How it feels

A grim, old-school first-person RPG where you explore dark fantasy planes, casting magic and fighting Doomlords in a slow, methodical quest for power.

What players say

Players enjoy the cheesy B-movie tone and retro FMV style, but they split on the gameplay: some find it a fun homage to DOS-era action-adventure, while others call it a boring walking simulator with tedious combat. Soft-lock bugs have been a recurring frustration for some.
