    Though the game starts out a little slowly, with crabs and goblins as your primary foes, the action picks up after a few levels and soon, the creatures you're fighting will alternately frighten and excite you.
  2. Game Revolution

    Rune kicks butt. It's easily the best hack n' slash game out there, chock full of bladed mayhem.
  3. Gamezilla!
    72
    Without a well-developed plot to lure you on and with redundant combat exercises to challenge and improve your ability, this is one Action title that may be best to pass on.

    The game is a blast. The visuals are amazing and the story really well thought out. Multiplayer is phenomenal.

    Reeks of averageness all around. Overly simplified arcade-like controls and player movement, very stupid enemy AI, basic visuals and simple "pull the lever"-puzzles. It didn't keep me insterested for long.… Expand
