I've been playing Balrum for a few days now and I am having a great time. I just cannot seem to put it down. Saves are local based so if you're playing on multiple platforms, it's a good time as any to roll a different character and experience the wider game.

I've been getting myself into trouble running around the town during the night looking for homes in which the occupants are all asleep. I spend the night pillaging and the day time selling back to the owners! If only I could find the NPC that will enable me to pick locks! Turn based means turn based! If you died in combat, you're probably neglecting potions/items/trinkets/and a wealth of other materials and items in your possession.

This game is best leveraged when you consider target ranges, movement speeds, and how long your actions take. If you accidentally shoot someone with an arrow and were busy looting like I have been, you'll come across some single use 'forget crime' scrolls you can use to set things right. Also, saving frequently when in 'the world' helps.

Lastly.. DO NOT! DO NOT have 0% thirst and try moving a bunch of tiles (holding down or auto pathing). You will kill yourself really quick.

Wife's now playing alongside with me, great game, seriously try it out! The price is great for an all platformer! Installing on my Linux box, already have Mac and Windows done.
