About

The Age of Decadence is an isometric, turn-based, single-player role-playing game set in a low magic, post-apocalyptic fantasy world, inspired by the fall of the Roman Empire. The game features a detailed skill-based character system, multiple skill-based ways to handle quests, choices & consequences, and extensive dialogue trees.
Traditionally, many fantasy RPGs are about killing things, clearing up dungeons, and being a hero. Now, there is nothing wrong with mindless fun and wish fulfillment, but we serve a different meal here.

    Age of Decadence is a challenging, yet excellent RPG. With a huge focus on story and depth, it gives you a wide variety of choices to make, ones that have actual impacts on the story. Not only that, the combat is easy to learn but can be incredibly tactical. This is a game well worth playing.

    Age of Decadence is an RPG to its core. It offers the player a wealth of choices, many of them carrying lofty consequences along with them. The core design element of player choice transcends simple dialogue choices, as players can progress through the game in a variety of styles. Many games offer up the illusion of choice while failing to actually deliver, but Age of Decadence serves up difficult and tangible crossroads with no looking back.

    These gameplay issues are, for me, the most offputting. Everything else seems in place; decent graphics, OK music, reasonable lore and good combat. I just get my hackles up in an RPG when I walk around a city and click on a door only to be told ‘the door is locked’. And I’m a thief. With some lockpicks my guild master gave me. Disappointing.

    In its current state it's unpolished at best, but has some potential; potential that, sadly, seems like it has been denied. It shouldn't be avoided, however, as it would be average and, potentially, even enjoyable with these issues ironed out - but it currently feels more of a bore to play, with little to keep interest from tediously running back and forth because it couldn't be bothered to mention where an NPC might be.

    Ja, die Animationen sind schwach und die Spielwelt ist so steril, dass es die Stimmung in den Gassen trübt. Aber falls euch innere Werte und vor allem je nach Klasse und Charakterentwicklung tatsächlich unterschiedliche Erlebnisse wichtig sind, solltet ihr diese über Jahre gereifte Reise mit ihren dreizehn möglichen Enden antreten. Viel Spaß zwischen Scharlatanen, Tyrannen und Assassinen!

    The Age of Decadence è un grande gioco di ruolo, c'è poco da stare a discuterne. Probabilmente non ne troverete un altro che offra una tale libertà di approccio giocando da soli. La campagna non è lunghissima, ma la quantità di cose da fare e i modi in cui farle lo rendono rigiocabile più e più volte. Certo, il fatto che sia una produzione amatoriale è abbastanza evidente, ma se riuscirete a soprassedere su alcuni limiti tecnici e qualche problema realizzativo, vi godrete un gioiello di rara bellezza.
