The Warlock of Firetop Mountain

Clearly a crappy phone game that would normally be free to play with paid DLC and other microtransactions. If you like your combat to have exactly 2 options, move or attack, you'll love it. If you want something more interesting than that, look anywhere else really.

not sure why people are complaining over the difficulty, i found the amount of times i died quite fair, and have so far always finished a run with all characters i started. yes, sometimes some choices instakill you, but you get 3 "restarts" in total, and checkpoints are fairly placed. what helped me "avoid" constantly dying is trying to understand and act as the character i picked. based on their bio and stats i kept asking myself, "what would they choose in this situation?". this led to many memorable moments during gameplay even as a video game, i'd still primarily recommend this game to people who enjoy reading novels, as the visual elements mostly serve as orientation and enrichment rather than explaining what is going on - the latter is done in great detail and skilfully in prose there are more than a dozen characters to play, but they only differ in stats and personal quest, and add little variation to the narrative flow. this leads to the first few playthroughs becoming very memorable, but later ones rather repetitive. i'd recommend playing this once every few weeks/months, to keep things fresh, or picking those characters whose bio seems the most interesting and enjoying a few playthroughs with those the combat system is very unique and rewards patience, manoeuverability and learning your opponents' attacks. it takes a while until it clicks, but after a while it flows very smoothly all in all a very fleshed out and immersive experience, with fantastic writing and a surprisingly fitting combat system. highly recommendable for bookworms!
