How it feels

A deliberate, story-driven first-person action-adventure through a dark fantasy world with Metroidvania-style exploration and light RPG elements.

What players say

Players praise the graphics but say combat is unbalanced, resources like arrows and mana are too scarce, and there is no map for exploration. Many find the game repetitive, with endless arenas and puzzles, and note that auto-saves punish death heavily. A few enjoy the challenge and compare it to Dark Messiah, but most recommend skipping it even on sale.
