June 2021

Oh man, yeah. I don't know how I missed that this game was on Steam, but I put so many hours into it on my phone years ago that I had to uninstall it because it was ruining me. No mobile game since has held my interest like this one--unfortunately not even the games released by the same developers. It's a simple game with pixel graphics (I usually hate that), but it's so addictive and actually somewhat deep once you get really far into it. At first, it'll feel like you're just clicking on things non-stop, but once the enemies get really tough, you'll have to dig into Battle Logs to see the flow of fights and choose your abilities accordingly, outfit your heroes in gear appropriate to the bosses you're fighting against, and consider party composition and formation, too. Except you don't actually fight the fights, you just set up your party and send them on their way to death or glory. I do wish they had made a little more consideration for PC when they ported this, though. The window is still small and requires scrolling when it would be great if I could drag the window vertically to resize and see all heroes and crafters at one glance. I understand the mobile limitations, but the PC doesn't have that. Still, I'm already feeling the twitch of addiction. Hope I can keep myself under control...
