The Bounty V2 Reviews

As an RPG maker dev myself, I decided to give it a try. I discovered it on a facebook RpGmaker group, glad I did. at $4.99 I believe I got my moneys worth. This is a fun game, but think before you act. Or you could end up like me as a chicken lost in the lost woods. (It would make sense if you play it) Pro: Dungen crawler puzzles Con: It's not for everyone. you can't rush it, you gotta take your time, becuase if you mess up you gotta restart I will try for the hardcore no save achivement later, but for now, its see what I can do

An action r.p.g but not like you know it! I keep my eye on new indie games and enjoy all genres. Its always interesting to see the imagination that goes into games that come out of smaller companies. I had read about The Bounty online over a yera ago and to be honest had forgotten about it. A friend told me of this new fun r.p.g action game he was playing. It turned out it was the Bounty. The game has an interesting premise and through the 16-bit presentation and 90's storyline my interest was piqued. It looks and feels very much like many r.p.g's you might of played on the Super Nintendo or Megadrive growing up. Do not let this fool you as it did me though. Playing this like a normal game will get you into trouble. The Bounty is like a condensed r.p.g, take out the endless wandering and chatting that you would expect and add in hi-score chasing. There are traps to be solved that are genuinely very pleasing to solve. I have no shame in admitting i was stumped by the very first one. If you play it you might laugh at my stupidity. I think what they have achieved here is something new out of something old and its worth the price of entry. When you die, you die! I did and i'm looking forward to going back.

The Bounty is a rogue-like JRPG that is very challenging. In addition to typical JRPG style turn-based battles, there are tons of environmental challenges as well. And if you're not ready for what the game throws at you, you'll be dead quick. There are rare opportunities to save, but each time you die you learn more about the game and you're able to overcome the challenge and move forward. If you like a punishing and rewarding rogue-like, then this will be right up your alley!

The Bounty has to be one of the most unique games I've ever played. Myself coming from Nex Machina and Pacman 256. I needed another high scoring nostalgia type of game. And this is where the Bounty comes in. This is not your ordinary RPG game. It's a high scoring RPG. A humorous one at that. This is described as a Dragon Quest type of game. Which could be true but I've never played those. But this game reminds me of nes classics like Zelda, Final Fantasy and Uncle fester's quest(music wise). The music is really good in this game. Really captures the feel of the 8 bit era. The game is not super hard but challenging enough. The puzzles really challenge your common sense. I can even use a Dog whistle to signal a partner for my battle. Overall. It's a fun game. I recommend playing this especially for $4.99. It's really worth it.

The Bounty is a dungeon crawl game that can be played casually (just trying to get through the game) or competitively (hunting for high score with a lack of saving), it is made by an indy dev and lacks a certian polish but that adds to the bit-game feel. It has secrets, it has monsters, it has challenges. It can be rather diffucult and frustrating at times. Its game style is an RPG, it has basic line battle/JRPG battle system similar to FF and early JRPGs. Its a good game at a good price. You can repeat play and memorize most of the levels and secrets, it would be great to see randomized levels and challenges to give it more replayability. It would be good if there was a way to compare score against friends and other players
