The Path of Destinies - Reviews

by Myrthos, 2016-04-12 22:37:51

Here are a couple of reviews for the today released Stories: The Path of Destinies that range from reasonable to good.

Playstation Lifestyle, 8.5

branching paths may bring to mind unnecessary padding and repetition, but the developers at Spearhead Games clearly took the initiative to avoid that. Stories is a lot of fun to play through multiple times, thanks to some thoroughly smooth and enjoyable combat — even though it’s snatched its main ideas from the jaws of the Batman: Arkham games — and great level layouts that let you explore new territory even on multiple return trips. From an aesthetic perspective, I really think a lot of players will dig the fairytale-inspired character design and colorful environments, which might help them overlook the occasional technical hiccups. Overall, this is one action-RPG fans won’t want to miss.

WCCFtech, 7.4

Even with its flaws, Stories: The Path Of Destinies is an enjoyable action role playing game with a very unique feel and gameplay features. The blend of old and new mechanics works incredibly well, easily keeping players engaged in the first few playthroughs. Things do become repetitive in the long run, but the unique choice system manages to carry things along until the true ending.

We Got This Covered, 3.5/5

As a sum of its parts, Stories: The Path of Destinies ends up being a good game that could have been great. There’s a lot to like here, don’t get me wrong, but repetition and certain performance issues keep this adventure from being something truly special.

Hardcore Gamer, 3/5

ZTGD, 9.5

GamingTrend, 8.5

GOGConnected, 6.5
