Imagine a game called Chuck E. Cheese's Modern Warfare. You'd probably think that was some dumb shit and wonder who it was for. Last Bible Special is the same deal. The point of Last Bible was to distinguish itself from mainline SMT and provide a different experience than first-person dungeon crawling, but with similar mechanics.

Naturally, they made this a hardcore dungeon crawler with almost no relation to Last Bible. It has a very cool class system with dozens of options for party building, and a neat Middle Eastern setting - but just about everything in this game relies on random chance, from recruiting team members, to getting critical quest items, to having weapons break, and even reviving fallen allies. It's a messy and cumbersome game that doesn't respect your time whatsoever, and definitely leans more towards luck than skill. To top it off, the soundtrack is reminiscent of slamming piano keys underwater, and I'm not saying that to be funny.
