Skautfold: Knight's End

Let's be honest, you are only reading reviews to see if this game measure up to previous installments of the saga. Going to save you some trouble and answer this with a resounding YES, IT DOES. The atmosphere and sound is faithful to what we've been used to so far and, speaking of things to get used to, this game also come in a different "flavor" as we get to play with a more classical RPG style. This time, time bars and a "rock, scissor, paper" style of attack and defense are the bread and butter of the combat system and it's pretty fun once you get used to I'm not going to waste your time anymore as I'm sure the only reason you are even considering this game is beacuse you are a fan of the franchise and have played the other games all this thanks to steam bloody algorythm. Buy the game and see how the story finally end

Good so far. Interesting spin on a sort of time-based turn based battle system. Very moody atmosphere, very detailed enemies, and lots of different kinds. Fun sort of metroidvania element to world navigation. Developer puts out patches very quickly.

Knights End - The final part of the Skautfold Series is finally here! Yet again bringing a new style of game play this one features A Timeline based Rpg system while incorporating The Guard System from previous games, The Result fast paced unique combat which like usual takes a while to learn but as soon as perfected Is really fun to play. Lots of different types of enemies keep it interesting with bosses featuring different mechanics which put a spin on what you're normally used to. Now The game is in early access but Is patched extremely frequently and the Dev welcomes feedback and Fixes bugs as soon as they're reported. I'll keep updating the review the more the game is patched but for now I'd recommend it for the combat alone.

I played all the previous Skautfold games and was really looking forward to the conclusion. I always thought they were scoped reasonably and didn't punch above their weight, but I think this game underestimated just how much work having clear UI feedback and systems turn-based menu combat requires. The QTE minigames aren't precise, the numbers are completely out of whack balance-wise and there isn't much going on to reward exploration or make you look forward to the next plot beat. It's a real shame and I still recommend all the previous games. Looking forward to what the developer does in the future.

Frankly, i liked the previous four games of the series, but this one combat system ain't for me. Up until now, every combat system in each game was action oriented, but suddenly it's a turn based jprg paper/rock/scissor. Shame it's the last of the serie and thus not skippable.

Scoutfold really likes testing different play styles I'll give him that. This time its turn based with a little pinch of his namely some qtes. This one has metroidvania elements of exploration as well. Its got solid gameplay from my point especially for a turn based game. Requires a bit of polish on those qtes but its been updated frequently so no worries there. I really recommend this and all the Scautfold games. They are severely underrated for the story and atmosphere they throw you in.

worse than its predecessors but still worth the 5 bux on steam sale

Its pretty good enjoyed l really cant add anything new that hasent been said in the other reviews The looking forward to the new series

Can't choose to die at the very beginning of the game anymore, gotta request a refund.
