Blades of Brim 9+

This game has got me hooked on to it for the last few days, already on level 22, but something always bothers when I go to my equipment. I can’t help but notice that each hero has it’s own place, and usually the portals in game can lead you to each place, but some don’t. That makes me more annoyed than it should, but please add an alien world for Lilith or an underwater one for atlas. Or you could add a fire hero for the underworld portal, that bothers me too.

(Edit) Level 25 now: The shattered library and underworld have elemental wizards so adding more wizard types like an ice one that you have to dodge ice balls that freeze you from or a one levitating on a cloud that strikes lightning down at you would be super cool. More suggestions are, a swamp wizard that pulls the ground below you down with mud, that would be AMAZING, and maybe a teleporting stealth one that’s like a master sensei or something, it’s still wizard-y and in the theme of twilight peaks so I think it would work.

You know that old cliche about sports fans yelling at the TV whenever the referee makes a call they don’t like? Well, get ready to do a lot of that if you download this game.

Blades of Brim is Sybo’s attempt to mix an endless runner game, a genre they’ve already become famous for with Subway Surfers, with elements of a dungeon crawler, complete with enchanted weapons and faceless ogres. The idea is appealing and the gameplay is fun. But the real problem is that they can’t seamlessly combine the dodging obstacles with the combat aspect. For example, in the game you’ll see a thug to your left and swipe that direction to kill it. Easy enough, until you realize that particular thug was standing in front of a bottomless pit. You couldn’t have known because the thug was completely blocking it. You don’t have time to dodge it; you fall in and die instantly. That’s how about half of your games will end. What’s more, the swords can offer some interesting and sometimes kind of helpful passives, but they don’t really do anything game-changing or useful. They’re mostly just aesthetic.

Honestly, the game would be ten times better if there were an occasional life-up power up to help alleviate the damage and make taking damage from enemies less dangerous so players can pay more attention to the bottomless pits. But until then, there are better endless runners on the market.

So, love the game, one issue I hope developers may pay attention to, is how silly it is that epic weapons with certain elemental effects like lightning, stone, ice, knock back enemies that would usually be killed in one hit; like the normal goons and flappers - and they get petrified, iced, or shocked but remain as an obstacle that if you run into them without attacking a second time, will damage you! Ridiculous when you're swinging the Shard of the Thunderlord, a big sword, and it electrifies/stuns an enemy that a common-type sword, and almost every lesser weapon in the game, would kill in one hit. This really takes away from the motivation to buy certain elemental epic weapons or to bother upgrading them.

In a quest where the objective is to eliminate an amount of enemies, it's very hard to do with the Shard of the Thunderlord, since you haven't actually killed a great deal of them with one hit when almost any other weapon would. It seems like if this feature is intentional, it takes away from the epicness and functionality of epic weapons and gives preference to elements like arcane and fire... please fix this.
