Hoplite Review #TapTapExplorerS1
1K View2022-07-28Hoplite is a retro style rouguelike dungeon crawler RPG where you as a brave knight has to descend in to the chaotic underworld, defeat the enemies and discover the golden fleece.
Gameplay wise, the game is as simple as it gets. You can move around the dungeon floor by tapping on tiles, you can see the enemies range by tapping on them. You have to get close to your enemies by evading their attacks and then defeat them by either attacking them, throwing your spear at them or pushing them into the lava with your shield. As the number of enemies on a floor increases, the complexity increases and you have to think before you make your move. The graphics and the music are reminiscent of retro games and it gives you a wave of nostalgia. There is also an option for legacy graphics which makes the graphics even more retro.
The only cons I could find was the fact that it might get a little repetitive after sometime and that a lot of true RPG elements are missing even though the game is advertised as an RPG. However if you like rouguelike games, you'll certainly love this one. Certainly one of the hidden gems out there, give it whirl I say :)

MY gaming experience #TapTapExplorerS1
Hoplite is an interesting Roguelike and strategy game, in which the player is encouraged to use his best strategies on the field.
Despite being somewhat simple, it is a game that manages to entertain the player for a while.
Regarding technical aspects:
-The gameplay is pretty cool and fun once you get the hang of it, the roguelike elements help with the diversity of the gameplay, but it gets boring with time.

A roguelike dungeon crawler
Hoplite is a tile-based pixel roguelike dungeon crawler. It's a light weight game which can be easily picked up and played whenever you have some free time. The gameplay itself doesn't have much animations or special effects, it being lightweight, but it serves its purpose. The mechanics are simple enough to understand but hard to master. You have to estimate enemy movements and work accordingly. especially liked the music, it was great. You don't level up here but each round you can use the altar for specific benefits. Although it is free, gameplay beyond depth 16, unlocking achievements, more altar choices and a challenge mode are locked behind a one-time IAP.

It like chess. But a lot less complex and have addictive tactical strategy! (Hoplite full review)
Hoplite makes you take strategic decisions on when and where to move your single character by predicting the moves of computer-controlled characters. This, though tricky, is quite easy once you properly and neatly understand the game mechanics. It's doesn't take too much time to complete the dungeons. It would be nice to be able to save progress at certain depths (maybe there is, I've only gotten down to 16 so far), so when you need to stop playing you don't lose progress. Enemy types abide by a strict set of rules and the more you play the better you can predict what the right moves may be, but the random boards, increasing difficulty, and customizable skills that you unlock as you play. There is Some challenging achievements, Overall i enjoy the old school upgrade system.
