In this article we will talk about both good and bad sides of Sands of Salzaar so you can decide if this is the right game for you.

PROS:

1. Open World adventure. While Sands of Salzaar is a Strategy game, it have a lot of RPG elements in it. And the fact that you can roam map freely ads a lot to the immersion and options that you can go for.  Go for the main quest, side quest or just roam the map and build your army, choice is yours.

2.  Vast Skill trees. If you love skill trees Sands of Salzaar have plenty to sate your needs. Skills, Talents, troop development each have their own skill trees.

3. Freedom of choice. You can be good, you can be bad, build your own relations with each faction. Fight armies, take over cities and villages or be a peaceful adventurer helping everyone, its up to you.

4. No Microtransactions. You just buy the game and then play it. No paywalls, battlepasses, offers and other p2w crap. Just pure gameplay.

5. Fun progression mechanics. You can hire heroes to your team, equip them and lvl them up. You can hire troops of different factions to your army and as they lvl up they can change to a different type of troops. Overall this progression mechanics of mixing and matching units is very enjoyable.

CONS:

1. Huge amount of Bugs. At the current state game crashed from time to time, can switch to other language without option to change it back and so on.

2. Grind is real. In order to progress you will have to fight a lot of fights, and some of them gets repetitive. You will need to clear a lot of resource camps to upgrade your troops, farm gear and just fight weak enemies for the loot.

3. Lack of different arenas. Overall there are 3 arenas: 1 for normal fights, 1 for hero only fights and 1 MOBA style arena for sieges. Problem is that each fight have exactly the same landscape, so it lacks variety.

Verdict

Overall with all Pros and Cons considered Sands of Salzaar is a mixed game. On the one hand I really enjoyed playing it and want to play more, on another hand crashes and bugs are pushing me away. It will be really fun game when the bugs will be fixed though, especially since its a single-player offline game that you can play without internet.
