About This Game
To the common folk, magic was something to be feared and undoubtedly the handiwork of evil demons. People across Europe sought protection from the forces of evil and therefore relinquished utter control of their lives to the Inquisition.
To this day, the Inquisition still governs most of civilized Europe, directly or indirectly. In their relentless hunt for heretical wizards and magical creatures the Inquisition inspires awe and faith among many, and is despised and feared by others.
Choose your champion – Feralkin, Sylvant, Demonkin, or Human Pureblood – and align yourself with the Knights Templar, the Inquisition, or the Wielders. Explore 16th century Europe, twisted and changed by magic, and encounter the likes of Leonardo da Vinci and Galileo.
- An original story set in a warped alternative timeline
- Meet historical characters such as Leonardo da Vinci, Galileo and Shakespeare
- One of the greatest, if often overlooked, RPGs of all time

This is one of those games I come back to purely for nostalgia. It’s a weird mix of Diablo-style combat with Black Isle’s classic RPG storytelling, and while it’s definitely rough around the edges by today’s standards, it has that early 2000s charm. I won’t pretend it’s perfect though, the balance is off and the combat can get repetitive. If you grew up with this one, you’ll probably enjoy it the same way I do: less for what it is now, and more for what it was back then.
I bought this when it came it and doubt that I will replay it.
