Bought this in the Summer Sale. Great game, played the ♥♥♥♥ out of it. 14 Hours in 2 days. Heartily reccomended. 8.5/10

There's a heavy enough story but it's delivered with cool art and a nice soundtrack. The story doesn't detract from the gameplay in anyway but rather adds to it and engrosses you in the world. You get to choose which characters to use so you even get attached to some. The theme is like Ord Norse gods/ Viking warriors twinned with other fantasy elements. If you've read David Gemmel, I kept on thinking of the Varl as Druss the Legend type guys.

Essentially this is a turn based rpg, like X-Com, with story elements and travel/ market mechanics. If you loved X-Com, which I did, you will love this.
