RPG FanMark RoddisonDec 202478/100A well-made SRPG with a full commitment to its piratical inspirations, even if it takes longer than it should to learn systems and control patterns.

GamingTrendMark JulianJan 202535/100Flint: Treasure of Oblivion feels like an incomplete game with poor storytelling and little to do. At about 10 hours to complete it's certainly not worth the $25 asking price. If you're looking for real-time exploration and turn-based combat, look elsewhere. Games like Divinity Original Sin 2 or Baldur's Gate do everything Flint wants to do but exceedingly better. If Fantasy isn't your jam, check out XCOM.

ShacknewsJosh ChildsDec 20245/10It’s tough to recommend Flint, though. While I did enjoy combat well enough, there was no real payoff for it. I didn’t care for why I’d win in battle or what that meant for the characters and the overall story. If you’re looking for a deep narrative adventure, this is probably not the game for you right now, but if you’re really itching for more strategic turn-based combat, or just really love the pirate setting, maybe consider giving Flint a try.
