Wormskull

This is a pretty massive game with many twists and turns. You get many party members to choose from. It is hard to pick your main 4 party characters. There are two things to keep in mind during gameplay. First, when you are in Oni's town the second time in late game, do NOT exit the town to the north or you suffer a game ending glitch. I had to go back 30 hours to my last save. I am not good at multiple slot saving, so totally my fault. Second, if you are a completionist and you want to craft all item, be sure to keep at least one honey. It is required for late game crafting and the material is not available anywhere, you get it early on.

[H1] Wormskull: Review [/h1] TL;DR: This is a well-done RPG Maker game with some original twists compared to classics of the genre. While one can feel the solo dev was still cutting its teeth, the low price point more than makes it up for it. I have added Wolf Moon Studios to the list of indie dev I follow closely. [b] Pros: [/b] [list] [*] The whole system works, I like the leveling and the skills getting stronger as you use them etc... [*] Lots of playable characters, lots of combinations and synergies to tinker with, this is simply cool [*] Lots of shiny loot early, at 6h in the game I have already a sword called Soul Stealer [*] The story seems to unfold in an original way, we barely know who the PC is, and why monsters are after him. Then the curtain rises slowly. I am still too early to have a strong opinion on the story, so I might edit later [/list] [b] Cons: [/b] [list] [*] Age marks like benched characters not leveling, poor equipment comparison when buying in shops and this kind of stuff [*] Crafting is optional, but crafting weapons and armor is verfy powerful. And leveling mining could not be more tedious: clicking repeatedly on a rock block with enough pick axes in the inventory [/list]
