Might & Magic X - Legacy

Top Pro

Hardcore gameplay that requires planning

Players need to design their team and micro manage their equipment in order to progress successfully in game. Food is need to even be able to rest, which means purchasing goods and managing them is a key part to the gameplay. See More

Top Con

UPlay

As one would expect no less from Ubisoft and their horrible UPlay DRM, many paying players have been locked out of their game experiencing crashes upon startup. See More

Steam Rating:Mixed

Top Pro

Old school turn based fantasy strategy

Harkening back to the series roots, Might & Magic X is a turn based strategy game set in the fantasy world of Might & Magic. Players are only allowed very rigid movements of forward, left, right and back while trying to traverse a set path that also only transitions to those directions. See More

Top Pro

No prior knowledge of series necessary

Might & Magic X requires no previous knowledge of the series and is a stand alone story. Players new to the series will find everything they need to know about the game while playing. See More

Legend of Grimrock

Top Pro

Lots of interesting and varied puzzles

There are many elements in game that require much puzzle solving through the use of hidden switches, locked doors, etc. See More

Top Con

Enemy AI can be easily exploited

Basically it is easier to run up to enemies hit them and then run away waiting for the cool down to expire than planning out tactics for each enemy. See More

Steam Rating:Very Positive

Top Pro

Tile based combat

Much like tradition dungeon crawlers the combat is tile based where in each move is one tile at a time, just as an enemies. This makes for a good way to plan ahead of time by counting how many moves it takes to get to certain point or how many hits to kill an enemy. See More

Etrian Odyssey IV

score 1 · Answer 4

The Quest

Top Pro

Open-ended

Players are able to go where they want in game, though there is a storyline if players do want to follow stricter guidelines. See More

Top Con

Pocket PC origins still show

A game originally designed for Pocket PCs, and it shows in the graphics. Very dated looking. See More

Top Pro

4 towns to explore along with expansive wilderness sections

There is a fair bit to see in the game including 4 towns to explore, but it is the vast open wildernesses in the game that show how large the title actually is. See More
