The Good
●Good combat system
●Excellent voice acting, party banter & funny dialogue moments
●Great voice acting makes for some great characters too (Especially a certain rogue)
●Many secrets to find if that's your bag
●Interesting varied levels although some may be more interesting than others for many
●Some nice music for some the locations you'll crawl
The Bad
●Some enemy areas can be tedious to take down rather than challenging
●Some noticeable FPS drops on the Xbox One S in certain locations / sequences although nothing game stopping
●Some reuse of enemy types with only supped up stats
●Grid-based lock / movement can make it hard to find / see certain items or switches which I suppose is the bane of almost every grid
●Some of the systems don't work as well as they could and may likely be rarely used or thus ignored
The Ugly
●A small amount of tedious puzzles with not always clear goals; some of these are main quest, some optional
The Score
●8/10 It may impress less if you've played (and / or completed) a lot of Dungeon Crawlers to compare it to, but for me, an overall really fun dungeon crawling romp and an impressive first effort by a studio more known for its venerable Pinball FX game series! Great value considering the lower price and Xbox game pass option!

ABOUT THIS GAME
Zen Studios’ modern homage to classic first-person dungeon-crawlers takes you to the land of Operencia, an unconventional fantasy world inspired by a faraway land referenced in countless Central European folktales. An old-school turn-based battle system combines with inspiration from unexplored mythology to offer an RPG experience that feels unique yet also familiar.
An unknown force has abducted the Sun King Napkiraly, leaving Operencia in a state of perpetual darkness – and eventual doom. From hidden royal tombs and cursed castles to an ascent up the World Tree to reach the Copper Forest of the Land of the Gods, explore diverse settings throughout the far reaches of the land…and beyond. Each location boasts its own unique atmosphere, visual style, level design and puzzles, and many take place entirely outdoors.
Operencia is home to an intriguing mix of unexplored mythology and fantastical versions of actual historical locations (e.g., Deva Fortress, Balvanyos) and characters (e.g., Attila, Seven Chieftains of the Magyars), all coming together to form one cohesive new gaming universe. Several of your own seven party members take influence from heroes of forgotten tales told hundreds of years ago, such as the brave knight Mezey and Sebastian the Dragon Slayer.
Along with a deeply strategic turn-based battle system full of spells and special skills to execute, tile-based movement encourages thorough exploration of each area. For added challenge, turn on Cartographer mode to plot out each of the 13 maps yourself. How many secrets will you find?
Breathtaking hand-drawn cutscenes and fabulous 2D character portraits bring the story to life in a style not easily compared to any other game. More than 30 colorful characters are fully voiced through top-tier performances authentic to the game’s Central European roots.
Explore 13 diverse, puzzle-filled levels
Defeat more than 50 enemy types
Switch between 7 fully upgradable – and memorable – characters
Robust difficulty settings allow you to select options such as limiting saves, implementing permadeath, and disabling auto-mapping to create your own
Stunning visuals powered by Unreal Engine 4
An epic orchestral score composed by Arthur Grosz
Fully 3D environments, enemies and objects, plus high-fidelity advanced effects with dynamic shadows and lighting
AAA Indie production quality and polish with top-tier voice acting, soundtrack, cutscenes and writing
