Pylon
Adventure into mysterious lands, battle dangerous monsters and collect heaps of epic loot! Explore the world of Pylon, a classic and robust Action RPG! Enjoy fluid combat, diverse abilities and a variety of expansive environments packed with creatures, treasure and more... Pylon fuses lightning fast Hack 'n Slash combat with tactical gameplay. Switch between three different classes, all with the same character. Or, create a hybrid class and customize it with a wide array of special combat skills and abilities, then upgrade them! Equip and wield a variety of Weapons and Armor, each with different uses in gameplay. Duel-wield wands and swords, heft a shield or smash enemies with huge maces! Socket magical armors with powerful gems loaded with countless combinations of bonuses and enhancements. Pylon is a story-driven, fantasy ARPG. Take up arms as reluctant mercenary Jane as she follows questionable demands from Neznarf, an aged scholar bent on recovering a powerful artifact. The adventure begins outside Picador's Parish, a small hovel of artisans and peasants. Resting in wilderness surrounding the Parish, ancient stone Pylons sit untouched as bygone relics of a lost age, until now... Pylon is supported for Touch Devices, Game Controllers, and Mouse and Keyboard. We recommend using the controller set-up for maximum enjoyability!

Literally doesn't even work
I installed the trial and opened up the game. There was no audio, already not a good sign. I clicked new game and after watching screens go by about pick-pocketing and a stolen book the game just crashes. I tried multiple times, same result. Pure garbage... which is a shame because the pictures looked enticing.
MoreGreat hack and slash
Great hack and slash game good graphics and gameplay. And finally a good game that doesn't charge you for every upgrade. Frame rate suffers on Surface RT when real time shadows are enabled but I disabled shadows and the frame rate is solid. I did find that the saves do not sync between machines.
MoreGood Game!
Good graphics, good controller support, haven't noticed any frame drops (slow downs), its a paid app but I haven't experienced IAP so totally worth it. (especially for the $2.50 tag) I am happy with my purchase and am glad there are some well developed apps coming to windows rt. The only things I could ask for is some type of multiplayer support even if its just co op and different character selections would be nice but I know there is the different tech tree's that compensate for that. I haven't played a lot but it reminds me of a mix of Diablo 2, Torchlight 2, and LOL. Like I said a $2.50 well spent.
MoreStill having save issues
This is a review update since installing the new game update. I have lowered my rating by two stars. The game itself is wonderful. Repeatedly having to replay territories and bosses I have already completed due to failure of this game to save is completely unacceptable for a game that had to be purchased. I do not like losing my gems and XP, let alone my legendary items. I save the game three times before shutting down, and I still have data loss. About ready to call this a waste of money!
MoreBlacksmith
Amazing fun game and a time killer! One problem the Blacksmith doesn't work until then I'll look towards the future! 5 Stars, but please fix the Blacksmith cause I know there is potential in this great game!!!!😊
MoreGreat Game with a few issues
I have not been able to talk to the smith in the town... and I have had the same issue with gems dropping from slots/slot number changing. I am thoroughly enjoying the game besides those two things, I'm sure these issues will be resolved soon. :)
MoreAwsome game ... Awsome support
I love this game ... it has really good graphics and good playability ... i had a problem getting the game to run and customer service got me up and running FAST
MoreWorth it
Much, much better than The Harvest. Fluid and frequent combat, lots of customizable abilities, and colorful graphics. Menus are quick to use and loading is snappy. My only knock is that you have to tap items to pick them up. Particularly on a large, heavy Surface Pro, this is an annoyance and breaks the pace. It should just auto grab like the gold. Its a great game for $5, and as of June 17th 2013, the best games Ive found on the Windows store yet, alongside Great Big War Game and Blazblue
MoreGreat ARPG!!!
Very much enjoying it, using Surface Pro with touch. Unfortunate that there is no demo, as I think many would buy after trying it. Feels very polished compared to many games in the store.
MoreLike this game
Game is a fine RPG, but I am getting glitcy controller movement with mouse and the game does freeze if you go to map sometimes. other then that I am enjoying game, look forward to updates.
