Norega Reviews

Man, I really don't write reviews. I'll make an exception. This was on my wishlist for a long time. I really enjoy buying games from small and lone developers. I especially like things in the idle genre because so much of the games are normally experimental. I assumed that would be the case here because the graphical quality was so obviously sprite based. I was really excited, for some reason, about what this game might entail. This game has 5 enemies. In order to beat the game you just need to kill the fifth enemy. You only have to kill each enemy a single time. The final "boss" (enemy) has 800 health. You can get to this point in... really essentially no time at all. ~45 minutes maybe? I'm not really sure. I didn't know how barren this game was before I left it idling overnight expecting to have actual gameplay. There are immense amounts of bugs. The story is *incredibly* bare bones. What you see in the description is basically it. "You play as Kurt, a Knight in training, and your task is to feed up Kurt's stats so that he can improve in Strenth and be able to defeat the tougher monsters found on the outsirts of Norega." That's the ENTIRE story. Like... there's some dialog in the middle and at the end but it just didn't work for me at all? So.... that's the entire story. The game ends with you being in front of the king after you've killed 5 people. What a bizarre money grab. The time in the game is a reflection of my disbelief. I really can still hardly believe that there's nothing more to do in this game. I *actually* don't understand the point of the expansions as well. You don't need the stats to complete the "story". This is the absolute worst kind of money grab.
