Review
Class of Heroes 1 & 2: Complete Edition brings back the old-school dungeon-crawling experience with a tad of modernization for returning veterans and a sprinkle of nostalgia for series newcomers. As with any compendium of classics, it preserves the charm of its era, showcasing improved graphics and smoothed-out gameplay mechanics. The character customization and party dynamics stand out, providing a layer of strategy that can satisfy the number crunchers and role-playing enthusiasts. However, new players may find the journey through its corridors a bit dated and tedious, as some mechanics haven't aged as gracefully as the pixel art. The level grind might test your patience unless you're a devoted fan of retro RPG repetition. Furthermore, interface challenges remind us how far we’ve come in terms of user experience designs in modern titles. Overall, 'Class of Heroes: Complete Edition' offers a double dose of dungeon diving that can be either a delightful romp down memory lane or a sobering reminder of the genre's evolutionary path.Background information
Critics often view the 'Class of Heroes' series as a tribute to the roots of dungeon crawler RPGs, and 'Class of Heroes 1 & 2: Complete Edition' delivers exactly that. As seen in other reviews, there is a consensus that these titles offer a certain level of depth and complexity particularly well-suited for fans of the genre, while newcomers might be turned off by the steep learning curve and the intricacies of its systems. The community’s sentiment generally skews positive, citing its faithfulness to the original material, and reviewers appreciate the added polish that comes with a remastered collection. However, the updates could be seen as insufficient for those hoping for a full modern overhaul.Screenshots
