8 of 15While I agree with the many positive aspects of this game in reviews made by others, I must say that, compared to other similar games, this one forced extremely long battle sequences that gave me headaches. There were also fewer opportunities to buy critical potions, making survival and offensive tactics much more difficult. I’ll stick with Avernum and Exiled Kingdoms, which, to me, are more balanced and enjoyable.
One of the best written, most comprehensive RPGs out there!
My biggest gripe is that this game's difficulty escalates much faster than Avadon 1, and this difficulty isn't just due to mechanical rebalancing. Nonetheless, it makes people try different strategies (such as hit-and-run) but it can still be pretty frustrating when cannon-fodder enemies have about as much health as bosses do. I would also say that currently, I enjoyed Avadon 1's plot better (in particular, the first time you enter the Corruption kinda lost my attention for awhile), but once you get halfway-through, it starts to get interesting again. Having finished the game now, I am disappointed to some extent by the ending. There are multiple ways to end the game, but the easiest way to end it was anti-climatic. Nonetheless, still a good plot and if you are planning on playing Avadon 3, you should definitely play this one first for plot reasons.
Spiderweb software is fun - take your time and enjoy the ride
Spiderweb Software makes the best story driven RPG's that I ever played. If you like old school fantasy RPG's like Baldur's Gate, Icewind Dale, Avernum, and Dungeons of Chaos on iOS, then this game is for you!
Having played a few of the old Spiderweb shareware games on Mac years ago and with great respect for their indie efforts, I bought this one for a long trip where I would have a lot of down time. The whole world is quite impressive, with interesting choices and political alignments. However, after playing many hours, maybe 60% through, it increasingly felt like a chore to schlep my characters around, keep track of their goals and rearrange and sell their secondhand gear/loot. I’m wondering if the earlier games were tighter, or perhaps when I was younger I enjoyed roleplaying as a human resources, travel logistics, and ebay specialist. But not anymore - I got bored. I have definitely had good experiences with other big sandbox and campaign games, but unfortunately did not feel like completing this one. It wasn’t an active decision; I just decided to play something else one day and never went back.
I'm half a day's absorbed play in and have obviously barely started. Great, deep, engaging story and good combat etc. Love it. I really appreciate that Spiderweb has brought their wonderful games to iPad without IAP or anything, just a pure, good, well-balanced game. I wish I had more stars to give.
