Come across this game when I was viewing on youtube, and I admit that their artworks is really good, considering how they manage on the creativity from it first sequel.



What I can compare this game, based on the video taken, is that it is something like Prince of Persian, in which you control a character call "Nameless Hero", with a sword and a pistol in hands,


This time the story is about the world will be destroyed, and surprisingly, the hero from the first series, Risen, actually turn to a broken drunken.

Since it it based on Pirate theme, Sea Monster is not excused from this game, but what I don't like is how they name each monster, especially that is Leviathan.

Leviathan is named as a giant serpent, but they turn it into some Golem looking monster.





As i mentioned that it something like Prince of Persian, there are many quests in the game, which mean you will have a lot of talking, puzzle to solve, and some fighting.

I actually surprised that you'll get to use a monkey as a decor or helping you to open window or get stuffs for you.

Fighting style wise, not bad. You can swing your swords, slash it or defend with it, or use your pistol to shoot down your enemy.

Despite all the cool looking game-style, I will wait and see how the game go first since it will be release on 22nd May, though Europe will get it on 27th April for PC version.

If I am to make a choice, I find it no harm in waiting for Diablo III (@Wiki) instead though.
