Recensioni di The Last Spell

This game is stupidly difficult and poorly made, commands are clunky and unforgiving. I love strategy games and usually i play them a lot. I've played this for 186 hours and there are really interesting things in this game, but even for normal difficulty it is unfair in many levels. The combinations of perks and stats are random, a good character is rare and without it you better restart a run. Some bosses have 4 phases with so many gimicks that make them really nonsense, the litch one lasted almost 2 hours of fight just to discover that it teleports and stuns and oneshots characters while recovering his 160k hp on NORMAL difficulty. Every character can hold 2 sets of weapons and one weapon for each hand, making insane numbers of combinations, sadly those are also random and are good based on the perks they get which means you need also to find a good character AND a good set of weapons. Every run has omens that make also insane number of combinations. Last but not least not all the weapons are good and not all the perks or omens are good, which means you gonna have a bad time just for trying some stuff. (for example you have a omen to make more damage on ballistas, too bad they shoot randmly and do stupid damage anyway) It angers me and saddens me, there's really good potential in this game and i hate being so critic on some really passionate and interesting work but it needs some fix, i'm not against difficult games, but this is out of scale personally

Per quanto mi sforzi a farmelo piacere, non ci riesco. Le abilità dei personaggi mi sembrano troppo poche e non ben spiegate

Great game all aorund, extremely unforgiving (took me a good 18hrs to get trought the second level)

I used to love turn-based games like age of wonders II. Especially the defensive part. The biggest problem was that enemies took their turn individually and it could take hours for a single battle. This game concentrate on the combat part and fixes it. Enemies act all togheter as a wave, much more efficient. I have great hopes for the finished game.

The Last Spell è un'esperienza tutta da sudare. Il gioco è uno strategico a turni, con ondate di mostri che vogliono spazzare via quello che resta della nostra città. Un gioco non semplice e non per tutti, ma dotato di una bella profondità e di tanto stile. https://youtu.be/hNybA-4_yYs

I have a bad internet and i mainly play offline . I played the demo too. i have around 40 hours of this game under my belt. The biggest problem of this game is the meta progression . That sucks , there was no need for it and i hate it . the problem is that it is absolutely needed in order not to win but to simply PLAY the game . I'll explain better : - In the game there are 2 meta progression systems . - black goddes that lets you unlock stuff by feeding off souls (a rsourcethat you obtain by killing bad guys) - white goddess that lets you unlock stuff if you do some sort of achievements ( ex : deal 500dmg in one hit) the problem is that many of those rewards are NEEDED : - Yuo NEED more mana - you NEED more action points - you NEED better odds of finding rare stuff (i still don't get why there isn't a way to upgrade you gear , you can only hope to find better stuff , and unlike other rougue-likes in this game you need to spend resources to buy stuff as the game gives you too little for free - you NEED (absolutely) ballistas , catapults , whatctowers and traps , and better walls and you don't get to play with these during your firsts 3-5 runs at least - you NEED the Seer and all of the other buildings Having said that , the gameplay loop is FUN . The weapons are FUN. (maybe too many ) The abilities are FUN. The build that you can do are FUN. The massive damage numbers are FUN. AOEs are FUN. what could be better ? -Enemy design and AI , and wawes There are around 10 different enemies in the game some of them are just bullshit , some of them are redondant , and the vast majority of them are meh . the problem is that they all do scale in resistance and HP during the run and even the stupidest enemies become a treath. instead of a distraction if that is supposed to be the other way around then it's not working properly. dodge is an annoying mechanich. the game tries to kill you with minibosses , those are the real treath and the give you many of them to handle at the same time , it feels like a big " fuck you , we don't want you to win and so this is a spike that you can't deal with properly". in this game i would like to be crushed by numbers more than quality of mobs . So i can decide if it's worth spending that extra mana this round killing 10 enemies or if it's better to take an hit and save that AOE for later . So i can actually be left with no mana during the fight . wider waves please , not taller ones . -Fog mechanic is stupid Enemies will spawn closer and closer to your walls during the run . this forces you to buy the seer building . It FORCES you . I'll say that again . It FORCES you to buy the Seer. plus you don't get to know which enemies will spawn and you can' play accordingly (losing a big piece of the puzzle that has the potential to be really engaging) , plus it feels like another big "fuck you , here it is something that you can't handle properly . -Workers mechanich is meh.. Openings are meh workers are an important resource that you get during the game you use them during the production phase to get gold and materials and gear. you don't use them during the fight which is a thingthat i would really love . at max you get to have 18 workers , you need to use 3 for the seer and at least 3-6 for the gold mines , plus at least 3-6 for the scavengers . you can then se the rest to make gear. you need to do this because buildings don't do enough on their own. but since you have no other use for those workers you simply use all of them in the most efficient and BORING way ( you waste them if you don't use thems as the game won't let you save them for the next day , another missed opportunity if you ask me ) the game forces you bit for what regards your building order too, an your first actions during the producion phase . -hero's Mana and HP Mana and HP does not refill fully every day , that it's a nice thing that should make you take though decision in order to save these resources for when they are more needed , which could be the next day oe the next round . SHOULD. It's not working properly right now and you don't get to have that feeling of shortage. you don't because : 1) you don' know what it's coming next 2) most of the time you have no choice 4) the game gives you plenty of ways to replenish thos resources with little investment

molto difficile, ogni run è una storia a sé, bellissimo

Premessa le ore di gioco nel momento di questa recensione non sono vere , in quanto ho giocato con un altro profilo in passato. Il gioco è veramente bello , purtroppo manca la traduzione in italiano , lal cosa veramente positiva oltre il gameplay sono gli sviluppatori che rilasciano aggiornamenti continui , acquistatelo senza pensarci due volte!

Gioco incredibile sotto ogni aspetto. In breve il gameplay è il seguente: Fase gestionale di preparazione con numerose sfaccettature e scelte che strizza l'occhio ai giochi da tavolo con posizionamento lavoratori. Dopodichè fase notte: orde. Avrete a disposizione solamente gli eroi (partirete con solo 3 gestibili) e le loro skill, da passive uniche appartenenti al personaggio, alle armi ed equip che cambieranno il vero e proprio core gameplay dell'eroe, con nuovi moveset, danni, skills. Ogni notte successiva sarà più tosta e voi dovrete prepararvi al meglio, reclutando nuovi eroi, comprando nuovi equip, costruendo nuovi edifici e nuove difese (che verranno più in avanti sbriciolate dai nemici più grossi). Questo si ripeterà finchè i vostri maghi posti a centrocittà non finiranno il rituale (ci impiegheranno X notti a farlo). Difficoltà che cresce in modo violento, ma che si attenua con costanza: essendo un gioco roguelite, ogni fine run (ed anche DURANTE la run) potrete sbloccare potenziamenti, alcuni solo estetici, altri utili, molti utilissimi e "fucking op". Modalità di combat strategica che consente numerosi approcci ed a volte, causa eroi che vi ritrovate, vi costringerà ad alcune scelte anche lontane da ciò che avreste voluto. OST curata dal signor Remi (chi non lo conosce vada a sentirsi i The Algorithm ed i Boucle Infinie) che rappresenta fedelmente l'atmosfera cupa ma anche distruttiva e violenta del gioco. Lo consiglio, anzi, straconsiglio.

Questo gioco è uno dei migliori del suo genere, lo aspettavo da molto e devo dire che, pur essendo un gioco ad accesso anticipato, è giocabilissimo e fino ad adesso non ho rilevato bug o problemi. Per tutti gli amanti degli strategici a turni hardcore, questo è un must have. Edit: - Ad ogni aggiornamento diventa sempre più godibile, ottimo lavoro.
