The fifth member of the order, bent on revenge, makes use of the only way to stop them and summons another Devourer: this one is different from his siblings.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms has an innovative dual-world mechanic and multi-character system that players find genuinely fresh for the action RPG genre, but the game suffers from significant technical problems including crashes on startup, unfinished content, bugs, and incomplete features that make it feel like an unpolished early version. Players also criticize the aiming controls as problematic, and many feel the game is overpriced relative to its state and the separately-sold full version.

Not recommended Jun 5, 2023
This pathetic semblance of a game cannot even be called a finished game. This is pure and simple the early unfinished version of Shadows: Awakening. You can't pass achievements and some tasks, not everything is given to you by the dlc and full of bugs and unfinished things. And they have the audacity to sell it at this price and they sell it anyway. Given that they sell the whole game separately from this one at the same price. Shame on you creators and also Steam for allowing these things.

Shadows: Heretic Kingdoms, developed by Games Farm and published by Kalypso Media Digital, is an action RPG that tries to stand apart in a genre dominated by titles that often follow the same blueprint. Instead of copying the formula, the game introduces a distinctive mechanic: the ability to shift between the physical world and a shadow realm, with each plane affecting both exploration and combat. You play as the Devourer, a demon bound to the souls of fallen heroes, who can assume their forms and use their unique abilities. This dual-world, multi-character system is the heart of the game and provides a genuinely fresh experience within the ARPG landscape. Set in a dark and mystical fantasy universe, the narrative takes place after the events of Kult: Heretic Kingdoms. The world is fractured by war, mysticism, and the lingering influence of a secretive order called the Penta Nera. What gives the story an edge is its premise: instead of being a hero destined to save the world, you are a demon who manipulates events from behind the scenes. The game offers various heroes to resurrect, each with their own backstory, motivations, and fighting styles. Through their eyes—and through the…
