Steam review snapshots
better interface for game screen (bigger resolution) and better interface for potion making (now you have recipe book and don't have…It's got a sensible story, loads to explore, blockades to explode and traps to exploit against your many newfound enemies.The game looks great for a solo dev indie title, with various landscapes, vegetation, monsters, etc.The plot is decent, but perhaps there's less intrigue and mystery behind it than in Book I, as you don't have full-blown…Why it fits
Check it if you want rpg filtered by single-player.
