I've played this game ages ago, long before i had enough money to buy games on steam. I don't think I've ever finished it back then, but it always lingered in my mind, as an experience i want to go back to. Recently, I sat down and went through it from start to finish, and I have to say, it's a wonderful game, full of secrets to figure out by yourself, rather unique real-time combat, and an unmistakeable, dungeon-crawler atmosphere. Since the days I first played this game, and downloaded it from some sketchy torrents site, I've played a whole lot of table-top RPGs and, frankly, after all these years, I find the traps, and room designs of this game, to be both a golden standard of what you should aim for in gaming, either one played on the table, or on the computer. The exploring aspect is extraordinary, the gameplay loop is satisfying and the last boss is so campy and well-thought-out it just... works perfectly, bringing both a smile and high intensity into the last few minutes of the game. Overall, I think of this game as 9/10, as the locations can become a bit repetitive, and a fuckup may mean a lot of mindless backtracking. Other than that, I can't wait to see the second part of this series, as it seemed like an improvement over an already wonderful game.

I got really surprised how satisfying is to play this game. Solve puzzles, uncover secrets, get better gear, slay monsters.

Not sure why the recent reviews are mixed, this is a great game. A bit obscure at times with its puzzles, and a little clunky by modern standards, but still a fun game. Seeing as one of the recent negative reviews is "How the ♥♥♥♥ attack in this game? Non key works." when the game TELLS you that all you need to do is right click to attack, I can only assume the negative reviews were left by morons.

Excellent game. Great game play, great immersion and it really captures the old school feeling of just sludging through a dark dangerous dungeon with great enemy design and good lore.

Between this (older) title and the recent Wizardry Proving Ground of the Mad King, this is actually a fantastic modernized version of the cRPG Grid Based Movement Turn Based Dungeon Crawler. The combat is a mix of real time/turn based using an turn cooldown mechanic that works. This mechanic adds a fantastic method of strategy to the genre regarding how you arm your party. The graphics are super clean and are not a strain at all on your system. With support for the Steam Workshop, you also have the potential for a variety of replay value with new mazes/dungeons, enemies and more. Animation is clean, and looks great. The UI/UX is clean and simple without clutter. You also have a modern mapping system to help you navigate the mazes. Controls caught me off guard at first. However, within moments I can't imagine playing it any other way. wasd with q/e for turning just makes sense here. Using a controller? Well, the shoulders turn you. Not that I recommend controller due to finding it easier to mouse click for combat/magic. However, this is a subjecting point. Since this is more than half the cost of Wizardry Proving Ground (which I do thoroughly enjoy too), you can NOT go wrong here.
