Now it’s down to the player to free humanity from the yoke of subjugation. Deevs, grisly monsters which thirst for human blood have snatched power and now hold sway over mankind. The Army of Darkness has retrieved its ancient powers and now threatens the humans’ freedom. The main mechanics of the game include melee combat, puzzle solving and exploration, fighting the army of darkness in the ancient lands of Khunirath. The game tells a story about the epic battles of the eponymous mythological hero Garshasp. The trick to beating the boss wasn't to figure out any sort of strategy, but to figure out where I was allowed to move.Garshasp: The Monster Slayer is a hack and slay action adventure game that is based on the Persian mythology, which contains some of mankind’s oldest and most profound myths. Further, if I tried to dodge toward the screen in some parts of the arena, I was blocked in my attempt to do that as well. The monster was much bigger than I was, and it was obvious that I should be able to run between his legs when he attacked me. I first noticed these in my first boss battle, not five minutes into the game. These are usually fine, but they prevent you from exploring as much as you'd like to, and they make a few of the platforming sections a lot harder than they need to be. For example, there's no camera control, which leaves you at the mercy of whatever camera angles the developers chose for each screen. Most of the game's problems can be traced directly to the fact that the developers couldn't fix all of the problems that 3D graphics tend to introduce. There are plenty of similar-yet-better-made games available from bigger studios, and Garshasp is not much fun in comparison. But "from a studio of this size" is the key phrase here. The product they ended up with is great for showing off their skills, and in fact it's one of the most technically impressive games I've seen from a studio of this size. In trying to make a game that looks like God of War instead of Super Mario World, Dead Mage bit off more than they could chew. But all of those games share something that Garshasp does not: two-dimensional graphics. Of course, an indie game can be just as polished as a blockbuster-the usual suspects in this category are Braid, Limbo, World of Goo, Super Meat Boy, etc. Unfortunately, though, the studio lacked either the funding or the technical expertise to polish the gameplay experience, and, as a result, the game probably isn't worth your time or your $20. You can tell they really poured their hearts into every aspect of Garshasp, from the storyline to the mythological enemies to the combat system.
In fact, only about twenty-five pitched in overall. Dead Mage is a true underdog the developer's core team for this game was comprised all of nine people.
