Heroes of Gaia Review

+ Universal App - Designed for iPhone and iPad
By Campbell Bird on January 26th, 2015
Our rating: starstarhalfstarblankstarblankstar :: TIMERS OF MIGHT AND MAGIC
This free-to-play rpg looks a lot like Heroes of Might and Magic, but it's poor interface and layering of mechanics makes it feel unnecessarily messy.

Our rating: starstarhalfstarblankstarblankstar :: CLUNKY BUILDING
A shadow of the franchise it's based upon, ANNO: Build an Empire isn't a very good freemium city builder.

GAMEVIL Updates Darkness Reborn with Item Evolution, an Expert Mode, and More

Our rating: starstarstarstarblankstar :: HACK :: Read Review »

Fans of GAMEVIL's relatively new MORPG Darkness Reborn are in for a treat: the game is getting a January update.

Per the recent press release, version 1.1.1 brings:

Elemental Dungeons: Every Monday through Saturday, players can participate in daily dungeons, where they will encounter and defeat monsters of different strengths and elements such as fire, ice, poison, and lightning, in order to receive Evolve Stones.

Item Evolution System: Using these newly introduced Evolve Stones, players can evolve their maximum-enhanced Epic and Legendary items for the chance to increase their items' Gear Scores.

Equipment Salvage System: In addition to having an Evolve option, Epic and Legendary items now have a Salvage function through which players can acquire crafting materials, Evolve Stones, and Evolution Catalyst (an item that increases the chance of a successful evolution).

Expert Mode: After clearing all 15 stages in the Fallen Iron Castle map in Hard Mode, players can attempt to clear stages in Expert Mode, beginning in the Archen Forest map. The Expert Mode will bring challenges such as increased HP, Attack, and number of monsters.

We had an opportunity to formally look at Darkness Reborn last year and enjoyed it quite a bit. It's available for free (with available in-app purchases) on the App Store now.

Our rating: starstarstarhalfstarblankstar :: STRAIGHTFORWARD FIGHTING
Elune Saga is a slightly unremarkable freemium-based RPG, but that doesn't mean it can't be fun.
