I recently played Somnolent and honestly I have pretty mixed feelings about it so far. The combat is okay, I like that there is no auto combat in the game, but I did find the dodge to be weird and sometimes you would dodge in the wrong direction, which happened a few times on the dungeon boss causing me to die a few times. There are a lot of visual glitches in the game, lots of flickering when I played and also there is zero voice acting. Also you can't skip in game cinematics. So you are forced to sit through dialogue that may or may not interest you. The game also takes a long time to load at times, and I even had to force quit out of the game at one point because I was stuck on the loading screen when entering the first dungeon.
Which weirdly enough, when I logged back into the game, the game took it as I had completed the dungeon, and wanted me to progress on my story, even though I had not completed it at all. This game is also region locked and you can only play it in the selected GooglePlay account regions, including the US, France, UK, Canada, Netherlands, Russia, Saudi Arabia. So if you're not in those areas, you will have to use a VPN. And considering how many hoops I had to go through just to get this game working and how much trouble the game is to play at the moment, I don't know if it's worth the time. I personally think this game needs to cook more. It could be good. But for now it's not quite there yet.
it's in alpha so I wouldn't be so hard on them
