    The writing is bland and doesnt make much sense. The graphics are cardboard cutouts that bounce up and down. No voice overs or much in the way of sound effects. Very little in the way of initial customization. This could have been a good game but there are much better indie titles out there in a similar style.

    Sluggish gameplay. It’s got it’s elements but I just can’t get into it. It’s not for gamers like me who look for a Zelda type story and gameplay in games.

    It's fun for like the first eight hours, afterwards it's monotonous and repetitive. A lot of scum saving to really make it through as well. Ironman mode is painful. Not sure where all the love for this game is coming from.

    Interesting concept spoiled by a very boring storyline and extremely verbose characters!

    A time came when I just couldn't care about the story or dialogues. Started skipping through them. The only other remaining gameplay was the turn-based "strategy" which I found to be dull and boring. Also, recruiting a hero seemed impossible because the game didn't give me that option more

    Also, recruiting a hero seemed impossible because the game didn't give me that option more than once.

    Overall, a very unsatisfying game!

    The developers chose an unusual path, but the product of their labor is neither roguelike nor a full-blown RPG. The game’s original concept is running idle.

    A beautifully styled roleplay experience that takes the best of both tabletop and computer gaming worlds. Heroes age, time goes on, but there are always monsters to be slain. Join the fun.

    Wildermyth is trying something very few other RPGs do, and it's cool to see how well it all comes together. I find it to be technically impressive and remarkably novel, but unfortunately, the end result is not as interesting as I hoped it would be. Still, with a great aesthetic and a solid enough combat system, it is an earnestly made game unlike much anything else.
