  • Fantasy setting
  • Lavish presentation
  • Dark, serious atmosphere

Geralt of Rivia is drawn into a web of regicide and political intrigue, and one early decision splits the entire second act into completely different locations and storylines. Demanding real-time combat and a grim, morally grey world define the experience.

Hand of Fate

Fantasy setting

A mysterious dealer lays out a tarot-card board-game dungeon, and encounters then erupt into real-time, Arkham-style melee brawls. The blend of luck, choices and combat makes every run tell a different story.

Fatekeeper

Fantasy setting

A first-person fantasy action RPG that blends melee with spellcasting across a handcrafted world of ancient ruins. Relics, spells and your decisions shape how your character grows.

Enclave

Lavish presentation

A linear fantasy action game from Starbreeze where you play two campaigns, one for the Light and one for the Darkness, and choose from warriors, archers and mages before each mission. It looked impressive for its time and is known for tough melee combat.

Blades of Fire

Lavish presentation

A dark fantasy action adventure where you play Aran de Lira, forging your own weapons and tailoring them to enemy weaknesses. Weapon crafting and weighty, tactical melee combat are the heart of the experience.

The Witcher

Strong character progression

Geralt's first outing stands out for its mature, morally grey world where decisions often pay off hours later. Its quirky rhythm-based combat with stances and potions takes getting used to, but the Slavic-flavored atmosphere is unforgettable.

Lichdom: Battlemage

Lavish presentation

A first-person battlemage action game where you craft your own spells from elements and modifiers and unleash them in combat. Its strength is the flexible spellcrafting and flashy magical combat rather than its story.

Soul Sacrifice

Fantasy setting

A dark action RPG for the Vita where you fight monsters through the pages of a talking grimoire, casting spells powered by sacrifices. Each choice between mercy and sacrifice carries real consequences for your power and your story.
