Absolutely insane value for the price.... Seriously we gamers are spoiled by devs like this. You know a game is good when it feels like an onion that each layer you peel back is just better and better. I PRAY these devs keep going and doing what they are doing. What a gem.

Singleplayer Runescape that i HAVE been waiting for Tbh! In Runescape, you are playing always to GET rich and best player there is, but in this game, you are just chilling around focuing on the game and enjoying it. I love runescape dont get me wrong, but this game has the unique feeling that that i have to better than my friends and the way to get to get better is to grind. I love the no trading to other players, and NEVER EVER add it please, this game makes the unique grind touch!

As close as you can get to experiencing RuneScape again for the first time. Only 5 hours in but can't wait to keep exploring this game. The writing for the quests has made me laugh a few times. So glad I stumbled across a YouTube video about this game. Easy buy if you like OSRS

If you google which Runescape is better, old Runescape or new Runescape, the answer is The Black Grimoire: Cursebreaker

Do you want a single player RuneScape? Do you want to not have to deal with increasing monthly memberships? Do you want to have a game to relax to at the end of the day? Do you want to play at your own pace? Do you want to feel like a kid again? Well, you got that all here. Is it a RuneScape clone? Yes and no. Yes, as in it has a familiarity to it enough that I felt comfortable with the UI and combat from the beginning. No, as in it has several unique characteristics. The quests feel more personal and you actually feel like a hero of sorts (you know, unlike when you pass 500 people with the same quest item from a quest you just completed), there are unique skill traits, there is fast traveling (horse rental), etc. I don’t think I’m being hasty in reviewing this game so early. The atmosphere, music, and gameplay is exactly what I have been looking for for YEARS. Several times I considered developing my own game just for the sake of creating a game like this so that I could finally play what I’ve wanted. Thankfully I didn’t, because I would have been outperformed by this game. You have skills to train, towns to travel between, an awesome story, RuneScape-esque quests (sometimes fetchy, but also quirky), and freedom to build your character as you wish. Is it worth the cost now? I would say so. I do hope the developers continue on their development roadmap, because the potential is there. What potential do I see? More skills, quests, events, etc. Edit: After ~60 hours of playtime, I stand by what I reviewed earlier. The game is exactly what I've been looking for and has been a blast to play. It feels like playing RuneScape from back in the day. Pros: - Horsy is the greatest addition to a game like this. So awesome - The world is awesome. I love how lively the cities and towns feel, the quests are interesting, the environments look good and don't feel forced. - Advancement is realistically achievable. In other words, you aren't going to spend 100+ hours grinding to get a your next goal. Maxing a skill to 50 will take several hours for some skills, but it is not ridiculous. - Each new upgrade feels like an achievement! Everything feels earned and is not handed to you. - Everything encourages you to explore. Don't know where the glowing willow tree is? Find it! There is no wiki yet, enjoy it. - (Again) It is like RuneScape, so if you like RuneScape then you will like this game. Cons: - Inventory management is difficult. Storing items in an organized manner is inconvenient, so I end up leaving it a mess. - There are minor glitches: (1) Seldom my character gets stuck somewhere, but you can teleport out (2) Buildings you can't go into, because you clip through the stairs or are unable to climb something or the character doesn't recognize the door. (3) Quest logs are sometimes wrong. For example, one particular quest says you can buy an iron axe from a nearby vendor, but the vendor does not sell the axe. - There can be a lot of grinding between major quest events with little to do to bridge that gap (I think the devs are working on this though). Overall this game is a 9/10 for me. I love the direction it is going.
