In Rivellon, you play as a Source-wielding prisoner whose powers draw you into a struggle over the world’s fate. Choose a race and create a character, or play as one of six origin characters, each with a personal history and quests.
Explore towns, wilderness, and hidden places; talk with characters and animals, uncover quests, and decide how to handle them. Your choices can change how events unfold, while companions bring their own stories and relationships to the journey.
Combat is turn-based and tactical: manage action points, physical and magical armor, positioning, and elevation, while combining skills with elemental surfaces. Develop characters through abilities and equipment, and play the campaign alone or in online or split-screen co-op for up to four players.
In the supplied reviews, players often praise the tactical battles, especially how elemental effects and environmental interactions reward experimentation. Many also enjoy the freedom to build characters and approach quests in different ways, alongside the companions and world they explore. Some reviewers find the combat difficult to learn or punishing, particularly at higher difficulties.
