The Bard's Tale IV: Director's Cut

But this is balanced by a wide range of synergistic weapons and skills, the power of which is not always immediately obvious.

Exploration in search of better loot is your main occupation, which alone made me play this for many hours, I like that stuff.

Sleek UI, simple controls, just enough lore to tell a story without trying to be a university class in the worlds history.

Just like the previous Bard's Tale game (the one that was released in about 2004), a good portion of this game's budget seems to have been spent on the wonderful soundtrack, which consists of a selection of English and Gaelic songs.

The graphics and atmosphere are great for the story, although I did run into some glitches in gameplay- stutter, mainly.

Difficulty modes, and play style configuration allow any player, from those scared of bunnies to those demon hunting with a toothpick, to find the exact challenge they want.
