    Wartales is a mix of great ideas tempered by some questionable design decisions. I really want to love this game, and there is plenty of fun to be had, but I can’t help but feel like there was a missed opportunity to make a good game a true great. For fans of the genre I do recommend picking it up and giving it a go, but I really hope that the game gets expanded upon in the future to let it live up to its full potential. [Early Access Provisional Score = 60]

    It feels consistent. It’s workmanlike without being uninspired, fascinating without being flashy. It’s like a loveable cockney chimney sweep with a sparkle in its eye. It might be too mundane to scratch the itch for high adventure, but if you’re feverish for a grounded low fantasy ramble with the occasional giant rat, Wartales will cure ya. Also, apropos of nothing: I still haven’t played Battle Brothers yet, so I don’t know. Go away.

Demanding in development. Characters get tired too quickly. Exploration is difficult but enjoyable. The game is too boring at times. Interesting crafting, there are a lot of dependencies, but also difficult to collect. Overall, the game is very complicated to master, which makes you want to play all the time. Just when you think you've got it straight, it suddenly turns out that your companions require payment, or you've fought a pack of wolves and you don't have enough money for healing.… Full Review »
