Description
Torchlight. A booming mining town that grew up around unbelievably rich veins of Ember, that rare ore with the power to enchant--or corrupt--everything it touches. It’s a powerful thing, and everyone knows power, well. Power can corrupt, too. You’ll set out into the nearby mountains and depths below to discover the full extent of Ember’s influence on the civilizations that have come before.

Choose from among three character classes, and venture from the safety of the town of Torchlight into randomly generated dungeon levels, with a huge variety of creepy monsters, endless variations of loot to find, and quests to complete. The endless randomization ensures that you’ll never be playing the same game twice. A fun, crunchy action-RPG, this one game that oozes style, care, and polish out of every single pixel and is a definite must to pick up if you like RPGs or just having some mindless fun.

  • Over 30 randomized levels! Monsters, treasures, puzzles, and items are also different each time you embark on an adventure.
  • Choose a pet that will level up, fight by your side, and even take items back into town to sell them for you!
  • Includes TorchED for you to make your own Torchlight set dungeons, mods, and much, much more!

Fun Diablo Clone

Mostly trying to copy Diablo 1 but with a lot of the design and aesthetic elements of later Bizzard games. Lots of loot to sift through and nothing really interesting story-wise, but it's a fun little diversion and worth a few quid.

Beautiful and boooooring

Reasonably beautiful, but not breathtakingly so. Extremely boring. Breathtakingly so. Similar to some of the missions in Warcraft 3, except that was interesting because it had a plot. This is... click-click-click, killmonsterstakeitems. A 12-year-old might be interested. Or not.

As hollow as a drum of war

Whether you played Torchlight back in the day or today, this game doesn't deserve the hype at all. Just because some Diablo (and Fate) designers got involved in the project doesn't make it the "spiritual successor" of Diablo. This dull game is a pale copy of Diablo.

Nothing special

I have started Torchlight and abandoned after a few weeks. Went back to it after completing and enjoying Titan Quest. Torchlight is such a bland game even comparing to an old TQ. I don't really like this cartoony graphics. Map is really bad. Drops obstruct vision. When there are a lot of action it just looks like a huge mess. Story telling is very weak. Yeah, i have played Diablo many years ago, but i think i have enjoyed it quite more that Torchlight.

Diablo comparisons are groundless

The original Diablo was a dark gothic game. Since its release many clones have been developed. Torchlight is one of the better ones. It has very good graphics. The gameplay is smooth and nice. Hovewer, it lacks depth. The dungeons have differnet tilesets but share a common architecture. The skill system offers nothing new to the already flawed Diablo 2 skill tree. The visuals are too cartoony for my taste. Comparing Torchlight to Diablo is a joke. While they have common traits, the visuals and music set Torhlight apart. It's a good project but is lacking in many departments.
