Good, but only in airplane mode
This game has a simple to learn and fun combat system, witty humor, and doesn’t take forever to progress through (at least first half, getting max all classes will, but I’m a completionist). Losses will slow you, but not severely. There are a few big issues however. Firstly, the grindstone mechanic is very tedious and to an extent throttles progression (not as severely as gold costs for revive second game though.) another issue is the paradox login seems to glitch after your first play, which makes it impossible to load if you start it online thereafter. However, if you load in airplane mode, then you can turn online back immediately after no problem or play offline. Ironically the second one is online only. A lot of people likely quit outright without knowing this workaround. I strongly suggest you patch it, the third issue is sliding spites on occasion and it’s not quite optimized for various screen sizes yet. These bugs however are surely fixable, which if done, would certainly give me reason to rate it higher. But I can’t give 4 or 5 rating to a game that’s good, but only works after you fiddle with settings. I may have the patience for that, but others won’t. Fix that, and I’ll rate it higher.

Worthless.
Old game with fabled greatness, to bad it struggles to launch. I want my money back.
