Smintheus

This game plays like a 2005 flash game. I'm sure the dev put $15 of effort into the game but it certainly does not feel like a $15 experience. Quit mid-way through the 3rd level. Negatives: - Fairly unresponsive controls that made you feel like you were walking too far when you shouldn't be (the game punishes you for walking into water walls which makes the unresponsive controls the more painful) - Graphics look...

At the time of this review I've played for about 2 hours and a half. This is a pretty entertaining puzzle game with a light story and adorable and concise animations and pixel art, at first the controls for laying traps and hit enemies can be a little weird but I got familiar with it very fast and they work very well. So far not a single bug or issue, the game runs flawlessly!

The start of the game felt quite janky and it's mechanics bugged me out. I especially hated how the water works since it just didn't feel intuitive from a gameplay sense. Later on it feels its gotten better, and it has it's fun moments from time to time. Still I felt there is a lack of real focus on what it wants to be. Maybe those who are into adventure puzzle games may enjoy it, but I was here more for the RPG...
