The idea and objective of the game is spot on. Old school D & D type game play. I wish there was a little less dungeon crawler and at least some intellectual puzzles or needs. Foes become harder and tactics/strategies become necessary. Combat is the core of this game yet it lacks obvious concepts, stun, flash, darkness, etc. Overall the game is fun and combat challenging, but it could be so much more, especially with such a great background storyline.

I have been enjoying it so far. The free mission is good enough to get an understanding of what I can expect in the other episodes. I personally would recommend that individuals also purchase the extra characters because at least some of them will dramatically improve gameplay. I purchased all four in an effort to test which ones I prefer for different play styles. The total cost for the four missions and the four characters is actually quite reasonable.

I'm a sucker for turn-based RPGs, and good ones are really hard to find these days. Heroes of Steel is a welcome exception to this rule, and I'm really excited to see how development continues on future episodes. Gameplay is very intuitive, and in a bit of a departure for the developers, there's an interesting, well-written storyline at play as well. One concern is just that the dialogue takes quite a while to move through. I wonder a bit about replayability in that but overall it's great.
