Fun, but far from perfect
User Rating: 7.8 | Silverfall PC
Silverfall is a fun, graphically impressive game. The skill progression is nice, and the spell effects are impressive. The whole technology versus nature theme is also new and refreshing. But there are a few things that keep the game from being great. First, the whole tombstone/death system. Losing all your items when you die and having to retrieve them doesn't seem to fit into this genre. Secondly, the controls are a bit to get used to. Moving the cursor toward the edge of the screen causes the camera to rotate, sometimes a bit out of control. And lastly, I would have preferred a save anywhere system in the true sense. Here, when you save if you restart you begin in the nearest town or outpost. So, good all in all, but could have been even better.
