Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms Review – DigitalChumps

DigitalChumps:

"Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms features top notch voice-acting and solid isometric action RPG gameplay, not to mention a lot of bang for your gaming buck.

Having recently come out of Early Access, Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms is available now for $30. It's an isometric action RPG in the vein of Diablo or Titan Quest, and offers players a diverse and deep experience even if not particularly long (although the sequel is likely out next year). The game takes place directly after the events of 2004's Heretic Kingdoms: The Inquisition. I have never played The Inquisition, but I bought it on GOG after playing Shadows for a few hours because I wanted to experience that story. Anyway, since Shadows' release, several quick patches have already come up to address launch time bugs, which really any game of any budget has, so it's good to see the devs participating and responding to community needs. In short, if you played this in Early Access and had trouble, it's quite likely those issues have been fixed."
