Nordic Ashes: The Survivors of Ragnarok is the new game from the Spanish studio Noxfall Studios. It’s an enemy hell roguelite (many enemies are coming for us at the same time) based on Norse mythology. We control 3 different characterseach with his signature weapons and abilities. This time I was able to play her Early access en To smoke and I will tell you about my experience with the game.
Nordic Ashes gameplay is extremely fun
The way to play this game, to give you an idea, is practically the same as in vampire survivors. The comparison is inevitable, because although vampire survivors He didn’t invent anything, yes this is the title that promoted this style of play in industry. To illustrate the ignorant a little, how to play these games is based on taking a character around a map where we automatically attack while surrounded by enemies. In the process, we improve our character, which allows us to withstand more waves of enemies. Giving us that satisfaction that keeps us playing and playing.
As expected, the game of Nordic ashes it’s extremely fun. There is a pretty good variety of enemies, each with their attacks and special powers. Also, some have very particular ways of moving to make things a little more difficult for us. On another side, there are bosses that have more life than others enemies and endowed with very special abilities, they can even have their own combat arenas.
As for the cards, we have the 9 kingdoms of norse mythology, which we will unlock as we complete them with at least 1 character. Each has its own setting and characteristic enemies. Also say that during the games we will see some altars on the map where we can buy the object that is there. Others are challenges to eliminate x number of enemies in the area and in others we will have to give some of our health to activate them.
The artistic section
The visual effects and art style of Nordic ashes they are very well made. They give the whole game a personality of its own. the characters are very well detailed and designed to be funenemies also benefit from a good level of detail and quite decent animations.
The environments are also very beautiful. and loaded with details. Without a doubt, this is a very good take for a game of this style, which each time offers us more polished and visually pleasing graphics without neglecting the gameplay.
Things Nordic Ashes needs to improve
Nordic ashes it’s in Early Access, so it has things to improve, How is normal. One of them is its difficulty, which basically has an extra point for its balance. Some enemies are created to be much more powerful than others, so far so good, but there are times when you need x object which gives you 1% more damage to be victorious, if you are not lucky enough to get it you will keep dying over and over again.
This is the biggest problem the community is facing right now. haveis the feeling of not being able to do anything in certain situations and it’s something you definitely need to watch.
It can also get a bit repetitive as the characters only have 3 weaponsso in each game the progression is similar. Although it is true that the games are fast, but in practice they are the same. We do the same with different funds.
In short, Nordic Ashes is…
Nordic ashes a very fun roguelite. Obviously, being in early access needs to improve issues such as balance or variety of weapons and add some things. Other than that, the experience is always positiveHe knows how to give you the characteristic satisfaction of this type of game, he knows how to hook you and make the hours pass. It is definitely a good experience which we hope will improve a lot in the future.
