Open on Steam ↗US Steam price, checked 5 h ago
A janky but atmospheric Gothic-style sci-fi/fantasy RPG with a great open world and meaningful choices, but clunky combat and a brutal start. Skip it if you want polished, smooth action.
Great for
Gothic/Risen fans and patient explorers who love old-school, choice-driven RPGs and forgive eurojank
Main risk
Clunky combat and one-hit deaths in the first 20 hours make many players quit

“One of the best Open World in any video games. If you are looking for a game that has EXPLORATION and IMMERSION, this game is probably in the top 5.”
