My first 5 minutes:
Why isn't the controller responding? Ah, cursor keys work... wait.. X instead of A button? Back to controller.
Found armor that I can't equip.... in my room, for females. Cloud?!
This castle only got 3 areas and the kings aides are shopkeepers? Wait, I got NO armor on? Its over 100 $ ?
So, outside the castle has architecture as weird as inside.
Oh random encounter..
3 enemies? Woah, they hit for almost 20 % of my health!
I don't have any skills?
Run back inside to heal after winning, at least my bed is free.
Can't afford armor yet, thats still over 100 $ away.
Fiddlesticks... random encounter, barely survied, a disgraced NPC with bad story explanation directly in front of the castle and moving dogs that ALSO trigger fights... that surrounded me by randomly walking while the npc keeps talking.
Dead.

I don't mind hard, some of my favourite games on steam have permadeath. This isn't hard, it's unbalanced.
If you are a fan you might want it. Otherwise there are other games on steam that are more fun in the same price range.

I purchased this game a few years back as I was an avid player of the browser based version. I found out it was on steam and decided to buy it again as I haven't played it in a few years. This game is amazing. The story is quite captivating. I was playing a few other games off and on like diablo iii, destiny, wow etc and I've literally stopped all other gaming activity to try and beat this game again.

Playing angels of fasaria brought back so many good memories and is good enough to keep me locked into the game ignoring everything else at the moment. Man I wish the browser based game would come back as it was one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had.

This game is awesome and has the potential to do exceptionally well. Years later and it is still one of my favorite RPGs of all time. I highly recommend this game.

Several things to keep in mind before you purchase:

1. The game weighs a little heavy on spiritual content and may not be your cup of tea if your not into the idea of heaven, angels etc. The game did fairly well years ago so I doubt that will be an issue for most people.

2. The game uses a lot of RPGMaker game assets. I thought I should mention this as this can be of some concern to players. The graphics are nicely put together, very colorful and well designed in spite of the familiar graphics.

3. The game would benefit from an instructional and even better some type of guide with maps. The game isn't hard at all and the world is intuitive but getting started can be a bit of a challenge if you don't know where to go first. For instance, getting your first companion is as easy as going to the sanctuary in the north part of the map and would make your early journey so much easier if you go there first. The game flows quite well as you level up and build your team but having a guide can help in the early part of the game.
