A punishingly faithful return to a cult classic's gothic action-RPG feel, with methodical combat and a dense, hand-crafted atmosphere.

What players say
Players praise this restoration for making the 1999 classic playable on modern systems with quality-of-life improvements and controller support. Some report uneven performance even on high-end hardware, and a few find the key bindings conflicting and unchangeable. The developer is described as very active and responsive to feedback.
