While it certainly exceeded my expectations in a number of areas, Of Blades & Tails still has quite a few areas it could improve on. It’s an awfully rough start and the middle needs some work narratively, but it nails the landing. With over 20 hours to beat, a charming aesthetic, and a variety of ways to tackle combat, there’s a lot to sink your teeth into here. I just wish this wasn’t a case of “Yeah it gets good ten hours in.”

Of Blades & Tails is a game for RPG lovers that respects your intelligence and makes you think through every turn. However, the tough early game can turn off some people.

Not bad, I had fun at first. I'm halfway through the game. I like Stoneshard. But there is little variety in this game. Level scailing is a bit weird. Some areas are difficult even though they are low level. Some of them are easy even though they are high level. There seems to be an imbalance. It's hard to tell what enemies are doing when attacking. The treasure maps' clues are unclear and misleading. Dungeon design is not very good. If you are looking for a game similar to Stoneshard, I can recommend it. But not for me.
