    Aside from the slightly frustrating repetitiveness in combat, Guild of Darksteel is a gaming experience I am happy to have had. I look forward to seeing what else this developer can create in the future.

    Guild of Darksteel has a couple of interesting ideas and a strong atmosphere, but it falls short when it comes to combat. Not to mention the promises it seems to silently made to the player and then fails to deliver. Repetitiveness, cryptic systems and mechanics prevent this game from truly shining. Ultimately, Darksteel remains to be a little bit too dark.

    This retro adventure is a bit of an oddity, on the one hand seemingly wanting to evoke a feeling of of the likes of the classics Prince ofThis retro adventure is a bit of an oddity, on the one hand seemingly wanting to evoke a feeling of of the likes of the classics Prince of Persia and company but on the other trying to produce a more complex combat system to spice things up. Honestly the issue is that neither attempt really works out that well with your movements and platforming capabilities simply being too simple to be interesting and the combat being limited by far too few enemy types and loads of dull and repetitive fights. Really it feels like it needs a few patches to spruce things up and make things more interesting, in the current state there’s just nothing terribly memorable to say about it to make it a worthwhile experience.
