You play as Sareth, a trainee in the arts of Might and Magic sent to recover an ancient crystal. The adventure unfolds in the Might & Magic fantasy world.
Fight from a first-person perspective with swords, bows, spells, and stealth. Kicks, throwable objects, traps, and other parts of the environment can also help you take down enemies.
Develop Sareth by unlocking skills, spells, and attacks, mixing different approaches as you progress. The campaign follows a mostly linear path with secrets and alternate routes, alongside choices that can lead to multiple endings.
Players often praise the combat for letting them improvise with kicks, physics, traps, and the environment rather than relying only on direct attacks. Reviews also appreciate the mix of melee, magic, stealth, and character builds, as well as secrets tucked into the linear levels. Some players find the challenge uneven, and many report crashes or other technical problems on modern systems.
