Ember (2016)

It’s a fully packed game that deserves to see some DLC or maybe an Ember 2. It’s a good jaunt for those old school gaming funs that love their sword and sorcery with combat, crafting and cool items and skills. Ember is worth a go. Have fun, play games.

A good looking quite-old-style RPG, with a solid story and some very nice gameplay mechanics... not perfect, but still enjoyable.

In the end, Ember is a good RPG that caters more to genre beginners than veterans. The trimming of the traits and the abolishment of classes makes it easier for some players to concentrate on the gameplay instead of character and party micromanagement. That's not necessarily a bad thing, as everything from the gameplay to the story is rather solid despite not really doing anything to stand out from the crowd.

Ember is a good rpg, especially for its price. If you are looking for a simple and immediate rpg, Ember is made for you, but the game has some weaknesses and it does not have a deep gameplay.

If you’re looking for an introduction to isometric RPGs Ember might be the game for you, but if you’re looking for a deeper, more memorable experience, I recommend looking elsewhere.

Ember offers a fun RPG experience from a rising indie developer reminiscent of classical games of the genre. Technical flaws and over-simplified mechanics mar an otherwise quality experience.

This game is OUTSTANDING. Artwork, sound, combat, interesting story, NO GLITCHES. I never leave reviews but this game is so uniquely good I had to do it this time. I would!D have been willing to pay a lot more money for a game like this. Hopefully there will be add-ons or sequels. Keep up the good work Ember creators!!!

Ember isn't a masterpiece but does mush better then other rpg's with great combat, story and crafting but the enviroments look like they are stolen from other rpg's and the game is somethimes boring but overral very good

This is a nice 20-25 hour RPG game. While it is limited in terms of number of skills and items, it all seems to be quite well balanced. Everything seems to be just about right. Not too many side quests, not too few either. Enemies are powerful enough to give you some challenge all the way throughout gameplay, but are not overpowering. I just wish there were some good items to be gained from questing and monster killing. Because all the good stuff (well most of it) can be easily crafted. To be honest, this game is nothing special. But for some reason, it made me want to complete all the side and main quests. Which I can't say about any recent AAA titles...

Siendo un habitual consumidor de rol, la verdad es que este juego me ha dejado bastante indiferente. Tiene unos gráficos vistosos y coloridos y buena ambientación, pero todo en él es tremendamente genérico. Continuamente te enfrentas a los mismos enemigos, obteniendo siempre las mismas 5 o 6 armas y 3 o 4 armaduras con el mismo valor. El sistema de combate es poco ágil e intuitivo, así como las habilidades especiales, que te hacen seleccionar la habilidad y arrastrar sobre quién vas a usarla. De no ser por la pausa, sería inmanejable, pero al mismo tiempo, dicha pausa resta dinamismo al juego. Si a esto le añadimos que no está localizado al español, me dio mucha pereza dedicarle tantas horas para seguir avanzando Creo que perdieron una buena oportunidad para destacar, pero se quedó en un JDR del montón

Ember is a game that has a simplistic side to it. The story is simplistic. The leveling system is simplistic. The crafting is simplistic. Even the combat system is simplistic. Yet, at the very same time, the game is very absorbing, and has a real charm. The gameplay is a little rough around the edges. You can feel that this is a mobile port, which means a lot of clicking and drag'n'dropping which was probably much easier on iPad than it is with a mouse. This makes combat more than a little clanky and unintuitive. I suppose that on mobile devices it could have been a smash hit, but on PC it's "just" one of those RPGs that you'll play for 20+ hours and then move on to something more challenging. It is hard to define what makes this game so likable, but it has a "soul" that is difficult to come by these days in modern AAA games industry. Ember is surely well-worth its asking price
