    Not bad but not good either,this game could have been so much better! very nice graphics, but shoddy controls and lousy save system just drag it down.

    The game contains too little action, and it is too long game but it has good graphic

    Although not as dreadful as the professional reviews say, it isn't nearly as good as my fellow posters are claiming (don't let game developers rate their own products). It's disappointing and tends to be boring. The combat system is very crappy. The enemy AI is silly (Are you injured? Just walk out that door! Enemies don't leave rooms, they just run around inside while Although not as dreadful as the professional reviews say, it isn't nearly as good as my fellow posters are claiming (don't let game developers rate their own products). It's disappointing and tends to be boring. The combat system is very crappy. The enemy AI is silly (Are you injured? Just walk out that door! Enemies don't leave rooms, they just run around inside while you shoot them from the doorway). Has some pretty environments, pretty simple puzzles, very, very little tension and _no scares_. For a game that advertises itself as an adventure horror, it's not. Oh, and the voice acting is crappy, the plot is obvious, and the character is compelled to narrate the obvious. "This is a SECRET ROOM." This game has allowed me to more easily moderate my computer use.… Expand

    Shade: Wrath of Angels, is not a good game. It's not a game that I would recommend to anyone. I would recommend Blade of Darkness or even the lackluster Rune, both of which are years old, over Shade in an instant.

    This game is so boring and annoying that I can’t force myself to play it anymore. Now I’m not going to say this is one of the worst games of the year (I think "Lords of the Realm III" deserves that honor), but as soon as this review is over I’m not going to play it anymore.

    Its generic plot and presentation are so bland, the game's few inventive features are very likely to be lost on most who play it. [Holiday 2004, p.94]
