I want to like it but something in the advertising screams mobile game.

Free to play version allows full game but limits character progression beyond level 4

No ads or annoying in-app purchases

In-app purchases, seems clear enough.

Also, only 8 classes and 35 different monsters.
I'm not asking for much but the art-style is terrible.

Last but not least:

Randomly generated worlds so you never know what to expect during your adventures

Well, you're certainly not expecting the best, that's for sure.

I find the artstyle to have an amateurish charm, but yeah.

Random generation is a crutch for devs too lazy or untalented to make handcrafted content.

Well, if the combat is good and they expand on classes and enemies, it might turn out alright.

I played a bit of Dungeon of Chaos a while ago, it's a kind of D&D Sandbox with some quests, dungeons and a huge world to explore.

The downside is randomly generated content, combat is alright but after a while, it's all the same because there is no encounter design.
Also, the world is huge but quite empty or even filled with randomly generated monsters and some dungeons to find, some cities too, but the handcrafted content is really drowned into the randomly generated one, you can walk for 10 minutes without finding any city and even when you find one, it's empty because yes, there is some story bits but everything is terribly wrapped together.

It's just sad.

I have this on my iphone as well (the lite version I guess). I've played with it a little. Phone gaming isn't my platform... except solitaire when I bother.

Looks quite interesting, the one thing i don't understand is single character with a TB system, even a small party would work, like 3 characters but this is just retarded, it'll piss-off half the TB fanbase at least and 100% of the action-games fanbase.
There is no reason to go single character in a TB "RPG".

Shachibato! President, It's Time for Battle! Maju Wars
RELEASED!
JRPG, Tactical, Turn-based, Party-based

From a steam positive review: "The game is a simple Srpg with Building management. you don't level your units but instead you upgrade your buildings to boost the unit's stats."
The gameplay looked decent, i was prepare to overlook the story(probably retarded) & anime art-style but this is the last staw.

Tactical, Turn-based, Pixel Graphics, Squad-based
REM Cycles
RELEASED!
Roguelike, Party-based, Turn-based, "JRPG", Pixel Graphics

From the link above:
" You’ll love REM Cycles.
REM Cycles was influenced by several games. Some of the aspects we’re focusing on include the character-based strategy and support conversations of Fire Emblem, the roguelike elements and item design of Risk of Rain 2, and the dungeon design of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon."
I can't copy paste the screenshots but imagine clouds, rainbows, flying pigs and a touch of pink to get the picture...


Black Powder Red Earth
RELEASED!
Tactical, Turn-based, Pixel Graphics, Squad-based

Two reviews at least mention having to wait forever for the enemy units to walk around when there a lot of them.
