Reviews for "The Siege Of Theldale"

Two achievements don't work

Nice game, similar feel to D-Day Defender. Only thing I see wrong with it is that there aren't any explosions, so you can't get the "Light My Fire" achievement, and I've killed dozens of people with boiling oil (including one wave where I killed 10 people at once with it) and didn't get that one either.

Also there's no good reason you shouldn't be able to keep playing forever once you get the hang of it. I'm not sure whether that's a good thing or a bad thing.

Cheers for the review, I'll look into those achievements right away!

Fun but...

I'm quite impressed by how addictive this game is. The upgrade system was simple, but "I fucking needed those!"

What bugged me were the shield enemies. Especially on the later levels.
What happened, was they arrived at me with groups of 20 or so, and knowing that there's no way I can just shoot each one of them in that tiny gap between the shield and the ground, I called in the archers. No kills on the shield dudes.
I got owned. Now I have to start again -_-
The shield is IMO way too effective, especially since the arrow rain or oil don't work on them. It definitely should not shield against attacks directly from above.

Other thing that kinda bugged me were the spear throwers. They seem pretty identical to enemy archers. They shouldn't have that much range, as it makes no sense someone can throw a spear as far as someone can shoot an arrow.

Besides those the game was really fun.

great game

this is a great game, with a good story and nice gameplay, but in my opinion it could do with either a save or continue system

Xeptic responds:

Initially I was thinking of adding a save system, but considering it'll take most people, say, 15 minutes top to make it to the ending I thought it would be kinda useless.

Thanks for the review!

Eh. Could have been better.

The lack of money got rather overwhelming by the end. And the difficulty of killing axemen (the only real threat) got too great late game. Sometimes you'd get their feet. Sometimes not. When there were four, it got real tricky. And so I died. And I voted lower, on this amazing game, because the difficulty level is annoyingly high and there's no save function.

Fun but tough

Its a good game and great concept with excellent voice acting but I noticed Im only getting exp points from headshot kills but not kills in general Perhaps you could change this so that it is easier to get upgrades and repair otherwise its a good game
