It's an ARPG in the Diablo style but, due to the Devourer's power, you'll control a variety of different characters instead of a single one. This makes the game feel fresh and interesting.Too bad the game has some big flaws:Loading screen are insanely long and there are quite a lot. There's a loading screen even for when youwant to change the party formation - you can have only 3 characters in your party plus the devourer - which made me almost never try new characters combination and killing one of the best characteristics of the game. You can't even equip or level up the inactive characters without traveling to the character select room (which is pointless also because it's just a room with the "puppets" and a single vendor, there was really no need to have it), leading to a very cluttered inventory. It also kills exploration. You will really spend a insane amount of time on loading screens, and you will think twice about loading the game if you don't have a lot of free time on your hands.Controls are bad. Really bad. They're unresponsive, the character often stops insted of attacking or just moves away, right mouse button is useless and the feeling is generally very very clunky. The combat feels often like a chore and it's not too funny.Crafting is very tedious and pointlessly time consuming due to the badly readable interface for it. Absolutely pointless, also because you can never craft items better than what you find.Now for the good part of it... there are some really good ideas in this. The party system is very interesting and adds something new to a overused genre. The world is beautiful and engaging, and makes you want to know more about it. The graphics are quite good: clean, readable, colorful, stylish.The musics are absolutely fantastic. My favourite part of the game. They have a sort of arabic influence and are really, really astonishing and never bore the player.All in all, a pretty decent game that gets pulled down by a few inexplicable flaws.

Heretic Kingdoms saga returns in dignified style. Too bad that a good atmosphere, great dialogue and the alternating of action heroes is corrupted by some technical difficulties in the fight and backlogs in the optimization and user interface.

Thanks to a good plot and some original ideas, Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms is a good exponent of the genre of action RPG, solid and fun. Graphically valid and scalable, for maximum details requires a great gaming system.

Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms is a solid action/RPG overall. If you are looking for something in the vein of Diablo, you might be disappointed. But if you want something with an interesting story, novel mechanics and exquisite level design to dig in then Shadows is a worthy investment.

Pros and Cons:Cons: The combat is clunky.. it does not fell responsive like d3 and I mean its about the same price...You start at lvl 19?Pros and Cons:Cons: The combat is clunky.. it does not fell responsive like d3 and I mean its about the same price...You start at lvl 19? and stats are alredy chosen for youYou fell weak right at the start of the gameThe big flaw is controls are HORRIBLE!!!Pros: I like the graphics and thats it... Go buy a real action rpg like diablo 3 they have it at 40$ with the expanssion...

I welcome the slow paced combat which puts soul balancing and character exchange before abilities. The surprisingly deep story also is a breath of fresh air. But not all is well, especially in the engine department.

It s rare nowdays for game like this one to be seen and played good story and combat graphics ok descent bad : voice cast is ludicrusIt s rare nowdays for game like this one to be seen and played good story and combat graphics ok descent bad : voice cast is ludicrus mediocre at best lifelless npc or interactions even at low settings lagg and sttuter is almost constand frustrating at some points unless patches or coming it s best left alone

I played Diablo, Diablo 2 and tried Diablo 3 but quit that a few weeks in. I love Shadows for its story and its fresh approach.

It's finally something different in a genre that kept repeating itself.
