    [​IMG]Softpedia has posted a new review for Spiderweb Software's Avadon 2.


    Considering the scope of the game and the size of the studio, it's not all that bad. The story has its twists and turns, there are many optional dungeons and quests, your companions have their own motivations and beliefs and remember whether you agreed or disagreed with them, there's a bit of a moral quandary hovering about, and there are many solid hours of exploring packed in this little gem.

    It may not be a streamlined experience entirely worthy of our times, but it certainly plays the nostalgia card right. Unfortunately, it takes both the good and the bad, not managing to bring enough new blood into the genre, being content with just being more of the old stuff.

    If you liked the Ultima series or remember having a lot of fun with Dark Sun, then you're certainly going to love Avadon 2: The Corruption. The game is tailor-made for die-hard classic role-playing fans and it doesn't pretend to be anything it's not.

    If you can stomach the graphics and its archaic pitfalls, it offers countless hours of fun and exploration, a good story, and an overall rewarding and enthralling experience. Above all, what it may lack in visuals and polish, it makes up for in soul. It is truly a game that has a lot to offer beyond its quaint presentation.​
