Bound By Flame review
As anyone who struggled through Orphen on the PS2 will tell you, the first RPG of a hardware generation is rarely an impressive experience. The vast amount of content that needs to be created for your average dungeon-crawler also makes them quite rare in the first year of any console.

Bound by boredom
Its no dark souls beater, grapics are ok not great but ok, its got solid gameplay but for me it was too repetitive with the lack of fighting moves so you find yourself constantly repeating the same moves over and over!

Bound By Flame review – daft souls
A Frankenstein's monster of other people's ideas, that if not for the sleazy script would be laughable in its desperation to include every fantasy cliché imaginable.
Pros:
- The crafting system is excellent and the skill tree element of character customisation is nicely varied
- OK background graphics, despite the poor facial animation
Cons:
- A weak plot and a terrible script, with a very uncomfortable attitude towards women
- Repetitive and unoriginal combat
- Bland environments and useless computer-controlled allies

Bound by Flame
Flames aren't the only binding thing in Bound by Flame . This shallow, awkward action RPG is an exercise in limitations, as one might guess by the introductory character creator.

Bound By Flame Review
Bound By Flame likes RPG tropes so much, it features every single one of them. They're all here, including choice-driven narrative and karma-determined character appearance. It can be justifiably described as the poorer cousin of almost every RPG that's been released in the last 15 years.

PS4 Review: Bound by Flame
Bound by Flame has its share of issues, it's clearly a low-budget game and it wasn't optimized for next-gen but regardless of what version you play, there are some good ideas and although they don't always pan out that well, what does work works well.
