ABBANDONATO

La trama è molto interessante e l'ambientazione curata ed originale. La grafica è datata, ma in virtù dei pregi sopra descritti avrei potuto passarci sopra. Se però uniamo la grafica pessima ad una giocablità macchinosa e frustrante, si capirà il motivo per cui l'ho abbandonato dopo appena qualche ora di gioco. Aveva buone potenzialità ma non ha retto alla prova …

Wow, what a fascinating game. I was just watching an LP of this, very strange mixture of rpg (both 3D and isometric) and turn-based strategy. In a very bizarre sci-fi/fantasy setting. I wish I'd had this when I was a kid, I would have loved it. When I was a kid I had all the time in the world, it sucks being a grown up, I have set little chunks aside to play games in little droplets. This game strangely calls to me.. my favourite pub in all of Melbourne is called The Albion perhaps it means something. Guess I'll add it to my wishlist somewhere.

Hmm, I just realised I already own this game! I just played it for a bit. Might have to add it to my "to-play-next" list somewhere. I probably won't be able to beat it, but still I've love to go and explore this world, even just for a little while.
