TombStar Reviews

The game itself is pretty good. It's fun, has decent replayability etc. I'd recommend it, except for 2 things, one of which is a deal breaker. 1) Often it doesn't start. It'll go to a grey screen, but not get further. Sometimes a reboot sorts it, sometimes it doesn't. Often if you get it start the first time, it won't start a second time without a reboot. Drivers are all up to date, so not sure what the deal with that is. Seems lots of other people are experiencing the same based on the forum discussions. I could just about put up with this though, I guess. 2) This is the deal breaker. My game got stuck in a state where it was using a "save game" with only a single life, with no way to start a new game. You could choose a different area, different load-out, even a different character, but it would always drop the lives to 1 as soon as you start. Whilst it's not a particularly hard game, starting with a single life constantly makes it much, much less fun. I've cleared caches, uninstalled and reinstalled, all to no avail. That in itself isn't the deal breaker. What is, though, is that I reached out to the developers multiple times by email about this issues just to be completely ignored. This game is therefore abandonware, with no support or interest from the developers. It's a real shame.

It's a bad clone of enter the gungeon, with very basic progression. The dropped weapons are very disappointing, the green and blue are mostly trash and starter weapons are better. I just dont bother opening chests anymore... Only 3 characters and one of them is impossible to play given the reflexes you need for the game, and one is is way more powerful than the others. The difficulty is very high from the start. The game is not bad, but it does not invent anything, it just takes everything from the other ones without doing anything great, just average everywhere, no surprises, nothing to motivate you to go further.
