Against All Odds Reviews

Another shovelware game that isn't worth playing. I've just finished this game. My (offline) playing time is a few minutes over [b]4 hours[/b] and I've cleared out every single extra dungeon. So what do you get here: a story...that couldn't be thinner. The evil leader kidnaps children to transform them. And oh dear, the hero is affected by this too. Without you knowing why, 3 more heroes come and lead him step by step to the villain. Of course, you shouldn't expect a map or minimap here. The dungeons are also, eh, very sparsely equipped. Not to mention the almost empty villages. After all, the world is very, very small and you'll quickly have visited all the places worth seeing. The dungeons are not only very unattractive, there are also only 1 or 2 different types of enemies. This is where a special feature of the game comes into play...you have a healer but even though he calls himself that, no wizard. At least not one that could do any decent damage with their spells. At least some (again, very few) NPCs tell you about additional dungeons. You can visit them to collect money, EXP and items.... The battles themselves are always the same and BORING. Just a little fun: the final battle is over quicker than some of the battles against normal hordes of enemies. And as a reward, you just see the hero telling his son that he must now train to become the next hero. So, once again, a total failure. I wouldn't recommend it even if it was free.
