April 2025
I did a single play through of this game several years ago and fell in love with it, but my party disbanded. When FTK2 came out, I played it through to 100% over the course of a year with some friends, and we've decided to backtrack into FTK1 now to do the same. I was a bit worried as FTK2 is one of my favorite games of all time given the memories I made with the people I played with. While we miss certain UI upgrades and abilities from the sequel, there's a serious charm about the art and how this game runs in comparison that is making us happy, and it's kind of trippy to go back in time and see a lot of scourges/main characters as younger versions of themselves (and some that aren't even in the sequel!). Everytime certain characters speak we just chuckle because we know what their futures hold. If you want a smoother gaming experience, just hop to 2, but if you're in it for the funsies and the fandom, this is a great game. Plus, if you are hit with a bleed, you bleed triangles. Highly recommend screaming, "Oh no! Not my spicy Doritos!" in response.

Very enjoyable and re-playable game, as there are many different classes, gear, and cosmetics. Story mode is more like a board game with Hildabrants cellar being strictly turn based fighting. This game can be played casually or not with the various difficulty settings, and only gets more fun as you can unlock more items just from playing. The only downside being that you cant exactly play this game solo, as it requires at least two players to complete the story mode or get past level 30 in the cellar. You can play as multiple characters and play that way but It slows the game down. 9/10 :steamthumbsup:

really struggled with the game first time trying; it was just me and my bf aand it was very hard to manage support/damage balance as a group of only two- we either went full damage and suffered on healing/buffing and died as a result; or either one of us would take up full support role and we'd still die due to insufficient party damage. it seems the sweet spot is to have a three people group; we had a friend join up recently and we're currently on our third map. been really fun. idk how it goes on hard mode but we're slowly getting there. game has its ass moments sometimes; you get f load of gold at the final objective- the campaign ends :D can't spend it or have it accumulate in some sort of other type of currency too...wow you're trolling your players!! how unique of you XD

First and foremost: This is an incredible little rougelike strategy RPG game. Saying that, I have to admit that is is very niche game too. For one, its balls hard with a very high barrier for entry. Your runs will become unmanagable very quickly without meticulous planning, which will lead to you dying and having to start all over again. Secondly it is sometimes very based on luck. This to me though, isnt a flaw but an integral part of the game. In essence, the entire game is based on you strategically deciding when to use your recources to tip the odds in your favor or when to let the dice roll freely. If that doesnt sound appealing to you, then I totally get that, but if you are willing to give the game a real shot, im sure youll find much enjoymnent in it. Ive been figureing out the game with a buddy and I havent had this much fun with a game in years. Ive seen a bunch of people criticising the game for being either too hard or luck based. These people clearly just werent into the core concept of the game. Theyre basically just asking for a different game, rather than criticising the game for what it is. All I can say is TRY IT OUT!!

Great strategy game. Fun. But, just make sure your happy with your characters order because it can't be changed once you started the game. Example: In your three man line up, Put your tank on the side so when he taunts any AOE attacks hit one extra person and not two. But if this is your thing get on sale.
