Very slow paced, for a game in this genre. You're slow, leveling is slow, enemies are slow, it's just a lethargic game all around. The trailer portions that show gameplay are most certainly x2 speed. I suspect that it is heavily optimized to controller play. I say this because a TON of the (slow) abilities are 'in the direction you are facing' based, but mouse/keyboard navigation is clunky - especially in the …

A fun and well-made survivor-like that sticks closely to the usual formula. Combat is fast and enjoyable and the building mechanic adds a nice twist, even if characters/survivors and builds start to feel similar over time. It can get repetitive but the core gameplay is solid and entertaining. Worth playing, just don’t expect anything groundbreaking. 🎚️ Difficulty 🔲 My grandma could play it 🔲 Easy ☑️ Normal 🔲 …

Achilles: Survivor turned out to be a solid addition to the genre. The graphics are great, and the gameplay feels engaging and well balanced throughout. You’ll face waves of enemies, experiment with a fair variety of survivors and abilities, and even manage tower defense mechanics — which ended up being one of the best parts of the experience for me. After around 41 hours, I managed to complete all achievements …

Basically its a solid game to start of with the pros. The visuals are one of the best the genre has to offer. And the troja/ ancient greek myth setting is also fine and works quite well for this type of game. I faced no real bugs, you have translations everything is there. But the gameplay and progression are kind of elusive which is my introduction to the way more present cons. There are so many chars and classes …

A good game with interesting ideas and replayable to some extent, but too short and too shallow. Many aspects could have been better. This is one of a very few "survivor" games that comes with realistic 3D graphics - my real favour. But the main characters only run, with no attacking action, just weapons flying around. Now we have only 4 unique maps, most look irrelevant to what they are called (like "cultists' …

60 of 350 · most liked firstAlright let’s try this again…. I get why the Colts did this given the lack of options, but some of the discourse around the market for Jones is confusing to me given the Achilles injury. Cousins took forever to get back to normal—Jones is younger, but athleticism is a big part of his game.

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Conceptually interesting. Being able to build towers that help in defending against the many enemies which also provide buffs. That, paired with the type of game itself and it could've been good. Sadly, each run plays out the same. You roam the map, looking for iron, build towers and fight of the waves. This is, of course, something that can be said to similar games like vampire survivors, but in games like these there are many upgrades that alter the game. The way you play, the way it goes.…

neutral · AI labelView post →This game has some good points and bad points. The good, and what drew me to the game, was the experiment with having buildings. It's pretty good, and certainly differentiates itself from the crowd of roguelikes. However, there's the bad, and it's significant. The devs have a flawed view at game design. Of particular note is your rift closure upgrades for your powers. They come with a good thing, and a bad thing. X gets better, but Y gets worse. Why? Why punish people for an upgrade? Does it…
