Dark Scavenger

Simple but powerful interactive story with a turn-based combat in it.

Pros:
-Rewards thinking about your actions and punish stupidity.
-Interesting setting.
-Constant absurd humor.
-Easy to understand weapon-item-ally combat system, but becomes more and more complex with time (or more precisely, with loot)
-Progress system based in a semirandom loot-crafting system: loot itself can be missed and you normally have three different options for each loot item: you can guess its final function but you never know precisely its way of working.

Cons:
-Very simple animation for combats: will improve showing allies, items or weapons being summoned/used.
-Too heavily based in a two step cycle of obtaining loot/fighting, when its characters will do for more complex conversations.
