Before you make this purchase allow me to give you both positives and negatives on this game. Lets start with the positive, The Graphics in the game is not bad, and work well with the game. The Story is ok. now we get to the game killing aspects of the game for me. The controls are mediocare at best, what makes this worse is that the game changes the camera angle in some instances making it worse, this is componded since you cant change the angle (as far as i could tell). I played the game as long as I could hoping that it would get better it just got worse. I promptly removed the game off my computer.
Possibly it gets better I do not know, but I do know I was glad I bought it during a Steam sell

I don't usually insult voice actors, because honestly, they don't get paid well enough and often get a lot of flack.
But this.... holy cow! The protagonist sounds like the text to speech wasn't even being paid enough.
The gameplay is... well, awful. I only got a little bit in and the first trap was enough to convince me it wasn't worth playing any further.
The controls are clunky. There are NO SETTINGS. At all. You can't change resolution, or add subtitles, or change the volumes, there are no settings, what so ever.
Honestly? Avoid this game, it's really awful.

The prequel to the "Garshasp: The Monster Slayer" game.
While the game is very short, 1,5 - 2hrs to beat it, I experienced the same dull combat like in the predecessor, but level design that is even more uninspired, more FPS drops, more bugs, and hilariously bad writing and cutscenes (the opening animation is comedy gold: "Well at least let's take a rest. I'm your brother. Can't you see I'm dying?!")
The only noteworthy thing is that the combat animations are slightly, slightly better.
Avoid.

Literally one of the worst games I have ever played with one redeeming value: It is mercifully short. If it did not crash or softlock so often, probably less than 1,5 hours, maybe even 1 hour.
Everything I could say has been said: Terrible controls, laughable animations with dated graphics, a camera that is actively fighting the player.
The first game was not that bad, even if it gave me a bluescreen and was dead after I saved my computer, I was only 15 minutes from finishing that. This one on the other hand is an insult to players. Trust the reviews, do not waste your time.

The voice acting is laughable (like, Ed Wood or The Room bad).
You'll fight with the camera more than you will with enemies.
Half of the boss fights the boss will be off camera somewhere doing... something... if you move around at all.
Controls are all over the place.
If you thought the original was badly designed, this prequel will blow your mind.

Like others have posted in their review, I enjoyed he first installment of Garshasp and thought it was undeserving of all the negative reviews it received.
This one, however, is just awful and deserves every unfavorable review it's gotten. Don't waste your time on this one folks.

Ths is the sequel to a reasonably enjoyable, and technically proficient hack and slasher, and all I can say is "Wow!"
I'd love to be saying "Wow" because the game is a stunning sequel to something that had potential, and because this game realizes that potential.....But, if the negative review doesn't give it away already....*drum roll*... it fails miserably.
First and foremost - I quite liked the first Garshasp game. It wasn't stunning, but it showed a decent level of craft. This game however is fairly sloppy, and really, really, really (REALLY!!!) short. I finished it on hard in an hour and forty minutes, which is disgraceful value for money.
The story and voice acting is utterly terrible. The camera, which was previously fixed, is now mildly dynamic - but often jittery, and frames the action awkwardly. Truthfully I think this is an unfinished game - despite it having a beginning and an end, its the bare minimum for qualifying as a "story" (a really bad story) and being a "game".
The worst thing is that up until the abrupt ending I would have said it was a more confident game than the first one, and despite the wonky camera it is fairly enjoyable. But then it went and threw all that away, with an annoying final boss, a ridiculously short play time and a seriously naff ending.
This is a pity, as up until that point it was a much better paced game than the previous one. In the end though it's one of the most shockingly poor games I've ever played....(and I played the playstation 1 version of Shadowman all the way to the end lol)

Buggy game, yes.. on rails, yes.. easy to jump to your death, YES!!.. but still scratches that fun tickle spot just right - if you can look past the 2008 style like graphics and barely servicable audio. Get it cheap! I would like to see the game reworked with this bugs/bad design glitches fixed then it might be something spectacular!
