its a deck building RPG plays similarly to Slay the Spire, but with a party and level ups, plus its not a roguelite frankly i prefer this to StS, i didnt feel the roguelite structure benefited StS particularly well

A perfectly enjoyable card battler that isn't also a roguelike. What it lacks in QOL features it makes up for with the charm inherent in all the SteamWorld games. If you've liked the other Steamworld games, and wouldn't mind battles taking a little longer than they strictly should, this is a great addition and well worth the time to play it through.

I'm giving this game a "good, but it could've been better" review. Steamworld Quest goes for a deckbuilder RPG style of game, and while it does excel at giving you choices, the balance is absurdly bad. Some things are just outright way too strong, and there are no reasons not to use them. The game is laughably easy at times, even at the hardest difficulty, you're going to have to nerf yourself to not kill every enemy (besides bosses) too quickly. I think that's perfectly fine for people who are new to RPGs and just want one they can breeze through pretty quickly (it's not a long game at all for the genre, maybe 14 hours to beat), but for someone who has played some of the greats in the genre, this one doesn't impress in any significant way. It's also astonishing how many times they re-use the same enemies over and over. You fight the same dragon boss like 6 times in this game. The story is... basic. You can already predict everything that's going to happen from the beginning of the game, and every time you get to a new area, you know how it's going to end. In fact, they re-use encounters and plot points so frequently that it never feels like the story is actually developing. I like the character designs, and the writing can be funny at times, but that's about it. So what did I like about this game? Well, the shared SP in the cog system was fun. Some cards build skill points that anyone can spend, and the "three in a row" special abilities you get for using cards of the same character can feel like good setups for turns. It's a Steamworld game, so the music is pretty solid and the world of robots is enjoyable to prance around in. Some of the fights on Legend difficulty like the final boss and the arena were legit challenging, but they give you such strong equipment that they make the rest of the game a cakewalk. Overall, 7/10. It's frequently on sale for cheap, but it doesn't leave a strong lasting impression like Steamworld Dig 1 or 2 did. I'm glad I returned to it, but it's still not an excellent RPG example and could have been improved in a number of ways.

SWQHoG is just as lovingly produced as the other Steam World games. The card play is satisfying. yet the story is remarkably unimaginative for a fantasy game. All the other heroes gave up their heroics, so hey let's beat up multiple dragons and mean robots. Tere are two things I do not like: One, cards from downed team members still ger drawn, leading to rounds where I cant play any cards at all, because they all belong to a dead robot. Two: A lot of the encounters and cards just repeat, and repeat, and repeat and.... you get the point. There is an entire arena and a chapter dedicated to repeating past enemies.

This game is very beautiful, definitely crafted with love and care, has a good, heart-touching story and memorable companions. It is linear, for sure, and post-endgame with Colisseum and Arena can take some prep-and-grind time, but If you are looking for a good story with a decent pacing and funny dialogues - this game will provide. Also damn that credits song.
