Rating Summary
This is a role-playing game in which players lead adventures on a quest to stop an evil villain. Players explore dungeons, complete quests, and engage in turn-based combat against human soldiers and fantasy creatures (e.g., elves, demons). Battles are depicted from a third-person tactical view, with players positioning characters on a grid-based area to use weapon strikes and magic spells against enemies. Battles are accompanied by impact sounds and blood-splatter effects. Some areas depict large blood trails on the ground as well as blood stains underneath corpses. Cutscenes depict additional acts of violence: a woman stabbed in the chest; a zombie-like creature impaled by a knife. The game depicts several drunken characters with slurred speech; one-character class (Bard) uses alcoholic stouts and brews to gain strength and abilities during combat. The words “sh*t” and “ar*ehole” are heard in the game.
