There are multiple areas and environments to explore with oodles of enemies, boss fights and NPCs to interact with. The developer has clearly put a lot of work into drawing this game. The cover picture of this game has quite a warm friendly look to it and it’s a shame this style could not be translated here. This of course is not a bad thing for a first-time developer but it does fail to give Pixelot its own unique identity. The graphics are a standard pixel design. The story is not everything but for an RPG it certainly helps. As a result, I really lacked any connection to the plot. Who knows, maybe it’s an acquired taste but it just didn’t seem to fit. The developer appears to be going for a tongue in cheek approach with some self-aware jabs at the story but the language a lot of the characters use feels like slang you would hear from teenagers, as opposed to heroes in a fantasy realm. The humour fell a bit flat for me though. There are a lot of NPCs to talk to, many of which have some witty banter to exchange with you. The land of Pixelot is under siege from the darkness and it’s up to my wife and a band of recruit-able heroes to run around, collect the six crystals and save the day. After all, she is a hero in real life so why not make her a hero in a video game. I opted to create my wife in pixel form as that’s what I do. You begin the game by creating your own pixelated hero and choosing a class from the usual range of Paladin, Ranger, Ninja. Does Pixelot have the heart to win over fans? Let’s find out.
Playing a lot like an RPG from the old days with a simple pixel graphic style. Pixelot is an RPG released onto Steam by a new developer.
