Solasta: Crown of the Magister is a turn-based RPG set in a medieval fantasy world a thousand years after a magical cataclysm. Your party of 4 heroes have to contend with baddies seeking to reopen a rift and overrun the world of Solasta itself. The game uses the Dungeons and Dragons SRD 5.1 Ruleset to be faithful to a tabletop experience. That means less to me as I'm not a tabletop gamer, I felt getting food was a chore for the travelling between locations one will be doing, the differences to other computer RPGs didn't impact my pleasure.

There is a great range of vistas for one to eliminate enemies by spell or by sword in (I'm into sorcery myself). From the dungeons to lava infested forests to the SF like scenes close to the rift. The game is well implemented and friendly to play. I particularly appreciated being able to save in the middle of battles!

My playthrough was on an easy setting, on more difficult settings crafting and factional alignment would be more critical I feel. I muddled through. With the right strategy the battles were easier but still felt worthwhile.

I'll probably get the expansions and replay on a harder setting.
