The Last Flame

January 9, 2025 - Reading time: ~1 minute - Category: game library project

I never do this, but The Last Flame was recommended on my Steam front page, and I bought it on impulse. I've never played an autobattler, but I like the concept - simple gameplay focused around builds and items instead of fast-paced reflexes. I've done one run so far and enjoy it.The premise is this: You start out with 1 hero, moving through the map Slay the Spire-style, and every round you recruit a hero and gather items and currency to improve your heroes. Each her has an active and passive ability, and you need to mix and match your items and heroes to synchronize with each other.

It's deceptively simple, I can tell there's tons of room for build variety and mixing up a ton of different heroes. I'm not sure this is one I'll get a ton of hours out of, but it's a nice little timewaster and something I can play on the side while I work.

Verdict: Timewaster

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, history, and anything else I find interesting. 

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
Reviews, where I post longer-form writeups
Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
