Cultivation-Themed RPG: Angels of East Review
"Angels of East" is a free-to-play role-playing game (RPG) developed by the Ghost Market Working Group, focusing on the Chinese Xianxia subgenre of cultivation. Players engage in self-development, learning martial arts and mastering one of the Five Elements. While lacking 3D gameplay and visual effects typical of RPGs, it offers a unique gameplay experience akin to city management or visual novel sims like "Infinite Cultivation" or "Golden Market."
The game immerses players in a fantasy world where martial artists enhance physical and spiritual skills, featuring magic and diverse character classes, builds, and abilities. Despite its non-3D format, Angels of East offers a grid-based, turn-based battle system, adding a fresh perspective. However, the game's Mandarin text, unbalanced gameplay elements, and minor bugs detract from the overall experience.
