For those who missed out on Greedfall, the free-form RPG takes to an uncharted island steeped in magic and inhabited by mythical wildlife. As a colonial noble, you’re searching for a cure for a deadly disease but quickly get wrapped up in conflict involving the native population and other invading foreigners.
In his 7.25 out of 10 review, GI editor-in-chief Andrew Reiner highlighted the game’s strengths and weaknesses saying “GreedFall’s stories, world, and wealth of choices are fun to explore and can legitimately be great at times, but the problematic combat, reliance on conversation for quests, and lack of polish over everything hold it back, but Spiders is on to something and isn’t far off from having its first truly notable RPG.” You can read the full review here.
