![]() ![]() Don’t worry – the only thing real world money can get you in Spellbreak are new cosmetics for your chosen mage. Often little more than ruins or spiralling towers, there’s nothing that stands out as being especially memorable in the Hollow Lands which serve as the backdrop to Spellbreak’s bombastic arcane battles – a disappointing revelation considering the otherwise sublime visual design glimpsed elsewhere. Where the visual presentation takes something of a hit is in the lack of variety in the various landmarks and structures that are dotted across the battlefield. Boasting a gorgeous art style that doesn’t look like a million miles away from the cartoony and finesse-steeped designs of Blizzard’s World of Warcraft, Spellbreak is easy on the eyes to say the least – and runs extraordinarily smoothly to match. In Spellbreak, these chests have items which not only improve base stats such as your movement speed and casting cooldowns, but they can also provide game-changing abilities such as invisibility, teleportation, the ability to fly and more in a bid to keep things decidedly more spicy and unpredictable than they might otherwise be.Īnother one of the most endearing aspects of Spellbreak is simply just how it looks. ![]() Dotted around each battlefield are loot chests which much like other examples of the battle royale genre, serve to dish out items of increasing quality to those who are lucky enough to find them.ĭistinguishing Spellbreak further still from its genre stablemates is its eye-opening art style. In addition to the numerous spells that are at your disposal, Spellbreak also provides a variety of other ways for eager wizards to even the score. Because of this system and the aforementioned spell cooldowns, Spellbreak impresses a more intriguingly cautious approach upon players than they might otherwise be inclined to take in other battle royale efforts. ![]() Indeed in Spellbreak, knowing where you can retreat to in order to consume a life-saving potion is as crucial as having an unerring aim with a devastating fireball spell. Rather than just automatically scooping up chunks of armor and health to replenish yourself, each potion and armor shard must be manually applied as a specific action – leaving you something of a sitting duck for a second or two in the process. Speaking of being vanquished, Spellbreak handles healing in and regeneration in a similarly considered fashion. Spellbreak rewards industrious players who combine different elemental spells to great effect. Simply put, kicking out a spell combination will leave you vulnerable for a few crucial seconds – which could be all the enemy requires to vanquish your spell-chucker in short order. As such, though Spellbreak certainly rewards those players who are keen to throw together outlandish spell combinations in order to get ahead, the appropriate mana restrictions and spell cooldowns help to keep folks honest. ![]()
