Alright. Pathfinder: Gallowspire Survivors is what I'd describe as a meh out of 10 type of game. It doesn't do anything specifically poorly, but it doesn't really excel at anything either. It's fun for a minute but loses its charm quickly. With that in mind, let's dive in: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3275681916 This game is really two things: a Pathfinder licensed game and a VS-like (auto battler). If the devs removed the word Pathfinder from the title, you would absolutely never know it was a licensed game in the Pathfinder IP. There's nothing in the game that truly makes it Pathfinder. It IS functionally a Survivors game, but it does nothing noteworthy at all to set itself apart from other entries in any way shape or form. In fact, I'd say the cool things that you'd come to expect from a Survivors title are absent here. For example, while in the arenas, and as you upgrade find and your skills, there are only buffs to said skills available. There is no tiered system wherein you earn special abilities when reaching certain upgrade levels. It's just straight buffs all the time. After you leave a run, you can upgrade your character, artifacts found in your runs, potions, and your bestiary. This latter part is probably the only unique thing about the game, inasmuch as you can use gold to give yourself nominal buffs for fighting or defending against certain enemies by upgrading that enemy type in your bestiary. The same is true for upgrading artifacts. Upgrading your character is a matter of gaining points to upgrade your classic d20 ability scores. Which you will be min/maxing in this game. Potion upgrades are the only thing in the game where it can change what the item or ability actually does. For example, you can upgrade a health potion to also offer a regenerate property. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3275926797 While in runs, the lack of any special upgrade tiers is kind of uninspiring. Imagine, if you will, that you're playing through a tabletop campaign, and you find a +1 longsword. Cool. It's definitely better than your plain old non-magical sword. But is it as cool as finding a +1 Luckblade, Flaming Sword, an Intelligent +1 Sword, etc...? No, no it's not. It's an upgrade but doesn't offer any sort of wow factor. And to me, that lack of wow factor is pervasive in this game. The combat is fun enough, but it always feels a bit lackluster. And the visuals do this no favors. They look okay, but again, there's no 'holy s%^&' moments. It's just stuff happening on screen. Enemies aren't particularly noteworthy except bosses and bosses don't really feature any kind of interesting move set. If anything, they tend to err on the side of annoyingly spamming one ability. The audio tracks are okay, but not particularly memorable either. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3275681895 Is this an actual bad game? No. It is competent in everything it does. But the Pathfinder is notably absent and it lacks any gameplay features that really have me wanting to keep coming back to this over and over. Why keep playing this when I can literally fire up Vampire Survivors, which costs less, is innovative, and adds cool new things to the base game on the regular? This game's lackluster nature is inarguably its greatest flaw. There are a lot of missed opportunities with this title. Is it worth a look? With a hefty discount, sure. But don't have high expectations with this game. I'll be giving this a positive rating since there's no neutral rating and it's not a bad game, but holy meh!

Good enough for $4 for 9 hours of gameplay that I'll play more of. I *am* already worried about longevity and build variety, however. The amount of upgrades and metaprogression is great, and there's enough goals that the fact that most of the upgrades are "just" % stat boosts is fine. There's even cool Pathfinder monster art I recognize as a 2e player, though I can't speak to the story besides broad strokes "makes sense enough". But there's basically two types of attacks - spells (of 3 elements, which do encourage synergies) and weapons, and based on playing just Fighter and Wizard I feel like there's not much left over for the Rogue to be unique -- I did one run with them and found out they use almost all the same weapons as Fighter besides Dagger and maybe something else. There's not much Martial build synergy besides "build damage" or "build defenses", so you just pick whichever attacks you like the most or do the most damage -- I haven't seen weapon+weapon specializations yet after starting the third map, though for practical purposes "melee" vs "ranged" is a build choice as you grind your Fighter right next to mobs or stay away (preliminary results is Ranged is just better and Great Axe + Crossbow + Bow + Chakram might be the braindead pick every run). You also only level 1.5 characters per run (your main character and partially your companion), so one character is inevitably left to rot until you do low level runs as the maps' difficulty scales fairly fast compared to other Survivors games; there's an exponential amount of ranged enemies compared to 20 Minutes to Dawn. There's still 4 difficulties and 2 maps for me to beat, as well as tons of cards (permanent stat upgrades for all characters) to find. The characters scale all the way to lv20 while I'm level 5 at this point in the review.

Despite earlier negative reviews, this game is now patched and a blast. The initial reviews kept me away, but a recent patch with positive reviews, in addition to a nice sale, enabled me to purchase this. Overall, the game is a blast. Nothing groundbreaking, but the visuals and performance are great on a handheld and you have a constant sense of progression. Through each run you have a clear upgrade/improvement of your character, so you never feel as though you are wasting your time. The UX when upgrading your character(s) between matches could use some improvement, and that is its biggest determent, but other than that I had no issues. Highly recommend for fans of the genre.
