CD Projekt RED, renowned for creating the acclaimed titles Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, is also the brains behind GOG.com. This digital distribution platform is a haven for PC gamers, offering a plethora of deals and freebies. One of the latest offers that has caught the eye of the gaming community is the free giveaway of Mordheim: City of the Damned.
Mordheim: City of the Damned – A Tactical RPG Gem
Developed by Rogue Factor and published by Focus Home Interactive, Mordheim: City of the Damned first made waves in 2015 on PC, followed by its release on Xbox and PlayStation in 2016. This tactical RPG is a digital interpretation of the classic tabletop game Mordheim from Games Workshop. As a player, you’re thrust into the role of leading “warbands into bloody and lethal skirmishes.”
The game garnered a respectable Metacritic score of 74, indicating a solid, enjoyable gaming experience. A review by God is a Geek applauded the game: “A brilliant strategy game that asks you to think carefully about every decision, pushing your tactical buttons in every conceivable way.” However, Hardcore Gamer pointed out its shortcomings: “It needs a little more technical polish and a much smoother learning curve to be considered for real mass-market appeal, but Mordheim: City of the Damned is a rewarding game for the right player.”
User Reception and Critical Acclaim
While critics have had mixed views, the user reception on Steam has been predominantly positive, with a 72% ‘Mostly Positive’ review score. Many players have praised the game’s challenging nature, making it a rewarding experience for those who dive into its depths.
