There's always something to be said for games that have a unique art style. Even if it's hard to get into the core mechanics of the game, almost anyone can appreciate that the games look great. One game that does manage to pair a fantastic art style with some fun game-play mechanics is The Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross, an RPG that's currently available on the Google Play Store. Though the game is undoubtedly pretty, it's also one that consumers should investigate before they decide whether it is worth their time.

Features

The Seven Deadly Sins is a turn-based RPG that focuses on card combat, skill building, and character progression. The game tasks players with undertaking a number of different tasks, rewarding them with stronger skills and the ability to alter their characters in a few different ways. Similar to many of the other card-based RPGs on the Game Store, it has more of a focus on individual characters than its peers and the game certainly puts more of a premium in creating a fun visual experience than many other games.

Benefits

Simply put, The Seven Deadly Sins is a fun a game. Not only does it have some uniquely fun mechanics, but it feels like one of the few games in this style that has put as much work into being a fun game as it does into getting players to spend money. You'll legitimately spend time trying to come up with strategies and tactics to get better in this game, something that's hard to say for many free-to-play titles. This is more than a time-waster - this game provides some fantastic entertainment.

Pros and Cons

There's no denying that the art is the strongest part of this game. This is a drop-dead gorgeous video game, with characters that look amazing and upgrades that are tempting even beyond their ability to help you do better in the game. There was clearly a lot of effort put into making this game look the best that it could, leading to the kind of visual experience that is going to make it hard for you to go back to other similar games. That, combined with a combat system that is actually fun to play, will keep you coming back to the game for quite some time.

With that said, there are some flaws. The biggest one is a bit of a double-edged sword. This game puts out content very quickly, which is great for those who are always looking for something new but not so great for those who feel the need to dominate the leader boards by keeping up with the game's meta. Casual players are going to have to get used to the idea that they'll never quite be able to grab all the new content right when it comes out, while those who are competitive are almost certainly going to have to spend money to keep up with the game's output.

Conclusion

The Seven Deadly Sins is a solid game that is definitely deeper than its excellent aesthetics might suggest. Though it's hard to keep up wit the game as a free-to-play player, it's got enough to do that those who don't have to be at the top of the leader boards will always have ways to feel engaged. If you're looking for a beautiful, engaging RPG to play in your free time, this app is one that you should definitely download.
