Darkstone

Old, but gold.. kind of

First off: the game delivers plenty of hack and slay gameplay for the money spent, even by today's standards. It's best to compare it to a retro mobile phone hack and slay for the big screen, sort of. Things you should know: - the camera rotation is happening on the arrow keys of the keyboard, as is the zoom level - looting stuff can be tedious. you *hear* the type of drop, but the rather random drop location around you can go through walls and the items are difficult to spot - there is plenty of loot - you can play two characters at once - there are classes, but any class can achieve almost everything of other classes - there is no character customization, other than armour levels and weaponry - the games' resolution is abysmal, but the graphic style is still very appealing (compare it to torchlight), although it looks like there are some hacks for that - it's very replayable, as it has randomization and difficulty levels - mouse pointer movement is a bit wonky - save at any time if you can get past the negatives, it can be a quite addicting game and only compares to diablo by the type of genre it belongs.
