This is a truly excellent fantasy adventure game, complete with some good music and not-so-good voice acting. Of course, it seems to follow the old "defeat the evil villain before he destroys the world" storyline, but it soon changes into something quite different. From the persecuted shape-changing Slathan, to the mysterious nomadic Soptus Ecliptus, to the mischievous Faeries of Brynn-Fann, this is an adventure I'll not soon forget.

I really like the theme song for the intro, but that's probably because I like the Phantasm movies so much. It sounds just like the movie's! Observe: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTSkELbCUbw

Come along with me as I begin this journey through a dystopian city, with my little robot, Joey, as my only companion. Why is the council after me? How do we escape the city and exact bloody retribution upon them for killing off my entire tribe? Marvel as I face Officer Reich (who must be from Brooklyn), gab with two silly guards, feed a cat and steal from a dog, and get a hole drilled in my head... voluntarily. All that and more, for the low price of... nothing!
