About the game

Face the last challenge - determine destiny! A new threat casts its shadow over the Southern Isles. A mysterious demon, consumed by hatred, terrifies the population and pools his force against the coastal city of Setarrif. The dramatic situation exacerbates after a volcanic eruption in the mountains nearby.

The value story

It has been discounted 93 times in the 14 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 75 percent, about 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.

It is pricier than 78 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. ArcaniA ($19.99, scores 2) and ELEX II ($49.99, scores 32) both outscore it.

What players say

If you thought ArcaniA somehow needed less game, congratulations: Fall of Setarrif is here to answer the question nobody asked. I finished this thing in 100 minutes. That's not a typo. I've had character creators take longer than this expansion. This isn't an expansion, it's a side quest that escaped containment and got sold separately. Some of my favorite features: - the game proudly lets you import your endgame...

ArcaniA: Leftovers This is a standalone expansion that picks up the story immediately after the ending of the main game. However, it feels far more like a short, underwhelming DLC than a proper expansion, ultimately lacking in both quality and quantity. I can only recommend this to die-hard fans of ArcaniA. Pros: You can transfer your character directly from the main game. Great soundtrack and decent voice acting...
