    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pretty interesting game, with very good visuals and sounds, even by 2016 standards. The controls are a little finicky, especially at the start it's really frustrating to get a grip on the fighting, but it gets easier after around level 10 when you've got a hang of the character and fighting styles of enemies. The boss battles are HAARRRDD. Or rather, really really painful on my left thumb, which has to keep the Reaper moving while also spinning in a death-swirl.

    The only really sad part is that once you complete the final mission (Killing the Demon God), there seems to be nothing new to do, just fight mindless critters.

    Она мне просто нравится. Лучший таймкиллер. Бои просто приносят удовольствие. Сюжет простой, но нужен ли он в такой игре? Боевка отличная, но мне не нравится задумка авто-ударов - больно казуально. Я все сказал.

    Reaper’s main adventure can use a little more meat, but cutting up enemies should keep you busy regardless.

    The last Hexage title is unexpectedly original. It is able not only to decline precisely and clean scrolling beat em up dynamics, but to mix them with a (unexpected) sprinkling of shoot'em up and a very simple but solid GDR structure. Absolutely worth the free try since level 10.

    Reaper - Tale of a Pale Swordsman does nothing revolutionary, but it does everything pretty well. It's a simple, fun, good looking action RPG, full of quests, weapons and items for you to unlock.
