i no english very good, but the game have cards...

EL juego es bastante repetitivo, pero va de ser el "lider" de un grupo de mercenarios y cazar recompensas en diferentes mapas. Por lo tanto el juego se torna bastante estrategico cuando tienes q tener en cuenta contratos , relaciones entre los miembros del grupo , reparto de ganancias , lealtad y todo eso. En resumen un juego de estrategia al estilo antiguo bastante lineal. Por desgracia no me dejaba sacar captura de pantalla sino dejaria algunas de ejemplo. Lo recomiendo por los cromos y el precio accesible.

no se entiende ni mrd

I'm changing this review to 'recommend'. The developer has made a lot of positive changes over the last few days - you can tell he's really put some time in, and he is clearly listening to the community and implementing suggestions.

It's still not Baldur's Gate or OOTP, but I think Redemption is at a point now where it's worth $3.99. My impression is that the dev is going to be improving this for a while longer yet.

I'll keep my original review below so it is still on record, but this applies to the original version that I bought on the release date.

****************************************************************************************************************

For the first five minutes, it looks like this game is going to be great. You review the different characters you can hire, and they have detailed looking descriptions like, 'Derp of Derpville tends to make bad decisions under pressure'.

And then you get to the actual gameplay and there's nothing there at all. You don't directly control the party during the quests, which is fine, but you don't get anything that bonds you to the characters which is really what this game should be about. There's a handful of attributes for each character, but no individual stats or personality to them. I've just spent over an hour playing, and I can't tell you the name of any one of my characters.

And that bit of detail in my first paragraph about someone not handling pressure? You can't see that, or anything like that, having an effect on the game mechanics at all. Same with morale.

People are saying that this is like an OOTP Baseball for fantasy role playing. Well, I've been playing OOTP for 13 years and games like it for much longer than that. And no... it's not like OOTP in the least. It has very vague aspirations in that direction but it's far too simplistic. It's more like a very basic mobile game that's been converted to PC. You will see everything that this game has to offer in the first 10-15 minutes of play. The artwork is fairly nice, but that doesn't mean anything in games like this.

I hope the devs continue to add depth to this game because the concept is good. But until then I can't recommend it even at this really cheap price.

I don't understand the people bashing this game. I'd recommend playing it for longer than 20 minutes before leaving a scathing review.

This is a great game. If you ever wanted to play a management game a la Footy Sim but dont give a s**t about sports, then this is the game for you. I mean, it's not nearly as in-depth as sports management games, but it doesn't need to be. It's got the right amount of everything.

If you are a huge fantasy nerd, (like me) and want a change of pace from your standard RPG, pick this up!

Redemption: Eternal quest is a game like Football Manager for Roleplaying/Dungeoneering.

You have less, and no direct, influence, just in critical moments. You can heal and train your characters in between quests. You get to make decisions while on a quest: Which path of two are you going to take? Do we enter the ruins or not? Who will go on the quest?

It's quite simple and entertaining, with a nice, narrating touch to it. The music adds to this storytelling atmosphere.
It's like a roleplaying book in its game flow.

The game in its current form entertained me quite a while, trying out specializations and strategies - it helps if you like numbers, though, and keep track of your characters.

The author so far makes regular updates and there is still much which can be expanded and filled with some flesh in this game. Also, access to character information in all screens would help the game, as you wont need a "cheat sheet" with your characters next to you while playing.

But all in all it's a pleasurable experience. Casual, fun and ideal if you have your head full with other things: Then it will relax and entertain very effectively.

I'd buy it again, no doubt, for its full price. And if it should happen to be on a sale and you like the idea, just go for it! You won't regret it. It is fully functional and for me, it was bug free.

Thumbs up!

True to its name, there is no 'winning' in Redemption Eternal Quest, just on-going-ness. Given that there isn't really any dynamic play or surprise events, I imagine REQ to be the kind of game that would be popular on Facebook or as a mobile game--in-game purchases, linking with 'friends,' & timing out tasks. If you take all that away, you get this sort of game--not a dull but not compelling enough to return to with any regularity.

Nice little fantasy sim game, but needs some work. This is one of those lukewarm "thumbs-in-the-middle" recommendations.

This game gets unfairly dinged because people/reviewers don't take the time to realize what kind of game this is-- a simulation game. You don't embark on the quests yourself, there is no "combat" even point-and-click. You just hire/fire adventurers, pay their contracts, train them, choose what locations you want to visit and which adventurers you want to send, and reap the rewards (or pay the consequences). You also obtain minion cards that you use in certain "battles" against other monsters (see screenshot #6 on the store page).

The game is actually kind of fun if you like this kind of simulation game, but it lacks polish and had at least one serious bug I encountered that required essentially starting over.

Pros:
(+) Configuration options (duration, whether or not heroes can die, etc.-- see screenshot #2)
(+) Basic gameplay (choosing adventurers, quests, entering "dungeons" etc.) is fun although rather basic
(+) Fun little events, decision points, and "character development"
(+) Minion art
(+) You can rename your heroes to make them seem more "personal"
(+) Low price, and has been in bundles
Cons:
(-) Character art- they all look very similar, no female adventurers
(-) Serious bug in my playthrough where quest counter reset after reloading a save (it was a 30 quest sim, so basically I had to start over)
(-) A fair amount of RNG such that you're not sure if there's anything you can really base your choices on, vs. it all being complete luck
(-) minimal non-looping music (although what there is isn't bad)
(-) No resolution options, no fullscreen option...just a window
(-) User interface is subpar-- generally no "cancel" option
(-) Few steam features: has cards, but no overlay, screenshots, cloud saves, or achievements.

So although overall it's maybe a 6/10, it's cheap and kind of fun. Could go to 7 or 8 out of 10 with some additional polish (art, music), bugfixes, UI improvements, and maybe a little more gameplay.

Not bad.

Short Review:
This is worth a few hours of play time, but its value beyond that is dubious.

Long Review:
I actually paid 99 cents for the game, despite clicking the button saying I did not as I reviewed it. To say a game is not "worth" 99 cents is one thing, while to not recommend it is another. Is the game worth 99 pennies? Maybe. 199 pennies? Perhaps. Do I recommend you spending any number of pennies on this? No.

What to expect, from my game journal:

[8 September 2016]
I bought this game based on its self-description: “a casual RPG/Sim game which combines the feel of an RPG with roster management sim mechanics.” Thus far, it is exactly what I was looking for, but whatever RPG elements are purportedly within the game, I cannot find them. It seems more like a fantasy sim would be a more apt description, the RPG element being a misnomer without more role playing elements to the game. In that sense, it might be better described as a JRPG without any combat or storyline. But with all critique of the self-description aside, the first hour of playing it was a lot of fun, though repetitive. As for how repetitive, I haven’t decided yet.

[13 September 2016]
As soon as Heroes of the Storm went down for maintenance, but only after realizing that all Blizzard games were going down for maintenance, I decided this a good chance to break down the game’s nuts and bolts. Overall, the game is pretty intuitive, assuming that the player reads the text tips on each screen.
To kick things off, you have the choice of how long of a campaign you want to play, limited either by a term of years or a fixed amount of quests unless selecting the endless campaign option. Then, you’re given some gold and told to hire six adventures, who at first blush seem to not be different from others in any way other than their statistics and pact duration, i.e. time that they’ll be at your service.
Looks can be deceiving, as the old saw says. Each adventurer has two traits, some good, some bad. Examples of the former include having a lower chance of injury while off questing, finding more treasure on quests, or learning more quickly at the school (oh—there’s a school to improve attributes at the cost of gold). The latter’s examples include perceived laziness and, my favorite description, a tendency “to suffer silly injuries and not try to fight through them,” indicating that the character, once injured, might be sitting on the bench for longer than usual.
After hiring six adventurers, a player has several options for how to go about his or her turn: (1) Send one to four of your six adventurers on a quest; (2) Perform administrative malarkey including healing, resurrecting, or negotiating pact terms for the adventurers; (3) Hire new adventurers to sub in when others are dead or are otherwise released from their pact; (4) Send adventurers to school to improve their stats; (5) Redeem prestige points; and (6) Draw a random minion card for the displayed cost in gold. Only the first and last of these are worth elaboration, with the first potentially resulting in combat, injury, treasure troves of gold, death, morale boosts or slumps.
During combat, a player can use up to three minion cards to improve the chance of winning. In fact, it’s the only way a player can directly influence a combat. Putting the management in roster management, the adventurers are otherwise on their own, and the combat is resolved based on their, and their enemy’s, character stats. Note that the player doesn’t know the combat strength of the enemy until the player uses (or doesn’t use) minion cards.
Unless I’m mistaken, which I’m known to be, the game suffers in the management department by requiring a player to send at least one adventurer to one of three quests to complete a turn. Differently stated, to advance a turn in the game, the player has to select from one of three quests, rather than sending any combination of adventurers to complete different quests. As a leader of a band of merry men, or at least merry so long as their morale is kept high, it seems this would, or should, be a feature. Alas, ‘tis not.
In closing, I must complain about the game’s audio button, namely because it doesn’t work. I must also complain about the game’s aesthetics, lackluster to be sure. A good game in this genre need not be a stellar work of art, but it must at least fulfill those hallmarks of a roster management sim in lieu of pretty graphics. The inability to simultaneously dispatch your adventurers to multiple locations leaves me wanting more, too.
But because I’ve been tinkering around with it in endless campaign mode, I’m trying to reserve judgment until completing the game with fixed parameters. Specifically, beginning with a 30 quest campaign, followed by 60, then 25 years, and finally 50 and/or 100 years, depending on how long the game manages to keep my attention and/or how awake I am when Blizzard maintenance ends. To say things are not looking good for this game, both as to my humble opinion of it and its subpar graphics, is an understatement.

The Thirty-Quest Campaign. I lost halfway through. There may be more here than meets the eye, because I’m going again. There actually was a semblance of a story unfolding, as well as other events such as internal strife within my team of adventurers that I could not quell, so I recant to a minor degree my complaint of it lacking RPG elements proclaimed in the game’s description. Still, far from RPG it is, and nothing in my failure of the thirty-quest campaign changed my mind to the contrary. Nor do I anticipate my mind being so changed upon successful completion of this, or any, campaign. But not to demur what entertainment value the game does provide, my ordinary snap-judgment senses are being proven true, and I doubt whether I will ever successfully complete a campaign or if this game will ever be reopened on my PC.
