Regions of Ruin

Fun game- but once you beat it- there isn't much else to do. Replay value is a huge deal to me, as it indicates how fresh the experience is, and how well the game can keep your attention.

After awhile, I felt like I was playing the game just to see how it ends, and less because I was legitimately interested in exploring the map. Lots of fun little quests to do- but eventually, everything feels similar.

Would Rate: Hazy

God this was a fun ride. Rolling around with The Fellowship of the Dwarves just laying waste to everything and building up your town is awesome.  It's like a more streamlined Hinterland but 2d and only dwarves, which is good. Map has enough locations to explore with some light puzzle solving to keep you occupied for a good while. Eagerly awaiting the sequel. I feel like a mix of this and Kingdom: New Lands/Two Crowns could be a masterpiece. Which I believe someone ahs attempted (it's got some kind of viking name) but the reviews say that it failed.
