Nostalgia – Swords and Sandals 2 Redux Review

I played this game as a kid and I’m really happy it’s in the App Store today! I think overall this has never been a 5 star game so I can’t really expect it to be one today but I would definitely like to see big fixes and balancing fixes. I like the new skill system that’s introduced but it’s overshadowed by the fact that your progression of skill points can’t keep up with the gladiators in the arena unless you know metas. This game wasn’t really intended to be “hard” as much as it is “luck based” but I’m over here dumping stats into my attack still and I still come up with %30 chances to hit endgame. The daily quest mechanic is really nice however it’s annoying to click through the day in order to access it. There should really just be a button to access the daily quest so we can quickly get random skill points when we are struggling. Overall high scores could be presented by how many days it takes for people to beat the arena that way there isn’t necessarily a punishment for going on a quest but you should be striving not to go on them.
