Stoneshard aims to fill a niche – open-world, survival rogue-like – and appears to be on the right track. Its most glaring deficit is the lack of content, but a prospective buyer should consider Stoneshard’s many extant and promised merits against its current missing content.

    It is worth pointing out that game saves can only be done at the tavern. The dev says this is a game engine limitation and will not change. So be prepared to lose progress in 30 minute chunks and do lots of running back and forth. This lends to the hardcore feel. For others it is a big nope.

    In this stage it's buggy,invisible walls and imo not worth the buy

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.

    I know its a pretty minor point but its not a game engine limitation but a systems engine limitation. The way they procedurally spawn content makes it impossible to allow world save states without them being massive in size. I just didn't want people to start on a "this engine sucks!" etc.

    This is one of the things I like about the game. I hope it doesn't get removed.

    Save thing is an issue despite sounding like a good idea it really needs a better way to save more frequently.
