An excellent illustration of a frankly underestimated project of the Russian gaming industry.
One of the very worthy games of its time with a high-quality, well-thought-out plot, a cool crafting system with enchanting items, independent combat mechanics with elements of sneaking, quick killing, attacking body parts, etc.
The well-developed and original lore should be mentioned separately, even if there are orcs, goblins, trolls and company familiar to everyone, but the created world does not seem secondary, and foresters, cannibals and all sorts of armored people make it diverse and memorable.
The game clearly deserves more. It gives dozens of hours of a wonderful story, which the main character can go through alone or in the company of fellow party members, as secretly as possible or meeting enemies face to face.
