The game, Kingdoms of Alamur: Reckoning is a fantasy style RPG. The game starts out with two gnomes walking with a cart talking, a body is covered and through the dialogue you discover the body under the cloth is another failed experiment of the “well of souls”, as the scene progresses you get to decide you characters appearance and name. After you finish the creative part the scene comes to an end with you being dumped into a pit where the rest of the failed experiments have gone. Later you wake up covered in the bodies of other experiments, you hear screaming in the background. You stumble down from the pile of decaying bodies and find a iron longsword. As you progress you come across one of the gnomes that dumped you into the pit, he becomes very excited when he realizes you where actually a success. He tells you to follow him to meet the professor, this quest is used as a tutorial where you are introduced to different types of weapons, from longswords to bows, daggers to magic staves. At the end of the quest you are introduced to the Professer who made the Well of Souls and he fends off some assassins sent to kill you, while you make an escape. You find out you are without a set destiny, in a world where a persons destiny is everything. Overall the gameplay is very fun and interesting. Its a mix of Fable and The Elderscrolls.
