How it feels

You charge through pixelated demon hordes, casting dark spells in a fast, old-school first-person shooter that feels like a frantic, atmospheric power fantasy.

What players say

Players call it a charming and funky hexen-like where you feel like a frail necromancer flinging spells. The levels are impressively huge, but getting lost is a constant complaint, and there are no checkpoints at all. Players split on the graphics, some find them charmingly unpolished while others say they are worse than half-finished mods.
