Errant Kingdom Reviews

I put off playing this game, hoping that there would be an eventual update, but given the dev's silence I figured I might as well try it out given that it's been gathering dust in my library for some time now, and I really enjoyed WTNC. All in all, I have to say that I was really quite pleasantly surprised. I binged the game (ambassador - raiden route) over two days and was pretty hooked. It's clear where budget cuts had to be made and corners had to be cut, but all in all I think it's a really solid story with some wonderful characters. The fact that there are three full storylines/paths was incredibly ambitious of the team, and while I wish that there had been more romance content (and perhaps a proper epilogue?), I overall am pretty impressed. The big downsides for me are the music (I loved the music in WTNC, and for some reason the music in this game just doesn't... go that well with the scenes?) and the occasional typos, though those are (strangely) more prevalent at the start of the game, when that sort of thing would make an impression on a reader. At times the character expressions also don't match up with the writing. But given that the devs already cut the price of the game considerably I'm willing to forgive them these slight downsides. It wouldn't be hard to fix up the game, but given that I'm not sure if we're ever getting Call Me Under, I assume that this probably isn't high on their to-do list.
