Broken Roads was born of a love for traditional isometric computer role-playing, and will provide a rich, engaging narrative in which players make their way across a desolated Australia. Blending together traditional and all-new role-playing elements on top of a classless system offering near-unlimited character development options, Broken Roads presents players with an original morality system: the Moral Compass. This novel design sees dialogue options and questing decisions influence, and be influenced by, a character's philosophical leaning.

Critic Reviews
ProjectN
By Rafael SoaresBroken Roads is an RPG that didn’t quite deliver everything it promised. While there are many choices to make, they don’t have significant consequences for the story. However, the game is localized in Portuguese, the gameplay is engaging, the story isn’t entirely generic, and players will definitely spend many hours to complete the playthrough. So, despite the somewhat high price, it's worth giving it a chance if you enjoy the post-apocalyptic RPG genre.

By Eser GüvenIf you're looking for a CRPG that values dialogue and has a compelling story, Broken Roads will give you what you want. However, in order to love it, you really need to be able to overlook its flaws.

By Ron BurkeBroken Roads is a solid effort that falls short of capitalizing on its central mechanics. While it takes some ambitious steps, it doesn't realize them in execution. Community engagement suggests patches will address the big rocks soon, but know that it's a moving target thus far.

By Rob KershawBroken Roads has elements of a great RPG, but they're buried beneath a broken quest system, tedious combat and numerous bugs.

By Oliver ShelldingThe major issue is, for something so potentially grand and promising, there’s just no fuel to keep the fire going. You find handfuls of tinder and the occasional decent stick to build a little heat, but when the most exciting moments come from shooting massive spiders and finding innovative ways to run around the map, it’s just a bit of a splodge that doesn’t ever quite find its shape.
