Jan. 2025
The game is clearly inspired by Battle Brothers and other mercenary company games, and it does a pretty good job of accomplishing that. They have a decent number of classes for all of your companions and for the first half of the game I felt like that was enough. By the second half of the game, you quickly get to the point of having two of most classes and while they can have different skills between them they felt very samey. I was wishing there were more types of equipment to distinguish the characters. I don't think it has enormous replay value like other mercenary company games as by the end of the campaign I feel like I experienced everything, but I was happy to play till the end with my company. A few gripes aside, I solidly enjoyed the game and its well worth one play through.

I'm a fan of battle brothers so the bar is really high here. So I'd give this a thumbs up to support the devs but in reality, I can't even bring myself to finish the game. Some feedback if the devs are reading reviews. 1) The pace of the game feel ... clunky. To be honest. Sometimes I felt rushed, but the other times, it's like the same thing again and again and again. 2) Dungeons are repetitive and uninspiring. 3) Just ... use DnD or classic classes ... 4) more customization and revamp your skill trees in future project. Overall it's a 6.5/10 for me.

Good game. If you like battle brothers, this is kind of like that, just less freedom in where you move and the combat is easier. It's not as good as battle brothers obviously, but it does decent. After a while I could care less about the random missions from the towns. The visuals aren't that great honestly and the diversity of the characters is pretty low with only 7 classes. The combat is decent though. It is worth, just get on sale.

I bought the Iron Oath because its advertised as comparable to Battle Brothers. It is not really, other than the framing device of being a mercenary company and the existence of an overland map with RNG contracts. Iron Oath is more of a narrative TRPG. There is a main story which is good enough for me to see it through to completion, and there are a fair number of side quests with entertaining writing which carries the game. However, it's not replayable. There are only enough sidequests to last one playthrough, and they're already starting to repeat now that I'm near the end. The build diversity and game balance is poor. Statistics other than health and power are mostly worthless, and while it is possible to do fancy things like push enemies into traps, there is rarely any reason to do anything other than crowd control particularly dangerous enemies and kill the remainder with direct damage. Since most of the enemies are very samey, once you figure it out all battles follow a very similar pattern.

Veteran of Battle Brothers here. The game plays very similarly, with the difference that your mercenaries are more magical and have predetermined classes - this can be both a bad and a good thing. Another con and pro at the same time - there is an overall plot that guides you to do something, making it less free than BB. Last but not least - unfortunately, the map is not generated, which means replayability is actually not that big. Pros: - Very nice pixel graphics, and the general art style is good, - Good BB vibes but with a twist. Cons: - IMO not enough variety in enemies and maps (this is my feeling rather than a mathematical check).
