Red Sword

Fun game that you can play offline which is nice. Unlike most games like this there are next to no ads which is amazing too. Gameplay is a little repetitive but playing in small doses is possible and easy to do. The enemy graphics are more cute than dated and I like how you can have a ton of enemies on screen. Skills are really cool and diverse and they allow do some fun builds.Honestly the only issues I have are quality of life problems. The tutorial is a little lacking so it took a while to figure out small things. The first big “holy crap” moment was realizing you can hold the screen to attack instead of having to tap it. Another tip I found out later is you attack faster on the ground than in the air. Gear could be a little more diverse and buffed so it feels like equipping something other than boosting attack is worth it. At the end of runs any left over gold you don’t spend it kind of useless so it’d be nice to have the left over do something a little more than buying items you don’t need for the tiny amounts of XP to go into skills. Durning battle it would be good to have the bosses number at the beginning displayed as opposed to only the end. It would allow for a little more foresight. At the end of battle screen you can check to see the damage you’ve done with skills vs regular attack but it would be nice to have that information for all individual skills to see what should be swapped out. These are all mainly quality of life things that aren’t that big a deal but would be nice to have. Definitely a fun game and worth messing around with.

I don’t review games often, but I’ve really enjoyed this game and have played it almost every chance I had a few minutes to kill. Highlights! Advertisements: No forced ADS! Thank you Devs! So far the only ads I’ve seen were for optional free premium currency you get every so often which I gladly take every time it’s offered because I want to support these Devs! Time: You don’t need to dump 30 minutes into this game to feel accomplished, most rounds last for less than 1 minute, at which point you’re either on to the next round or dead and starting over. Progression: I believe this is the same group that made another game I love “Inflation,” the idea is to get as far as you can before you die and then you spend your money and get items or perks you can use in later runs which this game does a great job doing as well!

An Action RPG/Defense hybrid, Red Sword will see you as an invincible flying swords-wizard rapidly carving through packs of monsters that seek to destroy the really big sword you carry with you from battlefield. While they will inevitably succeed, forcing you to return to the beginning, those powers and equipment you retain between runs will see you getting further with every new run. Instead of listening to me, just give the game a shot; it’s stage-based nature is well suited to either breaks or extended playing.
