This is a review of the main game, without The White March.

Story
The story revolves around a "Watcher", a person who can read souls. The whole construct around the concept of souls rebirthing is new and refreshing in fantasy RPG. I like that very much.

Gameplay / Controls
The game is easy controllable by mouse and keyboard and looks very much like "Baldur's Gate". That's not a bad thing, because it's the right way to do it.

Graphics
The graphics are not uber-fancy but good and useful - better than any BG-redux, that's a good thing. In windowed mode the mouse sticks to the edges, so you can scroll easily, and it even works on a triple-monitor setup quite nicely. The HUD could stick to the center monitor, but I've not seen that very often in other games either...

Sound
The sounds and music are on the spot and the voice-acting is great - remember, that's not some big budget AAA-title!

Conculsion
Get it now!

Sidenote: if you play in german and you are from Austria: please read all dialogs of Aloth's second ego - they are hilarious!
