Description
You are a mercenary possessed by a flame demon in a desperate world ravaged by seven Ice Lords and their Dead-Army.

In this RPG where all your choices lead to consequences, you will have to choose between unleashing the powers of the beast within and rejecting the demonic influence that wants to claim your humanity.

Freely develop your abilities and combat style through three skill trees: swing the heavy weapons of the Fighter, wield the sneaky dual daggers of the Ranger, or use the devastating flame spells of the Pyromancer.

Recruit companions who will live, love, hate and fight alongside you against the dreadful creatures of Vertiel, in real-time epic battles based on tactics and reaction.

The bigger the danger, the greater the temptation to draw on the demon’s power at the cost of your soul… which way will YOU choose?

Dexterity essential

This is a souls-like game, by which I mean it deliberately excludes the less dextrous. There are difficulty settings, but the lowest difficulty setting is not low enough to make the game playable unless you can dodge and parry and buttonmash effectively. The story looked as though it might be fun, but I will never know. I have given it an extra star for having a female protagonist option, even though that is never acknowledged in the dialogue (at least at the start, I obviously can't tell you if that improves).

Might be good

Game seems good, but playing these types of action adventure RPG's with a keyboard is terrible imo. Only "Supports" Xbax Controller and has no way to remap the controls.

Absolute god awful game

Incompetent developers at their worst. Cannot describe how bad this game is, pure stupidity and rejected developers gathered together to make this atrocious flaming turd.

Burn it with fire

An absolutely terrible game from a terrible dev team/publisher. Bad plot, worse acting, janky and generic gameplay, uninteresting quests. Everything about this is the gaming epitome of bland. While mods and patches help to some degree it simply cant escape that Spiders legacy as seen with games like Technomancer. The graphics are perhaps the best part of this though they are firmly rooted in last gen PS3/X360 era with some enhancements. Outside of the voice acting the sound design is perhaps second. Perhaps the biggest slight this game makes is its ridiculous difficulty jump at the end that almost made me give up and not finish it. Sadly even the ending was not adequate payoff for it. I could say more bad things about it but honestly as a modern GOG gamer I appreciate EVERY modern 3d RPG we get in the sea of isometric RPGs we have. Plus the initial sale price of 4$ IS a valid price for the game. So definitely wait for it to go on sale. Ive paid for and played worse things, albeit not by much. 1.75 stars is most appropriate but cant justify giving it two.
