It has been a while! April has been a massive month for gaming. Between Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Tempest Rising, Oblivion Remaster, and Promise Mascot Agency, there is much gaming time on just those four titles. Like many others, I am completely enthralled with Expedition 33, though it’ll take me some time to complete it. I like it so much that I’ve been neglecting other games in the review queue… and Endless RPG Untold Adventures is no exception!
So yeah, I’ve been a little inactive on here lately, and I apologize for that. Let’s start with today’s episode of Scar Tries: the incredibly original show where I talk about a game I have been looking into. I don’t consider these full reviews as that’s not what this series is for, but it’s a first look into the game to see if I want to keep playing. Endless RPG is one of those titles that stands out with its unique features, and more people should try it out to experience its distinct gameplay.
At its heart, Endless RPG is a randomly generated RPG, a little like Battle Brothers, where you explore the world and carry out missions with your growing army of adventurers. Surprisingly, it delivers even as an Early Access game in its current state. There’s a lot of depth behind that enormous open world, and it doesn’t feel like sacrificing it for a ‘bigger world.’ This isn’t Starfield.
One of my favorite things about Endless RPG is the relationship system. It’s not just between your party members, but also between your crew and the towns you visit. These relationships influence everything—from small dialogue scenes to your party’s actual combat performance. I have to commend the dynamic way the world forms its relationships and how it feels like a living ecosystem. For all the games out there that claim to have a world that feels alive, there are few that manage it. Endless RPG is one of those good examples.
You’ve got your standard leveling with attribute points and a surprisingly deep magic system with tons of crossover potential. There are many options to tailor your party and lots of freedom to experiment as you see fit. This freedom empowers you to try out different strategies, and while some may work better than others, you always have the chance to respec your characters easily enough with potions.
Don’t be afraid to mess around with the game’s systems, as mistakes aren’t punished too severely. I also love the human moments with the characters. You can get to know each other in camp or resting, and it helps humanize them. Battle Brothers did a great job at making players care about their ragtag bunch of mercenaries, and Endless RPG pulls off something similar.
The game still needs work, and the developer is constantly adding to it. Endless RPG is a passion project for him, and it clearly shows! His dedication and passion for the game reassure me about its future. As first impressions go, I came away from my short time in Endless RPG keen to try out more. It might need to wait a while, though… I have a lot of other games to try first!
