Even though this game seems underdeveloped it is still lots of fun. The RPG elements aren't anything you haven't seen before, but it's the combat that makes this game so much fun. You can choose between many different subclasses of weapons in these four classes: 1 handed mêlée, 2 Handed mêlée, throwing, and shooting (bows, or crossbows)
You can either ride or be on foot, and you also have the option of having a shield and many different types of armor. Since the combat is the best thing about this game I'll talk about some more.
THE COMBAT system is very unique, it uses 1st or 3rd person camera, but 1st is what you will want to be using in combat. You can attack left, right, up, or down. And can block left, right, up, or down. If an enemy attacks you from the left, you must defend from the left, if an enemy gives you an opening by raising his arms too high then you should attack from the bottom. Etc. This may seem like there would be a very complex controls but there aren't, you do all of your attacks and blocks by using the mouse. This game does a very good job of displaying mid-evil combat, and is quite addicting if you like that sort of thing.
