Hello Again!
First of all, glad to hear that your game got in top 10, even thou, in my opinion the game deserved being in top 5 and the end result, which is Version 1.0. really shows, why the thematic and visual aspect of the game is the winner. I loved, loved the story so much, the design of the monsters and the patrol system, everything in this game is pure mythological and mystical glory! I loved it. I really wanted to enjoy myself and that's the reason why I did not record the game, because, you know, playthrough style is different from actually enjoying the game on your spare time and yes, thank you very much for the amazing game. Looking forward to seeing more and soon! Good Luck!
Suspenseful and glorious!
