Peaks of Yore at home:


Legitimately fantastic. Peaks of Yore + vibe of Lethal Company.
Demo is free, has achievements, has pretty much the whole damn game to be honest, I imagine full release will simply provide more levels to go through but this is enough for me for now, definitely difficult enough.

I honestly love it. I just absolutely love it.

Short and sweet, as opposed to more typical idlers (NGU why do you make me suffer so?) Will probably run you between 1 and 2 hours but I can imagine people going much faster if they know what they're doing.

Why is this free?

At the moment, this is a tentative 100% yes. When it works, when you aren't crashing and getting disconnected and experiencing fatal errors, this game is a blast. You have mimics and 173s and demons and creepy things and threats inside and outside and traps are universal which makes it really fun to outplay monsters.

However it crashes a lot. It's to the point where honestly I should rate it negatively but it is just so fun whilst it does work that I can't bring myself to do so.

I hope crashing gets addressed. I honestly love it more than Lethal.

This jobless one has played this game
To find the challenge much the same
Through fire and rain and poison swamp
Upon defeat, sounds out "womp womp"

I understand that an 88% chance of success does not mean I will necessarily succeed 88% of the time. However, I am failing basically every single time unless I fill every single slot with focus. If I do not fill every single slot with focus, I am legitimately failing the checks two out of three times. Clearly, luck is simply not on my side. As there is nothing I can actually do to change that, I choose to simply not play it any further.

If you are ok with RNG absolutely rawdogging you at every conceivable chance, maybe this is for you.

The sheer amount of ways one can approach the encounters here is crazy.

There are many ways that players can go about progressing through the levels and I am impressed.

In this game you will receive multiple varying paths through which you can tackle the challenges laid out before you, truly inspiring.

There are many different tools an individual is provided with both within the character's arsenal as well as the environment itself through which said individual is capable of accomplishing victory or conversely meet their untimely demise, very impressive.

The amount of fire that you can fire at the non fire to make it into fire is really hot.

Magic has never been so Fowl

The revolver mechanic is that little something extra that allows this game to stand out from its card roguelike brethren.

By no means challenging. If you play optimally you will easily find yourself with thousands of spare money at basically every point. But it is fun, and it is free. There are paid games by large studios that feel as though they are held together by duct tape and glue. Comparatively this game is quite sound.

Give it a shot (heh) . All that you'd be wasting is your time, and if not, hey, you've got yourself a neat little something to wile away a few hours on.
