Pawnbarian - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

Chess-inspired puzzle roguelike. Demo - single IAP unlocks full game.

The demo is ad-free. It contains a single character and dungeon.

Pawnbarian is a turn-based puzzle roguelike with bite-sized, but challenging sessions. Play cards to control your hero like a chess piece on a tiny dungeon board, outmaneuver enemies with their assortment of tricky abilities, and become the mightiest warrior of the Chesslands!

Features
- Use a deck of chess pieces to hack and slash through hordes of monsters.
- Pick up the basics instantly if you're familiar with chess, or learn in minutes if you aren't.
- Carefully plan your moves to navigate challenging, emergent tactical situations.
- Spend treasure to upgrade your cards with additional powers.
- Blitz through quick 15-30 minute runs - or die trying.
- Take on the infinite post-run Gauntlet to see how long you can survive.
- Pick from 6 characters to conquer 3 dungeons, all requiring an unique approach.
- Progress through Chains, a series of extra difficulty modifiers.

Not Features
- No permanent upgrades, and not much that needs unlocking. The progress and satisfaction come from your growing mastery of the game's elegant systems!
- No complex and varied builds. The shops provide a few key decisions, but the bulk of the roguelike depth lies in how you approach the emergent combat puzzles!

Super fun tactical game

Really enjoyed this game, cleared the max chains (difficulty levels) on 4 characters. Hoping the developer releases more characters/ventures/sequel games or any new ideas.

Great game

I love how every decision in this game brings big consequences. It requires you to think before you do which isn’t something you see in a lot of other games. The graphics remove the experience of playing on a mobile device and really suit what the game is.

Good game

I enjoyed playing the first levels of the game, but the higher levels are based on chance rather than skill. It loses its appeal quickly.

Only issue price

Price is unreasonable for 10.99 but overall fun

Good but way too expensive

The gameplay is great but you will run out of things to do after a few hours. The price being over $10 is really absurd. Be realistic.

Great

SUPER GOOD

Awesome game but scared to commit

First things first, awesome game, I love the chess move gameplay and think there is a sufficient amount of upgrades for the pieces and variation in enemies and floors, all done amazingly. I finished the first dungeon on my 3rd or 4th run and was excited for more and was a bit spooked by the price, I definitely want to buy it but don’t currently have any free money at this time. Don’t be discouraged though, I will be buying when I can x:)

Nice game

This game is really good as it does a good job at making a strategy really fun combined with the art style and sound design make it a great game.
