THYSIASTERY

I'm really enjoying THYSIASTERY. The visuals are great, the atmosphere is oppresive and the soundtrack is really well done. I like the skill system where your party is able to learn from one-another. The itemisation is fun too, always looking forward to drops to make your party stronger. I do wish there was a way to save character presets in the character creator however as having to rebuild every time to start over is kinda annoying. The combat is kinda jank, walking away from enemies can let them hit you 5 - 6 times in one tile movement, completely nuking your party. I think the game needs to be a little more aggresive when pulling you into combat mode to stop this from happening as it is a run ender. Your characters can also get one shot which is extremely annoying, from full health to just dead in one attack, doesn't feel fair or balanced when this happens. There is an extreme jump in difficulty when you get to the third boss. I do feel like there needs to be at least a level or two between this encounter as unless you cheese it, most player will be woefully underprepared for it. I managed to beat it, but I can imagine other players not bothering after dying to it as it feels unfair. Otherwise, enjoying my time with this game. I REALLY wish we could get a character preset system though.

No, this got terrible settings, don't bother.

First impressions: This is a beautiful game with loads of personality. I love how the art reminds me of old school RPG books without feeling too derivative. The music is perfect for playing alone in a dark room at night. And even though the design philosophy feels like a throwback, the responsive and intuitive controls felt conveniently modern. I look forward to dying a lot in this game. You should try it. (Also the Steam store thumbnail looks completely different from the game. They might want to fix that.)

挺好玩的

Amazing RPG with wonderful pixel-art and music. Very inspiring and very addictive.

아트 스타일과 던전 탐험이 매력적이나 이해하기 어려운 스킬 학습 시스템, 적은 이벤트, 벨런싱이 아쉬운 위저드리 + 로그라이크 게임 ★★★★☆ 고전풍 위저드리류 게임을 충실히 잘 구현한 게임으로 아트 스타일과 던전 탐험이 매력적이라서 몰입감이 매우 좋고 한 발자국 나아갈 때마다 이 다음엔 뭐가 있을지 궁금한 느낌을 잘 살림 그러나 아쉬운 점이 많음 1) 이해하기 어려운 스킬 전수와 학습 시스템 성장 포인트(ap)를 통해 동료는 서로에게 알맞은 스킬을 전수하거나 학습할 수 있다. 이 시스템이 게임의 큰 매력 중 하나라고 생각하는데 좀 더 직관적이고 알기 쉽게 인 게임에서 설명될 수만 있다면 좋지 않을까... 2) 밸런스 문제 일단 탱커 스킬들을 지닌 캐릭터는 중반부 부터 쓸모가 없어진다. 적의 공격을 대신 받아줘야하는데 이 게임 중반부 이상가면 적이 광역기를 퍼부어서 사실상 쓸모가 없어진다. 그냥 12랩 이상 찍힌 딜 포텐셜 높은 마법사 캐릭터, 힐러가 훨씬 좋음 물론 스킬 전수, 학습 시스템을 통해 다른 형태로 변환시킬 순 있지만 그냥 처음부터 동료가 마법사, 힐러로 뽑히길 기도하는게 좋다고 봄 3) 너무 적은 랜덤 이벤트 그래도 나름 로그라이크의 구성을 지녔음에도 필드에서 이벤트가 너무 적다 패치를 통해서 이벤트가 더 많이 추가되면 더 재밌을 거 같음 도파민이 나오는 도박성 이벤트나 동료를 변경할 수 있는 이벤트라던가? 4) 아쉬운 스테이지 구성 개인적으론 스테이지가 좀 분할되면 좋지 않을까 싶다. 1스테이지에서 파티 구성이 별로 좋지 않으면 2스테이지에서 끔살당하고 사출되는 경우가 많아서 감성적으론 별로였다. 차라리 2스테이지를 쉽게 만들고 현 2, 3스테이지의 중간 난이도를 갖는 스테이지가 그 사이에있다면 좋지 않을까 싶음 이런 단점이 있음에도 너무 재밌게 잘 만들었음 도트와 로그라이크, 다크 판타지를 좋아하는 사람들이면 매우 강추함

SUch an obscure gem that im so glad I found, if you like Dungeoncrawlers with some roguelike stuff this will be for you, reminds me a bit of Wizardry in terms of difficulty. Lotta of class variety with lotta customization options. My best run so far has been a "Ninja" that got kinda rerolled into a Barbarian cause I got a massive STR damage weapon + BErserker armor/relic so I cant command what they do but they just hit massively hard... they also take +50% extra damage. Massive recomendation

Amazing game in my humble opinion, with a beautiful visual art style and even a wide choice of color schemes. What really struck me with this game, is how everything fits together and works so well to create a certain feel and a believable world the protagonist is cast into. There is the sound, visual art design, backstory, comments from partymembers. Different stages that look and feel different and the huge variety of foes, that oftentimes just look spectacular. While playing it reminded me of the sense of mystery some games gave me back in my childhood. A gem crafted with a ton of artistic craftsmanship, love for the visual art for the detail. I am glad i found it and chose to get it, got so much more fun out of it then i expected. Took me 10 hours to beat the game for the first time and there is more to see, find and unlock.

Wasted potential, could be fixed but I don't think it will be considering the direction taken by the devs. - the game has a lot of charm at first. The nice retro graphics, the soundtrack, the atmosphere of the overall design. It got everything you could ask for a nice dungeon crawler... - ...albeit it is a dungeon crawler which doesn't want you to dungeon crawl. Ennemies respawn, hidden timer which makes a huge boss appear, overall weak loot. Exploring dungeons just means taking unnecessary damage and wounds. Gaining a level is barely noticeable in terms of power. Exploring does not mean you'll get more powerful. - no variety at all. Each floor corresponds to a biome, and it will be the same biomes in the same order on each run. Each biome will get the same ennemies. Each run does not bring anything new because there is no metaprogression. So the only thing that makes each run different is the RNG... - ...and that's the issue. The game has too much RNG involved. Your party ? Random. Skill trees ? Random. Skills ? Random. Fights ? Absolutely random. Loot ? Definitely random. And it is not balanced at all. You can have a run with no significant loot (meaning no powerful stuff), a run with only mages (meaning getting one shot by random ennemies), a run with a balanced team but with stupid ass skills for each of them (yes, a passive which makes ice skills stronger on a character who doesn't have any ice skills is possible, or a warrior with bare minimum intelligence having access to spells). One enemy will barely scratch you one turn then instakill one member of your team the turn after. This game need a huge rework.
