After their second server move in a short period of time, RPGCodex is back and kicking with a review of Arx Fatalis. No numerical rating given there, but this is the conclusion they offer:
Despite its flaws, Arkane Studios and JoWood Productions have made a worthwhile effort at creating a very playable game that manages to hold its own against other contenders in the market. Certainly, Arx Fatalis isn't one for the casual gamer. However, if you don't mind the niggling interface and the tedious/interactive 'features', Arx Fatalis will definitely hold your time with its interactivity, puzzles, enjoyable quests, and variety of underground locations. |
