RPG Gamers summary

In Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree by developer Dark Willow Studios, players can anticipate over 40 hours of immersive gameplay in a poignant, dark fantasy world. This role-playing action game offers a richly detailed setting complete with full English voice acting, meticulously planned locations, and a haunting original score.

Players are thrust into the role of an Inquisitor, a faithful servant of the King Priest in the imperiled world of Faelduum. From the bustling grandeur of Crimson City to the grim realities of Entropy, gamers will journey through diverse landscapes. The narrative, artfully penned by esteemed video game writer Brian Mitsoda, branches into different paths that lead to the heart of the rapidly deteriorating world, inviting players to dig deeper into the game’s intricate lore.

This game’s combat system is heavily inspired by the popular ‘Soulslike’ genre, involving a combination of strategic weapon usage and spell casting. Players can choose from six distinct classes, including Vanguard, Flameweaver, Spellbinder, Nightshade, Wyldwarden, and Vindicator. Each class offers unique weaponry and skills for players to master, imparting versatility and depth to the gameplay.

In addition to the intricate combat system, crafting is a key feature in this game, with hundreds of items to create. Moreover, players can shape their characters’ abilities through six talent trees, thereby further personalising their style of play. A unique aspect of the game is its difficulty setting, which can be adjusted to suit newcomers to the action RPG genre or Soulslike games.

Following completion, players can restart the game with New Game Plus, offering greater challenges and the opportunity to explore Faelduum all over again, but this time as a formidable, experienced Inquisitor.

As an action RPG swathed in dark fantasy, Mandragora: Whispers of the Witch Tree is ambitious, managing to skillfully blend engrossing narratives, complex combat, and expansive world-building. As it currently stands, this game holds potential for both ardent fans of RPGs and newcomers to the genre.
