You know, there were a lot of thumbs-down for this game, but it’s actually a very fun game…if you can stay alive. It’s extremely hard, even in the first level of play.

game is buggy, keeps on crashing on level 3 and can’t save game. Pointless to play after this unless the developer fixes this

The game has potential, but in its current state, it’s no good. On the second level, the dragon takes WAY too long to kill, and it’s not as if it’s a “fun” battle. On the third level, fireball-casting enemies do insane damage, made all the more annoying since you have to stop moving in order to cast a spell.

Worst of all, three times (all on the third level), the game crashed back to the desktop in mid-game. Uninstalled.

I have often wondered what the reason is for the “SomeCompany” name that GAOTD uses for some games. I think the only people able to truly say what “Some Company” is and the reason for that name being used, is the GAOTD team.

My own personal suspicion is that maybe someone who participates on the GAOTD team is also the developer of those games and maybe uses the SomeCompany name so that any opinions, votes etc, will be unbiased. If this is any part of the reason for the usage of Some Company however it’s backfired in the opposite (negative) direction.

I noticed when the game loaded on my Vista machine, that it was made with GameStudio…so far that was the only thing I saw regarding its origin

Nice try, there is plenty of arcade but no RPG. Give me character creation, defensive points in all levels, like in level one, because run run run is no fun. A help file would be good to describe your perks in detail and well tips on game play would help, transparent walls. Do you get where I’m going. Don’t give up!

“Some Company” = Don’t download because it will either have problems working, missing common things like shortcuts, incompatible with ATI &/or nVidia video cards, cause major problems with your system, or a combination of all mentioned.

“Some Company” needs to learn “some remedial programming”.

Thanks anyway GGotD, but you guys really need to drop CCCP Games from your list of companies to provide this excellent service to. It ultimately makes this site look bad, which we definitely don’t want.

Game would have been so much better with tooltips (holding mouse over inventory items did not explain what they were, or display enemy names, health, anything).

The game seems solid, the interface could use a lot of work.

Meh.

I prefer Fate, but thanks for the freebie.

Don’t bother with this game… It’s just not worth it. Not overly complex, the graphics are adequate (but not good), the isometric view would be okay if you could have some basic control (other than zoom in and out) like most games have had that use this sort of view for years… The controls are counter-intuitive, the instructions/help text sucks, and the difficulty is just stupid… There’s no guidance or direction and no real method of being able to combat the hoard charging you basically non-stop other than the magic that doesn’t replenish anywhere near fast enough to allow you to last more than brief fleeting moments at a time… *yawn* Don’t waste your time.
