Negative Positive
Title: A Single-Player Gauntlet Knock-Off
Review: It's almost painful to see a game with this much potential fail so miserably. The premise is superb - a lone mage fighting hordes of enemies with a wide variety of spells. Unfortunately, the controls and gameplay kill this promising concept. Switching between the different spells that you need is cumbersome, and you can only save in designated spots. The graphics are probably the only redeeming features, as the spell effects are impressive and it is interesting to watch Arran age over the course of the game from a young boy into an old, wise wizard.Overall I can only recommend this game if you are a serious fan of spellcasting-based games and if you can get a cheap purchase/rental price.
