    If you know what you're getting into, Unchained Blades is an enjoyable game that doles out pain and pleasure in equal capacity.

    Unchained Blades has some rather impressive things going for it. The story is interesting, the combat is decent and the voice acting and presentation are top notch.

    Unchained Blades is ultimately marred by a narrative structure that works against the best elements of the role-playing game genre. Just when things are about to get good, the game throws you for a loop and hits the reset button. The simple gameplay and paper-thin characters aren't enough to make up for this unfathomable design decision.

    The story is too light to augment the game's core mechanical focus, while ideas like the follower system feel tacked-on and inconsequential to strategy. Fans of dungeon crawlers may squeeze some enjoyment from the grind, but most players will be turned off by the tedious progression and repetitive battles.

    It's a grindy game, you need to level up a lot. It gets tedious when you leave a dungeon to re stock and then you have to go up so many floors again... there're some shortcuts in some places but they're not enough.
    I liked the artstyle of the game as well as sound and music, story also was good, yet I wished it was actually longer. Game feels really long as u grind so much but there isn't much dialogue and cutscenes.    … Expand
