The combat has a surprising amount of depth to it and it never gets too complicated remaining smooth throughout your time with the game. There are quite a few puzzles present in the game and I must admit that I was impressed with how creative and well-designed some of the puzzles were. In terms of content there is a decent amount for you to get to grips with and the hidden secrets the game has give it quite a bit of replay. The level design is simple yet effective and the game encourages you to explore at all times. There isn’t much in terms of a story and what there is doesn’t stand out very much. Grinding plays a big part in getting upgrades and this can make things become a little tedious at times. The game could’ve been a bit more challenging because I found it to be very easy. Does Shalnor Legends: Sacred Lands do enough to get a recommendation from me? From the moment you start this game you can feel a Zelda vibe and this does trickle into the gameplay. Don’t get me wrong it isn’t a Zelda clone though because it does feature its own unique spin on things and when the game’s in full flow you end up having a very enjoyable and immersive experience because of this. In terms of content there is a decent amount for you to be getting on with and it’s varied enough to keep you coming back for more. I would however have liked the content to be a little more challenging because it didn’t really cause me any problems at all and I never felt in danger once. That being said even though the game is easy it still didn’t stop the very good combat from being satisfying and when you combine that with the well-designed puzzles you end up having a great time. This then means that Shalnor Legends: Sacred Lands gets a solid thumbs up from me because there’s something for everybody in this game.… Expand
