It's hard to screw up a tried and true genre of game-play...

The game plays a lot like Dark Alliance or Champions of Norrath, with the biggest glaring difference being the lack of customization in the characters. You'll get different pieces of armor as you play through the game, but they won't change how your character looks drastically. Also, you'll keep the same weapon throughout the whole game, with sleight changes in appearance as you upgrade it with Runes / Orbs.

The worst part of the game is the camera. It's easily controllable, but for some reason there are always trees in the way. I don't know how they could release this game without fixing it, because it's impossible to see what's going on a good deal of the time. Luckily, the game is easy enough that you don't have to.

The game gets better if you have a friend to play through with. Co-op story mode is a really nice feature in just about any game. That's pretty much the best part of this game though.

Some of the spell effects look neat, mainly for the Mage class. There's only a total of 3 classes to pick from. Warrior, Scout, and Mage. Warrior is pretty bland.

If you like the hack n' slash genre and you've beaten all the other similar titles, I'd recommend getting Dark Kingdom. Otherwise, wait until the price drops more.
