Elona Mobile 12+

I liked it. Maybe you will too. Very generous for beginners and not so for higher levels. Overall tho, very generous for both.
Combat is a funky mix of that game “Super Hot” then mix that with a turn based strategy. Not a bad idea it works well, you can ether chose to run if you feel like u can’t handle a fight or if your bravely strike fast and hard without any issues. Tutorial wise: the tutorial isn’t terrible but it doesn’t teach the extras. It only teaches you the bare minimum the rest is up to you. Which I don’t mind but this game has a lot of stuff in it and the screen is a bit cluttered. It took me a couple actual irl hours to notice that weapons degrade if not constantly maintained.
Is it P2W? Not really. Theres Gacha but not game breaking or OP gacha it’s just like new teammate gacha or I got a piece of bread or I got this pretty sword. For the record Teamates don’t actually determine if you win a fight or not. They do help you fight battles but if there also not constantly maintained they also will fail. Tho since there isn’t any pvp (at least that I’m aware.) I guess that doesn’t really matter. It’s all PVE. I spent a good amount of hours and I had the best available gear from both markets, NPCs and dungeons and pretty decent stuff but I still couldn’t steamroll enemies.
Which means that this game is doing something right. So far so good. I’d hope to see what this game goes into the future. Both updates and content wise. Keep it up!

Having spent thousands of hours on the PC version of Elona, this is a real nice mobile version of the game with updated graphics, extended tutorial and improved quest tracker. I don’t find this game as pay to win because I’ve had a built a very strong solo character in the PC version and can probably expect that with the mobile version. The start can be very brutal because you’re most likely going to be relying on fast allies and riding a fast ally such as a bike or if it’s possible in this version, a raptor. Hopefully living weapons are also a thing in this version. I’m also excited to experience rocks being thrown at me while playing poorly with instruments and having that instantly kill me which is a hilarious way to die. But enough rambling about Elona, this game is a must play if you like roguelikes and love continually building a character to become an unkillable machine.

PS - there are different quality beds, cooking tools, etc that improve your success rates or skill levels at better rates, you can probably dig this information up on a wiki. Buy or find a fireproof blanket to avoid losing potions and scrolls. Always keep an item to help you escape from danger. The laser gun is a good bread and butter weapon if those exist in the mobile version. Dual wielding is great late game but needs a lot of skill levels to be useful early on.

I like this game a lot. I’ve never played the PC version, but I want to now. There are occasional small translation issues, like NPCs always referring to your character as a man (even when you pick a female gender) and a dog getting called Poppy by its owner but Bobby by its description, but most things are clear enough to be understood. The game requires a fair deal of experimentation— at the start, tapping on all the icons to see what they do; later on, going into random locations on the map, examining items on the ground, etc.— but that’s part of the fun of a roguelike in my opinion. And the logic of this world is just so bizarre, it’s great. I hope they keep adding to it.
