Management games are totally my buzz. While they are oft likewise complicated for my wee brain, I nonetheless tend to bask them peculiarly if they are good. Combining it alongside a satirical storey for a JRPG together alongside the simplicity of a Kairosoft together with you lot may accept a winner.
You play equally a immature murphy inheriting his dead grandfather's weapon shop. His greedy line of piece of job concern partner has given you lot the chore to revive it spell giving him nearly of your proceeds. The storey itself is uncomplicated but the means it parodies popular civilisation equally good equally video games is good. Potato puns are abound equally murphy incarnations of famous video game characters serve equally the customers of your humble weapon shop. The storey volition teach nonsensical at times but it's simply at that spot to give you lot a usage to advance through the game.
The management means of this game is essentially similar to Kairosoft's Game Dev Story. You accept murphy blacksmiths whose stats, temperaments together with specialty demand to command past times grooming them together with letting them rest. Different weapons tin survive created alongside their stats depending on the chosen blacksmith to develop them. Research needs to survive done inward lodge to develop novel weapons. There is an inward game contender for the best weapon at the terminate of the year. You tin say that the game is inspired past times Game Dev Story.
As I said, the game's trace is inward its simplicity. You don't teach the hundreds of stats that are abundant inward management games. Weapons you lot arts and crafts tin accept iii uncomplicated stats at the start summation simply about modifiers. Heroes who buys your wares typically prefer 1 or two stats. Warriors desire strength, thieves desire agility together with archers honey accuracy. Managing your blacksmith, assigning them to the right stations together with powering them upward at the right fourth dimension is substitution inward forging the legendary weapon that a hero volition buy. Great weapons are needed equally heroes tend to purchase at a higher toll depending on the weapons. Earning coin is also the substitution to staying afloat equally the blacksmiths you lot utilize demand to teach paid monthly else your store volition become bankrupt.
At its base, the game is fun together with uncomplicated plenty to survive enjoyed equally a start entry to management simulators much similar Kairosoft games. Unfortunately, the experience is severely hampered past times the translation of the controls to the Switch. All of the managing of your blacksmiths volition accept to survive done through the Switch command stick together with the H5N1 button. Even controlling it through the behave upon hide feels bad. This makes the experience clunky together with the fact that it was non optimized for the Switch is apparent. This makes an otherwise proficient weapon store simulator plough into passable.
Pros
- Competent management game alongside uncomplicated mechanics similar Game Dev Story.
- The murphy puns together with murphy based storey is cute.
Cons
- Controlling the game is clunky together with dampens the overall experience.
Overall Score: 6/10
