Every time this dev makes a game it just gets better. I've been with ya since grim quest, your first. Love the story telling, game play, it's easily the best game I've ever played on a phone. Better than a lot of console games if you ask me. I don't mind paying to remove adds, because the adds are optional anyway. You don't lock me behind an add wall, it's not pay to win, it's simple enough to play on mobile but still intricate enough to be very entertaining. Someone ought to give you an award
I enjoy this game immensely. it keeps me immersed and aiming for new creative ways to survive on perma death mode, the different options you get depending on which house you serve makes things all the more interesting.
Another brilliant followup, and I think a better effort than Grim Tides because it tries less hard to be a followup. The mechanics are the same in the sense that veterans know how things work while still being faced with new concepts, challenges and strategies. The gameplay feels more balanced with more even abilities, allowing more freedom for customisation. Just to pick a fault, I'm not certain that the more artistic graphics are necessary, i preferred simplicity, but that's a tiny quibble
