Hack-n-slash games are few and far between so I always get excited when a new one comes out.
is pretty simple and straight forward, nothing new for this type of game. Melee is done by simple left clicking, constantly, while your sword icon is over an enemy. By right clicking, you will perform a special move or spell that is saved in your hot bar.Before you set off into the world, you are given a quest to complete. Each world seemed to have a total of 10 or so
quests that can be completed along with the main mission. As you explore that lands, you will come across all sorts of things that will stand in your way. As you mow through them, you gain experience points. You do have the option, inside of town, to disperse some of your EXP towards your god so they may favor you with points that can be added to your skill tree. You can swap which god you want to favor you, or just stick with one. When enough experience is reached, your character will level up and be given 5 attribute points that can be added to Strength, Vitality, Intelligence, or Dexterity. Each server their own purpose depending on the hero you choose. Items and money are plentiful through the call. As you slay your enemies, there is a chance that something is going to drop off of their body. As in previous hack-n-slash titles, items are based of rarity and are color coded to help you determine how useful the items is. When you first play, the only color items you will see are white, light blue, dark blue, and orange. As you open up higher difficulties, even rarer items become available for your character to use. Don't get to excited when you see that orange drop. It may be above your level or an attribute may need to be raised before it can be equipped.Multiplayer allows up 6 players join together and battle Seth's forces in challenge mode, or go one-on-one and team battles. Co-op mode is exactly what it sounds like. Play through the story with 5 other friends.
If hack-n-slash is your cup of joy, then don't look past Loki: Heroes of Mythology.
