About the game
Forged in the Beginning and protected by the Seven Seals, there lies a place where thought and creation intertwine. The center for all realms of existence, it is the balancing force between good and evil, man and spirit. A focal point for all energies, and the one element that has kept the consuming nature of darkness at bay... Until now.

It is basically Scorn with outdated visuals...

Healing is total nightmare does not work 80% of the time. The Vials green or red are healing potions. The healing scheme is trash. The rest is not great but acceptable. I for inventory, place your weapons in the inventory one after the other don't place ammo...
The game is a point and click adventure in the guise of a shooter. There are some complaints about a couple of the puzzles being cryptic but I think they're so in an acceptable level. The first person shooting of the game is substandard so don't play this for that reason. However the game has literally otherworldly vibes to it with a lot of interesting locations and the acted fmv scenes are well performed. My...
