Very short game. Played on Hard at first and switched to Medium (Hard was very doable, but it gets tedious)

Early verdict: 6/10 Recommend to buy on Deep Sale

Gameplay 6/10
Very repetitive, not much of enemy variety. Got crafting and upgrading (equipment and skills), but all too shallow to make it memorable. Although it does help to dish out extra damage.
Very few equipment to choose from.
Sooo many back-and-forth, and semi-re-spawning enemies which is more than a nuisance than a challenge (hence the lowering difficulty)

Story 7/10:
Not bad actually. Despite how short the game is, it explains quite a lot on the world and the dynamics between factions.

Graphics 6/10:
For a 2013 game I expected better, but then again, it's a small Spider game.
And very few variety for location, but then again, see above.
Industrial is industrial, a crap ton of brownish dusty areas, and some copy pasted tunnels/dungeon.
Overall gloomy atmosphere (not a minus, fits the theme of the game)

Voice acting 7/10:
Surprisingly solid. Yes there are some less than good ones here and there, but overall, I liked it.
Props to most of the VAs.

Story 6/10:
Considering the constraints (short game, small world). I'm satisfied.
There are choices to be made that will probably change the journey and ending, but I can't be arsed to do another tedious playthrough just to see all of em.

It's an OK game, nothing to write home about. But enjoyable enough that you get your (discount price) money's worth.
