New to KUF series
Visually, the game isn't half bad. Icy ground reflects light impressed me . . .to a point. The background could have been more to add to the eye candy factor. The soundtrack is kind of annoying.
Gameplay wise, Circle of Doom seemed very simplistic. Learning different spells for a certain character in which it requires you to slay certain monsters? Gimmicky at best. Storyline certainly was not the main draw to cause gamers to come back, I would have to say it's the wanting to reach to the next level (or obtaining achievement points). There isn't much strategy to this game, if you are playing solo, you can pretty much beat the levels based upon how many health potions you have in your inventory. Camera angle can be bad and annoying at times.
Definitely rent the game or borrow it from a friend first if you have never played KUF . . .I've heard that the past games was nothing like this one. I am just killing time with this game . . .until Burnout Paradise is out. That and Lost Odyssey.
