User Reviews

An amazing, powerful game combining a strategy level and first-person roleplaying quests, unfortunately ahead of its time and crippled by bugs.	Windows	weregamer (169)
An ambitious effort that attempts to be a lot of everything but ends up being much of nothing.	Windows	Zen Gamer (78)
