Description: Once upon a time, when only acres of empty lands, vast oceans and gods existed, the Supreme God realized this world was too boring, thus He decided to create all species – including Humans. Fearing that Humans could not survive in the harsh nature of the early days, the God of Courage – Gennaios – had stolen the sacred fire and bestowed upon man. Enraged with this action, the Supreme God decided to deprive Gennaios of all power and set a condition, which is if Gennaios can overcome all challenges, he can once again regain his old power and return to being a God. When participating in the game, the player will play Gennaios, and with the Sword of Darkness and Sword of Light given by an old friend, the player must conquer all challenges that are set.
Review: God’s Challenge is an action game in which you will be swinging your sword against a variety of enemies and even some boss fights (4 in total). I have to say I just wasn’t a fan of this game at all. The action/gameplay is the worst part for sure, it just feels so cold, empty and repetitive. While I did enjoy some of the boss fights they are just a small part of the game and to be fair there isn’t a whole lot to this game at all. I do think it has some good potential overall, but it just hasn’t been realised yet. If you picked this game up for mere pennies in a bundle you might appreciate it a lot more than I did paying the £7.19 full price. I just wish this game wasn’t so action-based, or alternatively a lot better at it.
