Cute, Strange, but atmospheric!
This is an odd little game but clearly had a lot of care poured into it. The first thing that will hit you is the voice acting which is legendarily bad, but it's only in cutscenes and most of the dialogue isn't poorly translated thankfully with a lot of nuance. The other interesting thing: you don't pick a character. This is a Diablo game from the perspective of one person, a woman named Lan Wei, although you can find companions to follow you into battle and on your adventures. This is much less a hack and slash game as it is an action RPG with a lot of emphasis on varied quests for NPCs and just walking around enjoying the atmosphere and talking to the inhabitants. Everyone seems to have a little story which even Diablo can't claim to often. For all the voice acting might tug you out, the charming graphics and interactions can pull you in. This is NOT a thrill a minute game although thankfully the combat systems are fairly easy to understand. You need to look around, interpret clues, talk to everyone you see. This actually reminded me more of Dark Earth than an ARG: a world to explore more than wandering mobs to crush for gold and upgrades. It sits uneasily in the gap between action and roleplaying, but the unique setting and clear care than went into this game won me over. Also you can set the voices to Japanese for better performances.
