    More side-scrolling hack and slash? hell yea, this is is pretty fun when playing with people especially with some friends over fighting over loot. I was a kid in the 90s, growing up with tmnt in time, dbl dragon, final fight, etc so this game brings back alot of memories of a time where all you have to do was eat play and sleep.

    This is a pretty good hack&slash game. The gameplay is really simple and intuitive. It is perfect for casual gamer that want to spend some good and short time hitting some monsters. About the 4 different characters: the combos are simple to do, no matter the one that you choose. Even if the AI is questionable, it is not really a big deal since you won't one hour or one hour and half eachThis is a pretty good hack&slash game. The gameplay is really simple and intuitive.

Even if the AI is questionable, it is not really a big deal since you won't one hour or one hour and half each time you are playing. The graphics are nice and the effects are totally adapted for that kind of game. It is a really good title that you must have in your steam games. (Xbox 360 controller required to enjoy the game).… Expand

    Just finished it last night and i can say it's trully amazing i hope that Sacred 3 will this much fun to. And i was just saying i want MORE of this i see someone writing about a dlc, when it appears on steam i'm so buying it.

Gameplay involves a bit of strategy you can block someJust finished it last night and i can say it's trully amazing i hope that Sacred 3 will this much fun to.

    Un gioco per nostalgici dei picchiaduro a scorrimento. Ricorda il glorioso Gollden Axe e un po anche gli arcade da bar di D&D. Consigliato visto il prezzo basso e la possibilita' di giocare in coop con gli amici e online.

    Very fun and addictive game. The action and combat is smooth and the gameplay is wellpaced. The UI is perfect, best played with a controller. Every character plays differently so multiple playthroughs are still fun. Well worth the cheap price!

    Folks I would first like to point out the price of this game. Roughly about 15 dollars. Next Look at the type, it is a side-scrolling brawler. For the price and getting a few friends together you cannot go wrong with this. Four classes with 4 acts with DLC coming to improve the game. Is it a time waster, as much as probably Diablo 2 was. It was enjoyable something better came out you movedFolks I would first like to point out the price of this game. Roughly about 15 dollars. Next Look at the type, it is a side-scrolling brawler. For the price and getting a few friends together you cannot go wrong with this. Four classes with 4 acts with DLC coming to improve the game. Is it a time waster, as much as probably Diablo 2 was. It was enjoyable something better came out you moved on. But you remember it brought you joy for the 8 hours it took to beat the screaming over skype that you need your shaman friend to save their heal.

    Combat is repetitive, but it is a SIDE SCROLLING BRAWLER, they have done wonders with what they had to work with. All classes are duel wielding which is kind of strange but it works when you need it to. Bosses are sometimes too challenging and sometimes not challenging enough. But this is always fun as long as you don't just sit there pressing 1 button and forward.

    Remember those days of imaginative combos and refuse to spam the one effective combo because you know that would be boring. If your goal is always to beat a game the fastest way possible then go right ahead but if you would like to PLAY then enjoy.    … Expand

    It's a fun casual hack and slash.
    The only way to play this is with an xbox controller.
    I do understand those saying the game is bad because PC controls are broken, but i seriusly think you should not buy these type of games if it is not for playing with gamepads on your TV, It gets better with a friend in local co-op Now, the combat: it's bad.

    Now, the combat: it's bad. A.I aside, the strong attack combos are way too slow, slower than they should
    making impossible to use a 3 combo strong attack with more than 1 enemy close to you.
    Than breaks a lot of your choices, making them ,much more smaller.
    the art style is nice    … Expand

    A pale imitation of Castle Crashers with an empty multiplayer lobby.

    Fine for an hour at a time, but shouldn’t be treated as anything other than a lower alternative to better games doing the same thing.

    The game is pleasant to look at but quickly became tedious and repetitive (even though it’s short – took me less than 4 hours to complete). There’s no challenge in it either – the enemies grow stronger, but the hero does that faster due to the character development system and new weapons. [CD-Action 06/2013, p.64]
