    A breath of fresh air... Really fun game full of options behind a simple layer. Awesome humorous, but maybe only for RPG gamers like me

    Игра с восхитительным юмором и сатирой, но кривым геймплеем. Игра пытается в классическую РПГ, но выходит это у нее, мягко говоря, не очень хорошо. Поиграв час, вы уже сможете сделать вывод, хотите ли играть дальше. Вся игра будет строиться на фирменном юморе создателя, который кочует из игры в игру.Игра с восхитительным юмором и сатирой, но кривым геймплеем.

    If you like 2d platformers and rpg, get it. Its one of the best games I've played in a long time. lots of character and clearly the creator enjoyed creating it. the rpg elements feel well balanced. the 2d room discovery reminds me of jet set willy 2 for some reason. why the media reviews is only 60 something I don't know. I bought it based on user reviews here and wasn't disappointed.

    The writing and voice is entrancing, enertaining and funny.

    The art and animation is simple but very good,you can see him drinking potions,
    do some spells and things like that.

    I have to praise the p2p multiplayer you can play it with another 3 friends by just sharing ip,
    great party game unepicly funny, And the level editor and downloadable levels.

    I want to see a sequel or something similar but bigger more complex and detailed than the first game, a 2d with much more levels and enemies, it would be great the same art style and writing.
    Because the game is somewhat unique and when I feel bored with it I can't find anithing similar to quite cut it.    … Expand

    I recently got this game on the Steam Summer sale and I'm having a blast. The game is deep, fun, and has a large variety of weapons and spells with different effects, something that I really miss in most games nowadays.

    Unepic is one of the greatest platform-RPG games I have ever played: it's funny, addictive, challenging and requires more than 20 hours to be completed. Most of all, it is entirely developed by one guy only, and nevertheless it is better than many AAA games.

    Grandioso juego. Buenos ratos he pasado. Para los que no han probado el rol es una buena toma de contacto y perderle el miedo a menús, tiradas y estadísticas. En mi opinión la crítica está muy equivocada.

    Vale cada céntimo que pagué por él.

    Yo no soy mucho de multijugador pero en este le pego unas horas de vez en cuando. Larga vida con los mods y los aportes de la comunidad.

I love this game. The sounds, the music, the many different mannerisms and animations of enemies. I am a programmer myself. What I see here in UnEpic is a HUGE value. As an old school 2D gamer, I would compare this game to Castlevania Symphony of the Night. Yes, there is much hidden and to be discovered in UnEpic. My only problem with it is that I know it has an end.… Expand

I've seen a lot of negative comments about the story and the humour used in the game, but if you're a gamer you'll appreciate the references that pop out of every corner. The story can be summed up as "if you were teleported into an RPG, how would you react?" The protagonist is a gamer who wakes up in an RPG game and takes it totally in stride, giving everything he comes across names based on video games he's played in the past (he spends the entire game calling the dark spirit following you around "Zeratul" for those SC nerds out there.)

    Absolutely recommend, huge replay value and it includes multiplayer for those who are interested in coop play.    … Expand

    The game mixes very well the humor and the nerd/geek topics, I found it very funny. Also it's challenging, and that encourage the player to continue the game until you finish it. The voices in Spanish are just awesome.

    UnEpic is a 2D side scroller game that was developed by one single person over a period of two years!

    The Single player game is completed but I found a couple issues where the voice wouldn't come through and it was just the text. Other then that the game is completed for single player and is very enjoyable.

    It starts off with a group of friends playing a role playing game and then one of them has to leave the table and mysteriously finds himself in a dungeon. Starting off with only your lighter to light the way you will come across a spirit who possess you and add some conversation along the way.

    Their is many references to movies and games through out and the first one is Chester Copperpot!

    The game is playable with the Xbox360 controller and was also made to be played with it. The developer did an awesome job in making this game and also to the little things that make it enjoyable to play.

    I spent three hours so far playing the game and found that there are in game achievements to get that add to the fun.

    There is also a healing spot to replenish your health and remove any afflictions. The healing spot will also save the game to.

    I have included a video of my first 25 minutes of play so you can see what its like.

    UnEpic is a fun and enjoyable game. I recommend it because it really is worth a play!    … Expand

    If you've ever enjoyed a game of Dungeons & Dragons, you should get this. The levelling up system is great, letting you (eventually) make the character that you want to play. Multiplayer is in the PC version, as is a level designer. The Wii-U version makes great use of the controller, and has off-screen play.

    This is honestly a great game. The reviewers based it off the Alpha/Beta state of the game during early access, the game has changed drastically since then. Ignore their reviews and seriously... pick up this game if you like RPG side scrollers/platformers.

Where it starts to get different is in the skills and dialogue, the new dialogue being of a very nerdy guy and his cliche grumpy ghost buddy. The skill system that is implemented is a nice touch and pretty simple, you kill X amount of monsters, lvl up, then put a few points into the skills of your choice, such as, strength, axes, swords, magic, and so on. The magic system is a bit underpowered in that you really only get enough points to effectively use 2-3 of the 8 magics. All and all I put 20 hours into my first playthrough and enjoyed every bit of it.… Expand

    Unepic is best played with friends. The game is quite challenging and it helps to have more than one person to tackle the tasks and challenges the game throws at you. The game revolves around a DnD style and I'm just going to say it, the Dungeon Master is an absolute troll. Unepic will make you laugh, chances are it won't make you cry and you'll have a good time.

Low price is one of things that is very welcome for buying this game. So if you have some 7 euros or 7 dollars to spend, buy this and enjoy 20 or more hours of play.

    vut it gave totaly different satisfaction to me.
    Love the story of the game(well, not that important though)
    And wits that makes me laugh at every single one.
    With cheap price, it's worth buying it.

    UnEpic delivers an unoriginal but well written story, packed with some funny lines; a solid action platform gameplay, full of back tracking and respawn; and some hardcore RPG elements. The end result is a game that hardly lends itself to interpretations: you either love it or hate it.
