Tyrant's Realm

Look, I really enjoyed this game. It was a lot of fun, scratched the roguelike itch, and I've sunk many more hours than I expected into this going "just one more run". However it's janky af, with certain bugs being completely run-ruining. And that's kind of disrespectful. There's nothing more annoying than playing a game like this (especially on a time-trial or something) than falling through the floor and having to reload the level, only to find that every single enemy has also fallen through the floor, along with the enemy that holds the key to the next level. The mouse controls seem to constantly get stuck for no reason despite fiddling with the options, which is totally weird for a low-spec game that could be practically run on a potato - but A quick google search tells me that these are not issues independent to me or my reasonable PC setup. Rather than choosing to fix these issues on an otherwise completely entertaining game, instead the devs have turned their focus to making DLC - which is great, but first: fix the bugs on your base game first.

This game is just good trust me

[b]Great pocket action rogue-like with souls-like elements. Tyrant's Realm is focused on pure fun gameplay and mostly nothing else, which is absolutely not a bad thing.[/b] You run, kill, pick/swap items from chests/barrels, go to the next room, upgrade items/stats at altars, kill more, rinse & repeat a few times, and after several rooms you might make it to the Merchant's Lounge. There, you refill your health flask and buy/unlock items (which are then available in the item pool, also in subsequent runs), flask upgrades, and hidden passages. From the Merchant's Lounge, you can advance either to a boss room or to the next biome (after defeating the current biome's boss), until finally encountering the titular Tyrant. If (when) you die, you start over from the first biome with default equipment (unless you bought perks for random starting gear from the item pool) and as many flask uses as times you upgraded it (or default 3). Combat mostly resembles the first 2 parts of Dark Souls, so it might not fit players who prefer more fast-paced titles. Even though it lacks anything beyond light/heavy melee attacks + armor's special (if available), block/parry, and dodge, I found it really satisfying nevertheless. For a game that's priced at 5$, it offers quite a lot when it comes to replayability, especially if you hunt for all the achievements. That's an easy recommendation from me.

Yah it's kind of half baked but I can't dislike it. What it gets right it gets very right. The devs clearly are huge fans of the early souls games as from the first minute you feel almost the exact same vibe as waking up in Undead Asylum; vibe and controls. It's hard to explain but after the ton of soulslikes I've played, none has felt this one to one with that as this game (not that they all were trying to though). But it also captures the PS1 style pretty on point as well. Translating the souls combat and graphics to still feel like you're playing that and nightmare creatures at the same time. Everything down to how your character moves feels authentic, and with a bunch of optional effects to add to the aesthetic authenticity. But for the half baked aspects, even a bit over an hour in I already feel like I've kind of seen essentially everything the game has to offer. It could be excused for being a PS1 throwback but it's probably most likely just undercooked. The roguelike elements don't really change much besides stats of your equipment. The level layouts are just essentially open rooms with enemies. And the bosses are mechanically just supped up enemies. I still am enjoying it for what it is, but they really could have done a lot more with the concept.

Метапрогрессия каловая, боёвка каловая, билдострой каловый. Вывод: как рогалик игра полная шляпа.

Rigoberto Patapocha se parte la pierna y se le que toa pocha, no sabe si recomendar o no este juego

Cool, short, clunky rougelite souls-like with retro 3d graphics and dark souls vibe

the game is okay, I'm pissed about the camera controls and sometime questionable dodge windows. when I totally thought I was HIT and times I'm for sure far enough away and get ended - KILL and ended my run. there are 3 attacks not just 2 that other are commenting on. their is a parry that is difficult to master but probably is required in these tight spaces. you do have a fair chance to block the first attack but then the second you better reposition and roll. 7 out of 10 it's totally a game where you get HOT and go for 40 minutes and die. and the ONE more RUN happens.

This is a fun souls-like with rouge-lite elements blended in. The story is simple and the gameplay loop is satisfying. Every weapon I unlocked with the merchant I found myself trying to use at least once. I had completed every difficulty by my third hour of gameplay with only achievements left to grind out. Worth a buy. Satisfied purchase.
