Once you get in the city and you’re quickly thrown into whatever it is that’s going on. I’ll never find out either way, because I did not have it in me to finish this game. If you free the city, you will get your freedom. You are seeking a pardon from the king of whatever country you fought and lost against in some great war that’s never quite explained. But, anyway, I’m digressing because this isn’t about any of that. A king overthrown and his shoulders relieved from the weight of his head. The English Civil War at mid-century was a flash in the darkness of what was to come 100 years later. A world on the cusp of something much different. A period piece game set in the 17th century could have been interesting it was a weird time. (Some of this I gleaned from the game itself, others I took from the materials provided in the media kit explaining the lore.)Īnd, I dunno, I thought I was jumping into something a bit different. There’s also roving cultists, followers of Mephisto, who have an antidote for the fog but it involves some kind of blood sacrifice. Not because of plague or something real, mind you, but by a mysterious fog that kills people. A continental European free city of some sort, that’s been closed off to the world. The story begins outside the gates of Grant. Seemed fun!īut, well, this is all my fault. That’s all I knew when I was offered a chance to review the game. I saw that Black Legend was set in the 17th century, after some kind of war, and that in order to get the king’s pardon you had to go free a town from something. So, I have to say, some of this is my own fault.
