Athopiu - The Final Rebirth of Hopeless Incarnate

Product received for free a typical RPG maker game, I confess to having had a bug on the image of a monster who had the duty to crush my part and make me start again. I finally; No storyline, we send you in the game without Info off-set "you must survive"?? Character classes... IN DLC at €2?? And who doesn't even work?

FINAL NOTE: 9/20 is the phony RPG maker, there is much better elsewhere in the style ~

(This is copied from my Steam review, though I changed the last line.)

Athopiu is an irredeemable pile of junk in the vein of the Arcane Raise "franchise," only somehow worse and with less effort invested in almost every way. It keeps the conceit of "DLC" characters (really, just savegames where you start with 4 characters in your party instead of 3) since that apparently generates money, but has even less story than the Arcane Raise series, with absolutely none and no ending, the same bare minimum of mechanics (3 characters in fixed classes, all items available from the shop at the beginning of the game), is missing the ability to save the game, and is only about an hour long at best, insofar as anything that can neither be enjoyed nor completed can be considered to have a length.

To sum up the entire game easily: You are dumped into an empty "town" room with walls you can walk through, a tutorial-style popup that shows up every time you enter the town, four NPCs selling all of the items in the game, and nine exits to one-map dungeons full of obnoxiously high-rate random encounters and treasure chests full of gold. The whole "go grab all of the chests, then buy +attack items at 200 a pop / 99 for 19800, enjoy the sound of consuming items 99 times in a row" bit remains, as well, but there's no actual boss or goal, you'll reach absurd power levels after even the first area you complete, and one of the nine areas is essentially unexplorable as the game will crash 50% of the time upon encountering a random monster there.

Also, it's got a bunch of bizarre errors: two basic chest armors are called "Shield" and "Hat", Mythril Caps are accessories, Mythril Armors are helmets (yes, that's right - this game is actually pants-on-head stupid), slimes are called bats, bats are called slimes, bees are called orcs, spiders are called minotaurs, gazers crash the game if encountered, and the Cleric class gets most of the damaging spells, while the "Helix" class (drawn to look like witches, mostly) gets all of the healing spells.

So yeah, no. This is actually zero-effort enough that I reported it as some sort of fraud at the time. Sadly, it wasn't delisted.
