About

Evoland is a role-playing video game. It is the debut project by French development company Shiro Games.

Plot and setting

The game is centered on the theme of action-adventure video games evolution. It takes place in the world of Evolandia and follows a typical story of a chosen one and his fight against evil forces. The game’s dialogues, items descriptions, and overall style are filled with humor, parody, and references to iconic video game series.

Gameplay

The main feature of the game is unlocking of graphical, sound and gameplay improvements. The game starts as a monochrome top-down adventure with no sound and gradually, as the player progresses through the story, transforms into full-fledged 3D RPG with soundtrack, different settlements throughout the game world, side-quests, NPCs and equipment system.
Evoland’s gameplay continually changes. It can be divided into three main parts, each one resembling a certain game series. The first is top-down adventure similar to older The Legend of Zelda titles. Like Zelda, it features different puzzles and dungeons throughout the game. Then the game changes its combat system to turn-based imitating Final Fantasy series with its random encounters and party system. After that, it becomes the top-down hack-n-slash game in the style of Diablo series with the accent on obtaining various loot.

Evoland reviews and comments

A nice nod to the evolution of games. Not too long but enjoyable the entire way through.

This Game is fantastic. Evoland is a Love Letter to the RPG Series Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest, the dungeon crawler Diablo and Zelda. The Game evolves while Playing, in the Beginning everything is 2D and pixelated, but later it goes over into a 3D World with orchestral Music. The only Flaws would be the partially hook control of the Menu in Combat (instead of leaving the Pointer on the option you select in the Round, you have to select them again each time), or Switching weapons. But these are very very small Little things. The Length of the Game is between 3 and 6h depending on whether you are playing at 100% or just following the Story. The Level Of difficulty is relatively light. You don't get stuck anywhere. This Game has been so captivating that I played through it in one Go. Clear Buy recommendation!

Evoland is a great game. I'm new to this game but I'm already in love with it. The thing you can make better is to have a " are you sure" screen with yes and no buttons when you click at " new game". Otherwise you can accidental start a new game when your really long on your current game

Beautiful game, an RPG at the final fantasy done well, as the story goes on, as the title suggests, everything evolves, from the music, to the character, to the graphics. Beautiful title, really well done. I also expect the second chapter for iPhone to be released, it would be a shame not to put it.

After an hour of play time, I was convinced of the game and bought the second part directly because the two games were on sale. The game has been designed with attention to detail! I do not understand why people complain because of the controller? Have you never played an old game on Gameboy back then or anywhere? The control makes the game just degree, otherwise it would be far too easy. :)

The game is fluid and well done. The riddles are good and many funny allusions of many games are included. But it is unplayable for me. I have 30! Minutes played on the final boss (where Mansur's chest) without it goes on. Deleted again, too bad. Why, above all, does one learn in the cave of the 2nd amulet how to play properly (similar to Diablo) and then, like Zelda, fight the final opponent again. Illogical

The juaego is great, really! But I downloaded it yesterday and I have already finished it, 2 days !!! Seriously?? Since, even if it is not enough, you pay for the game unless you had warmed up more than your head to get a little more history, I do not know why they can make the character level up, with novel 11 me montruo fonal and end . At the moment seen the seen is not worth paying 5 and peak for the evoland2, if the same thing happens bad thieves

I was surprised to discover this game, which would almost dovni figure as his inspirations are numerous. Get ready for an express return in your early childhood with a lot of clins to the games that have rocked us: Final Fantasy, Zelda and so many others. A funny pope, with action and sometimes even a bit of self-sacrifice, a beautiful retrospective of the world of gaming that you have to discover without waiting. Small Be soft though, a bit short but at bottom this first opus d'Evoland is well worth these 5 paintings. I highly recommend it.
