Storyline
"Het recht heeft gefaald. De crimineel, de gestoorde, de lastige en de ongemakkelijke; allen worden over de zee geworpen naar het gulzige eiland Lukatt, wiens kusten niets vrij laten. Zondaar of heilige, jij bent een van deze verschoppelingen, en het is daar, in een donkere cel aan de koude kust van dat eiland, waar je eindelijk de keel van het lot zult doorsnijden en je eigen toekomst in handen zult nemen.
Verzamel een bende misdadigers en vergetenen, vergeef hun overtredingen of verstoot ze, gebruik ze als werkpaarden of koester hun vertrouwen, slacht je vijanden af of spaar ze, laat de overwonnenen vrij of zet ze in dienst. Vind een manier om te ontsnappen aan het onontkoombare, of vind een manier om het naar je hand te zetten."

Often in games like this, the writing is really campy and not subtle in even the most remote sense. However, the dialogue and writing here is top notch. The unique characters have their own motivations and aren't just stereotypical archetypes. There's one time where a random character is unsure what to do because his buddy "wants to lay with ". If executed poorly, this whole interaction would have been eyeroll inducing but, again, the character wasn't a gay stereotype.Regarding the artwork, you can really see the love that was put into it, both sprites and character art alike. Yes, there is some nudity but it's not shoehorned in there. Rather, most of it is organic to what would be expected in "real world" situations. I mean, a poor goblin isn't going to have full plate armor. Either way, it's pixel art so it's not like your going to be playing then SUDDENLY WANG ((*cough* dante's inferno *cough*)).My biggest complaint with the game is that the enemy AI isn't all that smart and it doesn't really differ from character to character. Once you play for a little while, you know how to lead enemies where you want. Doesn't take a tactician to figure out enemy movements. Also, another little complaint is that there are so many map locations that some can feel like busywork, but that's thankfully uncommon enough to not be much of a bother.Other than that, there are so many little things that make the game really fun. You have strongholds that you build up with more characters, the level up and skill system is unique (and requires a little bit of math), the map is expansive, and there's a good amount of lore to be found in all the little nooks and crannies of the various locations.Yes, this is a gay themed game, but I really don't think that should deter anyone. This is an overall fun game that I see myself replaying in the future and would highly recommend for rpg and tactics fans of any kind.
