A fluid mix of stealth and brutal combat set in a dark fantasy realm, with a focus on climbing and assassination.

What players say
Players praise the nemesis system for making orc encounters personal, but many find the open world repetitive and the story forgettable. The combat draws comparisons to Batman: Arkham, and a minority report a save-wiping bug.
