Unepic Reviews
Unepic is a liar. There — I said it. Why is it a liar? Well, look at the name — the game implies that it\'s \"unepic,\" but in actuality, this is one of the most epic quests seen on the Wii U eShop. The name actually helps set the tone because, while the gameplay is for the hardcore gamer, the game manages to lighten the tone with excellent and funny dialogue.
Unepic is a standard dungeon crawler with standard combat, enhanced by its goofy characters and story. If you're in the mood for a game that doesn't take itself too seriously, and don't mine the occasional weed/D&D/Star Wars joke, then Unepic might be for you. However, if you're looking for an engrossing RPG with deep mechanics, your time is likely best spent elsewhere.
Unepic is a solid game that holds up very well throughout. It offers up a stiff challenge, while maintaining a sound sense of humour, and will go down especially well with those of us that remember (or still play) all-night Dungeons & Dragons sessions.
With much to explore and so many ways of storming the castle's inhabitants, Unepic is a fun and well-designed challenge for those who enjoy platformers and yon hefty olde RPG feel. Its tight and rewarding core makes it a quest that can be enjoyed along with, or even in spite of, its cheekier sense of humour.
