Caves of Lore

This game is good

I have to save game before every fight as it kicks me out after almost every fight. Darn it all.

Idk if I will play it I’m just looking for something to play while listening to an audio book

Can definitely tell this game has lots of love put into it. Props to the creator, will definitely look forward to future updates/future projects you do.

This game is amazing! It has the feel of early Avernum games, with deeper and more polished mechanics. I’ve got a terrible case of restartitus though - can’t stop thinking about new ways to build the party.

Many other reviews have stated all the positives already. I just want to say this: if you’re now into CRPGs because of games like Baldur’s Gate 3 or Divinity Original Sin, buy and support this game! This game is essentially like those games, just in a smaller form. Great gameplay, beautiful low pixel graphics, fun story, and just so much to explore and do. 50 hours of gameplay easily if not more. It’s worth way more than $8, this is a steal and no brainer if you like these types of games. Also while it is on PC, it’s works extremely well on mobile with touch screen controls and looks fine even on a smaller iPhone screen

The mechanics in the game are wonderful but it just feels like all the work went into mechanics and not actual gameplay. The fights are really boring which is a bummer considering how much work you have to put into leveling your character. What I mean is you’ll spend 2-3x as much time in stat and level up screens as you do in battle. There is no respec so look up plenty of walkthroughs and explanations on google so you don’t waste points on abilities that you won’t end up using. The magic and skills are kinda boring to use which again is a bummer considering the way you get spells in the first place is kinda cool. Feels wasted. Ultimately I feel like if you add all the mechanics to a completely different game it would be really cool. But there’s too much tedious stat managing for such simple gameplay

First of, this is a really fun RPG. I’m a bit into Act 2 and am really enjoying myself. There are some challenges though - it doesnt seem like I can raise base stats like Strength which makes it impossible to get to a point where a character can finally equip a cool weapon i found earlier - that has been a fundamental leveling up benefit in most RPGs and that it’s missing here turns a lot of gear into junk. It is also hard to see what you can interact with at times. Sometimes I accidentally move the right joystick button and it shows me that there is a door I can open…wouldn’t have seen it otherwise and now I feel as if I constantly have to “check” the area by using the button (which I wish wasn’t even there as it confuses more than helps). The sun/moon system is too complicated and at this point I have lost interest trying to figure it out. Having said all that it’s still an enjoyable game.

I rarely write reviews on the App Store, but this game is so good and definitely deserves five stars! Crazy this was accomplished by a solo developer 🤯
