwback game in almost every way. Battles are pixel art, while the overhead map is a hand-painted region map that a local Dungeon Master might have thrown your way circa 1989. If you like games like Monsters Den and Low Magic Age, this is likely to appeal to you. If you need 21st-century graphics, wait for the remake.

spammy little AI cash grab the author vibe-coded and lied about. you should learn how to prompt better and work on your attention to detail because my baby niece could have made something more coherent on her ipad. also the little text driven crises include stuff like searching for embezzlement or some kind of accounting audit? really? why don't you just add spreadsheets and a powerpoint sub-crisis? this is a weird knock-off of battle brothers that looked like it used charming pixel art at first before i realized the author just didn't use an AI that could generate images alongside his code.

基本コンセプトは良い、バトルブラザーズとかみんな好きじゃん、それのもっとこう、普通の冒険者っぽい感じなのでよい。 だけど、バトルブラザースでも、細々目的を出してくれるじゃん。傭兵団の目指すべき目的みたいなやつ。最後の大きな脅威とか。 用はそういう「メインクエスト」っぽいものが必要だと思う。サブクエストだけだと、どうしても作業っぽくなるので「大きなクエスト」の実装希望。
