It's difficult to define “Divine Divinity”; it's just a really good game.
The appearance show us a classical action Rpg. We have a bidimensional world in which our hero, alone, with no party, has to reach the final goal defined by the plot. Combat system is similar a “Diablo”, so we could think to a “Diablo style” action rpg. On the contrary we have here a real solid Rpg. There are very much quests and an intriguing plot to follow. Yes there many enemies to challenge, but not all quests require a violent solution.
Another very interesting feature is the chance to manipulate very much objects in the world. In this way we have many alternative solutions to follow, and the sensation to be in a real tangible world.
The graphic is pleasant with his colors, the 2D design is at his best. Player will be involved in a very interesting story until the end. The control system is user friendly.
This game is a gem, don't miss it.
