Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness is the first videogame by a new indie studio and it charmed me in the... main menu atmosphere already with the hand-made background and greedy music theme imitating a cynical laugh. With forgivable "indie flaws", this videogame is a heartwarming experience I've been waiting for more than a decade if I don't count Enhanced Editions of IE engine games. Story and RTwP combat are great after Act 1. Tutorial wasn't my favorite but it isn't overly long. The UI and 2D art are particularly eye-catching for those who enjoy games like Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition and Pillars of Eternity. 3D models are slightly less detailed than Pillars of Eternity but some armors and weapons are actually better! Just the overall quality has some glitches for 3D models but this is something totally forgivable. Some quests are especially immersive, while others are great for collecting valuable loot and XP but don't contribute to the world too much. Music themes are beautiful. All in all, definitely recommended!
