Child of Hope

A classic RPG but very short. I completed the game in under 7 hours. I'm a slow player and I spent ages searching the world map for areas I might have missed. The character portraits are nicely done. The dungeons are extensive with lots of goodies to find. Plenty of side quests and a journal to keep track of what you're supposed to be doing. I was disappointed that I could only find 7 out of 8 Divine Shards, so I failed a major side quest. Enjoyable game.

This is a rather boring game. The usual plot about saving....yadda..yadda...yadda Going from one dungeon to the next to reach the final big bad boss. With each new dungeon you get (if you find/can buy them) new equipment. In a nutshel this is shovelware. Even some of the dungeons are looking like I've played them in other games before. Nope, even if on sale I would not recommend this.

CONS -Gameplay is boring, no replayability, level of difficulty is too easy, boring enemies you can win literally by continuously attacking -Some elements were not utilised at all, e.g. special attacks against vampires, the gypsy ring promises double EXP but doesn't work -The story had potential but ultimately proves too derivative PROS +Relaxing soundtrack, not too repetitive as usual +Good character design +Sidequests were all fun, sometimes even better than the main quests +Not lengthy dialogues
