Out of a Possible Zero, January 2, 2011by AmberShards (The Gothic South) Whenever I play a game that makes big-time typos (roll playing) and tells me I have scored more than it was possible to score, I know that I'm in for a bad time. Such is the case with Necron's Keep, another game in the long list of games that have never graced a beta-tester's fingertips. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No Remove vote | Add a comment
Comments on this reviewPrevious | << 1 >> | Next Callust, January 2, 2011 - Reply To be fair, "roll playing" is a term some people have used for combat-intensive games that focus on stats, combat mechanics, and/or rolling dice (often a lot) over characterization and plot. From the sounds of it, with the emphasis on showing the actual statistics of combat rather than descriptions, roll playing may well be the correct term here. Horace Torys, January 24, 2011 - Reply It's "ROLE playing." "Roll" is a typo. Though, perhaps since the actual dice rolls are described, it should be called "roll playing." Markoff23, January 3, 2011 - Reply how do you even get past the first enemy? I mean a treant vs. a level 1 char... silly AmberShards, January 4, 2011 - Reply I know. I couldn't. I ran a lot and eventually found the castle. Wade Clarke, January 4, 2011 - Reply Ignore the treant for now. You should try to enter the castle - look around in the gate location. This game obviously has a lot of detail and work in it, especially for a first game, and the latest build already has much better Help and some other tweaks in response to comments from myself, and from Amber's review. But the game is still pretty raw (it's especially low on synonyms) and will prove too trying for most players at this time. If the author keeps up the current revision pace, though, it could become a lot more playable pretty quickly. |
