Ash of Gods: Redemption

Ash of Gods: Redemption looks and sounds the part; it's a beautiful thing to behold, easily matches its most obvious inspiration in this regard and will obviously be very tempting to fans of the genre – and especially The Banner Saga – as a result. However, beneath this shiny surface, it's a mess. A combination of badly implemented and nonsensical mechanics, a poor story, terrible (and often juvenile) writing and a constant desire to stomp its players into the dirt make it a real pain to struggle through.

For those who just want some quality turn-based combat to mull over, this might not be the best option because even if the combat works well it can feel clunky and uninspired. All in all, Ash of Gods: Redemption is a stunning game with a great soundtrack that tells some interesting stories, but it's not a tactical masterpiece and it tries to do just a bit too much for its own good.

Si bien el apartado gráfico ha sido incluso mejorado, y la adaptación del control ha resultado satisfactoria, los tirones y su pobre localización han hecho palidecer un juego donde gran parte de su peso se encuentra en la narración textual. Si lo jugamos en inglés y dejamos los tirones en segundo plano, puesto que no afectan a la jugabilidad, disfrutaremos de un juego muy elaborado y con un delicioso sabor grimdark.
