ELEX

ELEX is an open world role-playing game where science fiction is mixed with fantasy. Magalan survived the catastrophe, and the source of strength and at the same time misfortune became a substance that gives opportunities and deprives humanity. The world is dangerous: from the first steps the hero encounters opponents from whom it is easier to escape. There are three factions with their own views and techniques, and joining one of them determines development. In addition to battles, there is a jetpack, exploration, quests and free movement across regions. It’s worth mentioning separately about the start: the hero is weak in the first hours, and almost any enemy is more dangerous than him, so survival is more important than heroism. In addition to battles, there is a jetpack, exploration of regions and faction quests. Technologies are distributed between the parties, and joining one of them determines the available equipment. The development is detailed, with skill branches and characteristics. The design is uneven, but the world feels dangerous and the decisions meaningful, which makes the game memorable for those who enjoy challenging RPGs. Factions are in conflict with each other, so neutrality is difficult, especially in the later stages. Weather and time of day affect the behavior of opponents, so it is better to postpone some of the attacks. The parties are at odds, so it becomes more difficult to stay away every hour. The time of day and weather change the behavior of opponents, so the sortie is sometimes postponed. The game is known for its difficult start and character, but it gives a rare sense of freedom. For those who are not afraid of difficult role-playing games, the project is suitable.
