Review
It is a good entry-level game to get acquainted with open world, adventure games and RPG games. The mechanisms are well constructed and allow you to play smoothly. Because of the many different tiles, the world you discover is different every time. The ability to add different bosses and scenarios is also a clever idea. This makes the replayability high and you can decide for yourself at what level you want to play.
The rules are accessible and the way the battles are fought is well put together and play smoothly.
The quality of the game is good, components feel solid and design is well put together.
In short; Are you looking for a game to get acquainted with the RPG, and/or the open-world mechanism, this is one to look at.
Fair is fair; we are not the biggest fans of the RPG mechanism and this is therefore a game that will not come up here much more often, but that says something about our preferences
