I’ve been playing this series for a while now and I really enjoy it. Both of the first two games were great, so I figured I would give the third a go. The degree of difficulty is much higher than the first two, especially because I was not interested in making in-app purchases. Seemed like enemy difficulty increased periodically even after using hour glass to reduce boss levels. Anyways, I had completed 3 of the endings (hoping to acquire them all) but accidentally answered a question wrong with an encounter and died immediately, losing everything even though I had 7 life potions! Frustrating to say the least. Really liked this game, just be very careful to not die and to answer questions correctly or you will be very irritated with the results.Also, NPCs are a nice touch but there are a couple I never figured out what to do with. Not sure if this is the result of glitches/bugs but I was a little confused with a few NPCs (monkey vendor/powderpuff girls, robot refugees, old woman in slums, among others).Great game overall, going to start over and get to the fourth here soon!

I liked the first game way back in the day. ToF 2 steps things up in a lot of ways. I like the mechanics of 2 a lot. It’s straightforward, but added new challenges and ways to level up, and to advance- plus a lot more endings. I’ve been playing 3 for a couple days now and it’s a huge leap forward in the same way as 1 to 2. There are WAY more encounters, there are factions now, navigating the world is far less linear. This game is huge. It’s fairly annoying to navigate around though, because you have to tap through repetitive messages constantly when going room to room. But all in all I’m enjoying the game, and it seems like it will take a LONG time to play through it, which is exactly what I want from it.If you like a game that makes you grind, then this is well worth it. Be cautious, especially early on. Don’t spend real money on gold until you’re sure you know what the game is about, or you may be disappointed and angry. You can and will lose equipment. That’s always been a staple of the series. But if you keep that in mind, the writing is enjoyable and the whole series is satisfying.

Be careful at first, farm exp on the first stage (prison) without beating the final boss (Warden) until you're WAY overpowered and have a few life potions on hand. Then start playing for real.I learned my lesson early, when I decided to check out the zero dimension and died... losing a VIP Pass that was a random drop among other good stuff. After that I didn't move on from the prison until I was level 20 with a couple pieces of champion armor, flame tongue, 3k gold, slum unlocked (not entered), 3 life potions etc. ...which is right now.

Played the first 2 bought the bundle plan on trying the 4th after finishing this one. Be wary the game does have permadeath if you die you lose your items and start fresh gold stays run to run though. Stay in the prison as long as possible, visit the burning stake and mercy kill the prisoner once a day, you can get VIP passes for free, and do not kill the beast in the skull gate on floor 1 to obtain an ally. There’s really no reason to spend real dollars on the game after the initial purchase. If anything an excess of gold before your character is properly leveled tricks you into a false sense of confidence in your character and will lead you into an early grave.
