Gameplay

In Flint: Treasure of Oblivion we are transported to the golden age of piracy. The treasure hunt throws us into various locations, allowing us to visit the French city of Saint-Malo or ire the landscapes of Central America. We talk to various NPCs and carry out quests for them, gradually building and developing Captain Flint's crew.

One of the key elements of the game is obtaining loot, which we use to buy useful items and improve the skills of our heroes. Some conversations can be ed using persuasion, while others may force us to reach for our weapons.

Battles in Flint: Treasure of Oblivion are fought in turns. During the clashes, we move our heroes on the battlefield divided into hexagrams. We give out orders that include using firearms and melee weapons, as well as activating skills unique to each character. The outcome of the action is determined by dice rolls, which we influence using the cards we have. The selection of the crew and combining the abilities of its individual play a crucial role. We wage conflicts on the decks of ships, city streets, as well as in caves and in the jungle.

The game is characterized by realistic graphics enriched with narrative-ing elements straight from a graphic novel. The game includes comic book boards depicting key events and characteristic dialogue bubbles or onomatopoeia.

TheSixthAxis: 5 / 10 by Adrian Burrows

With more development time, copious patches, and some decent tutorials, the good game hidden deep inside Flint: Treasure of Oblivion could be dug up and unearthed. But for now, that treasure remains hidden, with only a map inscribed on the back of a wooden peg leg to try and find it.

MKAU Gaming: 7.5 / 10 by Stace Mayhem

Flint: Treasure of Oblivion as I said is only 5 chapters so it is short, but was actually quite a decent albeit campy dive into the swashbuckling journey of Captain Flint.

EIP Gaming: 5.6 / 10 by Cloude Graves

Flint: Treasure of Oblivion is a mess of many good ideas, not given nearly enough time to breathe. While the visuals are fantastic -- especially the portraits and comic-book-style cutscenes -- they exist to serve a game that feels both narratively and mechanically unfinished. Between unlikeable characters, confusing gameplay that lacks depth, and an overall lack of polish and size, Flint: Treasure of Oblivion fails to make good use of its many innovative ideas, and would've been better served if it had been reigned in.
