    Once it receives some necessary content updates, it will be yet another quality indie homage to the legendary RPGs of the 90s. Until then, it is mainly recommended for those who are impatiently looking for their next RPG, or for AtomTeam fans who want to support the developers.

    Swordhaven: Iron Conspiracy is a high-quality RPG that offers plenty of variety and autonomy to the player. The classless character system is a bold decision that sticks the landing, the combat works really well in both modes and the missions are mostly fun and engaging. All of that is not enough to forge an identity, and the game fails to do so due to a remarkable lack of personality in aesthetics, music and writing.

    Cursed City gets Swordhaven: Iron Conspiracy to where it should have been at launch. The underground arc closes a narrative gap that left the original release without a satisfying ending. The group-wide skill check fix reshapes party building in a meaningful way, and makes the whole thing approachable for players who never touched the Infinity Engine games. Combat balance across weapon types is still unresolved, and the companions remain thin on the page. But for anyone looking for a classless isometric cRPG with sharp writing and a narrative that rewards patience, there is a solid game here now.
