Blades of Time

Quick-paced, action oriented with a lame history and interesting combat. Good enough to pass the time.

Is the story good? Not particularly, but it makes up for it with environment and imho very fun combat mechanics. Yes, it has it's frustrating moments - mainly were you have to use time clones to execute puzzles. That being said, I had a blast playing this game!

Nonsensical story and very, VERY talkative characters who say nothing of relevance. Combat can be fun and has many options. It's an okay six to eight hours timewaster.

The game looks really well given its already advanced age. Back then this was a top notch graphics. The graphical design of worlds and the ambient atmosphere associated with them is very well done. So this was about all what was good. Sorry. The story is unfortunately very bland, at best. The protagonist is fighting number of enemies though long linear sections with some arenas in between. Very uninspiring. I think the only place here the boredom somewhat receded was the desert planet where some timing puzzles have been added. Otherwise, the enemies feel spongy, at times making battles just plainly boring. I found the sky people particularly annoying. You can hack and slash thing or cast spells. All feels underwhelming. The final battle is again, boring. Hectic and not very rewarding. All in all, it is an old good looking game with a very simplistic story and rather boring mechanics.

After installing and launching it, not a single sound came out of this game. Which is very disappointing clearly.
