Still playing in the beginning of the game. Similar to Untold (first one) in that you make various choices, fight enemies, equip gear, level up, and pick stats to level. Also, NO IAP. NO Gacha !!! Just a free demo and then purchase the whole game. Some major differences compared to the first. First of all, it is more turn based so you don’t just mash the button the whole time. Speed still matters for turn order though. Also, you’ll face multiple enemies at once this time around and they appear as an image on screen. Story wise, it picks up right where Untold leaves off but with a totally different character. There’s a matter of reputation with different factions now so you’ll have to take that into account when making choices. I’m really happy with it so far. And I can’t thank the developers enough for keeping it in portrait mode. It is a must for me. Oh, and I think it’s awesome that they provide a free demo to play through the first part of the game. It’s a great way to try it out to make sure you like it.I plan on playing this one like I did the first installment. I’m going to play it all the way through without any help and then play it a second time following the guide. Hopefully they have a great guide like they did with Untold. Go enjoy this game! It’s a free demo so you have nothing to lose.

The immersion of this mostly text based adventure is great. It is short for my taste, but there are many secrets to work out. There are multiple solutions to problems. For a minor spoiler: to get past the 1st part you need a team of 4 people to guard a caravan. You can hire mercenaries, get the militia to help, get knights to help, or find 4 on your own. I have been able to find 3 of the 4. I’m guessing the 4th was someone who didn’t want to go because my Charisma wasn’t high enough to convince. It doesn’t change much, just adds a footnote to the end stories. Based off my experience, if you want to wear most equipment, a strength of 5 is sufficient. Perception should be around 5 to hit really annoying enemies. Ranged weapons are a godsend. Especially when the strong enemy is behind a wall of 3 weaker ones. Just fire at back row. Front will do negligible damage, if any. After they are dealt with, swap to melee and enjoy. Also, the most valuable item you can find is the lock pick. It will open many doors (and chests) for you. I’m currently trying to figure out how to placate a demon. I’m sure it will take multiple tries to see what he wants. I had fish, forgot to bring dog meat. Looking forward to trying and failing before I hit the “help I’m stuck” button.

So at first this seemed very promising. It was a good story and your choices actually mattered. Then it comes time where the free story ends and you have to pay. Okay….I ended up buying the full game and I wish I hadn’t. I was severely disappointed at how it ended. Sitting here spending all this time making choices and planning, only to find that all the good and materials you collect at the end literally mean nothing. When it comes time for the final fight and choices, it legit was one of the worst endings there was. I had finally collected enough coin and such to actually make a difference, and then it goes into the final battle where you don’t have any warning or any hints about it being the last one. Then it comes and goes and you have all this script and writing. Instead of writing that all out, I would have actually enjoyed playing through it instead of reading about it. I would not recommend that you but the full game. It seriously isn’t worth it and will leave you disappointed.

When browsing through the App Store it’s hard to find a game that keeps you genuinely entertained and interested. Usually I download a game and delete it after a week. This game has made the nostalgia of the first come washing back over me while maintaining a unique presence of its own. I spent an hour sitting in the cold yesterday just playing it waiting for a friend to pick me up. The story is even more deep and intricate than the first, with an act 1, that if reveals anything about the rest of the game, will make you ever more excited to play for hours on end. I’m really happy with this game and am jubilated that the developers truly care to put the time in to make it an amazing second addition to the series.
