    [​IMG]Chalgyr's Game Room has the next review for Avernum 2: Crystal Souls this month, and the reviewer gave the game a score of 9.5/10.

    I did not know how much it is that I missed the classic roleplaying game style; the isometric 2D models that are well animated, the massive world and sprawling dungeons, the sheer number of skills and spells to master, everything about Avernum 2 screams triple-A title out of a small indie game studio. When I dove into Avernum I was transported into a rich world of terror and complacency, joy and sadness, justice and injustice, and best of all, a world full of real people struggling with real issues in a fantasy land where oppression is the norm. While the graphics will appeal to the older generation, the sheer storytelling and gameplay mechanics can bring in new players and introduce them to the golden age of CRPG games. Avernum 2: Crystal Souls is without a doubt, the best computer roleplaying game I have played in years, if not in over a decade.​
    And that's not all as here's a new video preview.

    ​

    Hello folks! In this episode, we check out the first 40 minutes or so of the indie CRPG - Avernum 2: Crystal Souls!

    Avernum 2 is a game made by Jeff Vogel and Spiderweb Software, and is an indie RPG. The game takes place in the underground empire of Avernum, and features some open-world type mechanics, customizable party members and full-on tactical, turn-based combat. It's a very slick combination of classic, traditional and old-school mechanics that makes for a very interesting game to play.

    I take it for a spin (blindly) and play the first 40 minutes of the tutorial. If you like this game, please support the devs and pick up Avernum 2: Crystal Souls for Mr. Vogel's own website here - http://www.avernum.com/avernum2/index...

    As always, I hope you enjoy the video and please comment/like/subscribe for more! Ciao!​
