Pathway Critic Reviews
View All (12 total)Crisp combat let down by boring enemies, repetitive missions and a disconnected story.
Pathway brings together RPG tactics and roguelite progression with a unique Indiana Jones setting, but it doesn't have the depth to feel replayable.
Pathway is a workmanlike XCOM-lite whose breezy tone stumbles into some tired tropes.
I think it’s a generally inoffensive game with extremely charming presentation that’s badly suited for the ritualistic plonking down of oneself in front of a chunky desktop PC
Audience Reviews
This was free on Epic some time ago. Normally I consider these games non playable, but this is a gem.
Do you like movie Indiana Jones - Raiders of the lost ark?
Do you like the board game Afrikan tähti (Den försvunna Diamanten)?
This is a story driven turned based gem.
Game mechanic are taken from Jagged Alliance, XCOM, Hard West, Invincible inc etc.
