๐ฎ Game Review: Grand Guilds
Rating system 1 - 5 ๐ง
Combat: ๐ง
Combat felt repetitive and lacked the depth needed to stay engaging. The card-based mechanics had potential but quickly became stale, especially in longer sessions.
Story: ๐ง๐ง๐ง๐ง
The story is the clear highlight here. Grand Guilds delivers a genuinely compelling narrative with strong character moments and emotional stakes. If only the gameplay matched the writing!
Aesthetics: ๐ง๐ง๐ง
Visually, the game has a charming, stylized look that fits its world. The UI is functional but not always intuitive. Sound design and music were decent but unmemorable.
Replayability: ๐ง
Once the story is complete, there's little reason to return. The combat system doesn't evolve much, and there's not enough variety or incentive to replay missions.
Additional Thoughts:
The Nintendo Switch port suffers from serious bugsโsome maps bordered on unplayable due to glitches and crashes. These technical issues really hurt what could have been a much more enjoyable experience.
If you're here for the story, you might find something to love. But for most players, the frustrating gameplay and poor porting make Grand Guilds a tough sell.
