Fresh Noir Detective story.
Borrows heavily from Altered Carbon basic premise, which I like.
The world building and inmersion are just fantastic.
Just for that, I am doing a second playthrough

Very relaxing game. Works great if you want to put your mind in something and relax.

Yet another Soldak game. It shares most of it's DNA with the other Soldak titles, It's a good thing.
The spin on Zombies and Desease, well, meh, but the game, as with all the Soldak games it's loads of fun

Really good user interface and game controls
I like the dense maps and biomes variety from the beginning
The gameplay is traditional and well executed.
Good production values.
Good set of preset characters
The price is more than fair.
It's always nice to have a "new" "old" rogue and dundeon crawler. Tradition is good in this case
as for the difficulty level, well, it's really subjective
some will find it ok, some will struggle but the important thing here is the fine execution of the formula

Very well polished NetHack overhaul, directly on top of the timeless original.
It's old school,in a good sense.
Timeless game, in the club of the kings, with rogue,adom and many others

Braveland Review.
Total Score : 4/10
Worth paying ? : meh
Replay value : None

The best characteristics of this game are that simplifies , concentrates and executes the Might and Magic and
King's Bounty formula very well. Turn based combat, with magic on a small / medium grid map.

The game's art is good and overall productions values are correct. The execution of the game overall is good.

What's the problem with the game then?.

Well if you simplify the formula, limiting units,magic and RPG elements to the
minimum extent, you need a lot of content to keep the user playing the game.

On a tablet / mobile environment, the game has more sense than in the PC scenario,even for a casual strategy game (the lack of content is just absurd).

It took me 4.1 hours on normal, to get 90% achievements and to finish the game.

Price tag compared with other games like this, makes the final scenario score even lower.

Rise of the Argonauts Review
General Score : 7/10
Worth playing ? : Yes
Replay value : Yes, but not for me.

Be warned that I played the whole game using a gamepad, and I do not consider any other way to play such games if not with an xbox controller or game pad. On the combat part of the game, because of this, your mileage may vary in contrast to mine.

Perfect example of one good game, that is a victim of it's own ambitions, but at least for me, this time, it is a positive thing.

Sometimes you can use Metacritic as a external support for your own conclusions:
Critic score:59
User score:7.2

You know why ??, because many of the players that reviewed the game on Metacritic and myself ,had the balls to hold up and finish the game, not like those "critics" that gave the game a 59.

Let aside the "twists" developers did on Greek mythology to build up the game, it excels on the story itself, voice acting and companions.

The message of humility, courage, wisdom, discipline and justice (Athena's virtues) spread all along the game's story, combined with other's Greek gods good and bad virtues, is just a great teaching for everyone.

Hell,close to the ending of the game, developers even let you go over Greek mythology on the creation of the world and all living things.

Through all the game, I was amazed how the selfish and particular desire of Jason (to revive his dead wife) was coped , mixed and contrasted with all this mythology, where serving the others and acting for the greater good above our own desires is the goal.

The first 8 hours of the game, I must admit that there is too much of dialog and too little on action.

The dialog system is smart, every dialog option you take is tied to a different god, so it's an alignment system. The way you think, the way you respond to dialogs, aligns you more with one of other Greek god(s).

All the deeds you achieve, via combat, quests, achievements or dialogs can be praised to a different god,thus, giving you access to different buffs and abilities trees.

First 8 hours of the game, this buffs and abilities might no seem much of a change, but later on, it is.

I specialized on Athena's (my favorite deity, of all there are) and the lighting - powers I got where an amazing spectacle on combat.

Combat pretty much is an arena combat, you get on a closed area, and fight your way out.

There are puzzles to be solved both in combat situations, and in normal quest situations.

3 different combat styles, really cool all of them. Sword, Mace and Spear.

Amazing usage of the shield ,and the shield charge against enemies to open up defenses.

The combat in general is really good, but at the second half of the game , it just rocks the boat.

Gods powers on combat are just the ice on the cake.

Companions are pretty useless on combat (unless you buff them al lot via skill trees), but all of them have great personality, characterizations and dialogs. You choose 2 of them to go with you , on different places.

So first half of the game, gets you into the plot with a lot of dialog, backtracking,some lackluster quests an little combat...... This is where I think most of the people quit playing the game.

Second part of the game, just gets better and better until there is no effort in continuing playing the game.

I must admit, that I managed to pass the first 6 hours because I like a lot Greek and Roman mythology, and I was thrilled with the game's plot, twists on the Jason story overall and with the general message on the game.

The scenarios are great and graphics are OK, besides some half ass job on some NPCs.

The fact there is no direct access to the map (you have to navigate menus to it) just makes me want to punch someone on the face.

Still the original FPS formula is better than any orher later game
Have fun with this ,as you will have
Excellent classic

This game is a hidden gem.

Lots of fun that overcome it's issues.

This game from Sigma Team is an easy to pick isometric shooter.

Despite it's age and graphics, the fun factor is great.

Also, the small but effective improvements you can buy allow you a bit of customisation
on the gameplay style.

Different weapons ARE different, and you have to be careful with reload times.

Hordes and hordes of aliens come to get you. You can also use the environment on your
favor, like doors , corridors ans such.

Sound assests are good. When you mix aliens with explosions, grenade launchers and mayhem,
it gets really really rewarding.

Usually this game along with others (from Sigma Team) appear on bundles,
or heavily discounted not only on steam but also in other sites (i.e. Indie Gala).

When you are bored, and want a quick and mindless session you can fire a chapter
, or even play a survival session.

Play it with v-sync off, to avoid some problems.

It runs on a toaster, so it's perfect for those (like me) that have ancient hardware around.
