I don't review many games, b/c honestly it's kind of like screaming into a void. However, I hope this one finds folks who are on the fence. Buy this game! It's fantastic, addictive, and most of all fun. If you enjoyed BG3 you will have fun here. It's not as high in production value or polish, but it's damn fun, and it's fully voice acted. They have a neat conversation system where your whole party can participate and there's not just one character dominating the lines. I'd love to see how this matures in Solasta 2. The combat is not super difficult, but it's fun, and there are neat things you can do to swing the tide in your favor. The adventure is pretty long, and very addictive. I wish the Travel mode were a bit more intelligent, but all in all it's well done. Seriously don't sleep on this pick it up, take advantage of the winter sale and add this puppy to your collection. Edit: Fixed a typo.

A sleeker, more streamlined CRPG experience I enjoyed this game very much; it gave me many hours of entertainment. I also found it more accessible than other CRPGs I have played, which was a welcome relief. I have played table-top RPGs for many, many years, so CRPGs are a natural fit for me. However, some times I find them just a bit much : too much inventory to wade through and evaluate, too many books and bits of lore too read, too many spells and attacks to go through every freakin' turn, too many icons strewn across your HUD...it can get exhausting. Not so Solasta. I found the number of actions available to be perfectly manageable while still having everything I could need in the course of a combat encounter. Spells required some selection to get what you wanted but for the most part you stuck with your selections once you were there. Travel through the world is largely "set and forget": you choose your destination and then sit back and watch your party travel (along with a travel log that lets you know what your party gets up to along the way), and you don't need to put hand on mouse until you arrive or have a random encounter. Likewise with travel in a dungeon: once you get to a waypoint you can enter fast-travel mode, zooming out to the map and rapidly moving a single player to another waypoint (providing you've already explored it), at which time you return to the game with the whole party. No muss, no fuss, no tedious backtracking. While streamlined, this game is in no way shallow. I found the story to be fairly compelling, if a bit standard: MacGuffin you pick up needs more bits that send you all over the place on many noble quests until you have all the bits you need to do the thing that lets you fight the big bad at the end. I appreciated the simplicity. At least it was easy to follow. There are lots of side quests including ones that deepen your characters' backstories, and lots of dialogue with various NPCs, including the governing Council. The NPCs and your characters are well written, with the dialogue showing good characterization and delivering some chuckles along the way. The voice acting is great, but I found myself wondering how many different voices were employed for the PCs and, if I were to replay the game with all different characters, would they have all the same voices. One thing I really thought this game nailed was inventory. Turns out there's a sort of scavenger guild whose services you can employ. Once you've cleared out an area and made it safe, they go in and grab all the humdrum loot that you couldn't be bothered to pick up (and would be too heavy anyway) and cut you in for a healthy percentage of the profits. Why can't more games do this? It's brilliant. Also, if you want magic items in this game, you're not going to find them on the ground. No, you have to craft them, which requires getting the right materials and having good enough relations with the relevant faction (of which there are several in the game) that you can buy the recipe. You can buy the materials as well, so really it's just a matter of getting enough money and turning in the right items (usually books or other lore items) to the right faction, rather than having to hunt all over the gods' green earth. The game makes all of this easy to follow, giving you just the info you need, but not too much. Graphically, this game is by no means cutting edge. But the visual design is well done and I found the somewhat-retro graphics to be charming in a way that AAA photorealism never can be. Like I always say, I'd rather play a million dollar game made with love than a 100 million dollar game made with indifference any day of the week. A word about multiplayer: I played this game with a friend, sharing two characters apiece. It was pretty much perfect other than the occasional disconnect. Only two players could play, but I understand this went up to 4 in subsequent DLC. If you enjoy CRPGs but sometimes find yourself bogged down by all the minutiae, give this a go. You might just find a new favourite.

Solasta is a diamond in the rough, but that diamond is a little hazy and could definitely do with some polish. It has all the familiar trappings of a turn-based CRPG so if you are looking for something you can throw hundreds of hours into, this is definitely it. Let me tell you a bit about my journey. About two years ago I embarked on the main campaign, using mostly pregen characters, but I had a blast with the recommended party. I left it behind, feeling it was a little empty and devoid of real choices. A couple of years later, now 2025, having played BG3 and Kingmaker, I was gnawing at the bit for something I could really sink my teeth into, so I picked up the DLCs on a Steam sale. I did a bit of research about mods for this game, since I had heard they are a game-changer, and that was absolutely true. If you decide to play Solasta, I highly recommend using the Unfinished Business mod. It allows multiclassing and it adds a ton of depth to the game with new subclasses, feats, powers, races, items, quests, and tons more stuff the original devs really could have benefited from including and did/could not. Hopefully Solasta II will be an improvement, making up for the shortcomings of this title. In any case, Solasta plays well and is fairly true to 5e. The UB mod also lets you alter rule sets to update the game to a modern system, which was a welcome addition. The game plays great with a mouse and keyboard and not so much with a gamepad later in the game, using the mod. Once you start getting up in levels, your action bar gets fairly long, making gamepads nearly useless as they do not scroll properly with the game's extended UI from the mod. It's not unplayable, but rather annoyingly serviceable. I made it through about 65 additional hours of the game with the mod, through Ice Palace and Lost Valley DLCs. Make no mistake, it is not Baldur's Gate 3 quality. It is an indie made by a very small team of developers. It is clearly a passion project and while the gameplay is definitely there, things like dialogue choices, inventory management, and item progression are sorely lacking. There are no "gear builds" or anything to truly work towards other than the completion of quests and the adventure itself. There is something wholesome about all that, but that may not appeal to the powergamer looking to spec a character for insane damage through keen itemization. Solasta just isn't that sort of title, but that doesn't it isn't a ton of fun or cannot hold its own in a conversation with a juggernaut like BG3. 8/10 in my opinion. Well worth the sale price and definitely pickup the DLCs and support the hell out of this developer! Solasta II is just a short time away now! Very excited to see what TA will bring to the table in the next one.

Before we had Baldur's Gate, this was the best way to experience what DnD 5E is like in a computer game. Story and writing are not strong in this game, but the gameplay is simply an amazing achievement. Maps are big and engaging with height levels and light. Enemies are well-designed and varied. Everything from low-damage but Auto-hit Magic Missile to Light (just a spell that causes some of your stuff glow!) is useful. The developers deserve praise, and even after BG's release, do try this game. It's surprisingly well-made.

9/10. Solasta feels like playing a good campaign of DnD with your friends, just without the friends and the bad jokes. Or good jokes, depending on your group, I guess. Yes, the game doesn't look amazing and sometimes controls or the camera can be slightly clunky, but the gameplay is great. The story is nice, the characters interesting, combat is great. Solasta is challenging and tbh the final fight is unnecessarily hard, but other than that the game is/was so enjoyable to me that I'll probably get the DLCs soon and start another run before Solsata II releases. Definitely recommend!
