Mistmare is now available in the US. Here's the press release:
<br><blockquote><em>Mistmare makes its North America debut!
<br>
<br>Montreal, Quebec. July 3, 2003 –Strategy First and co-developers Sinister Systems and Arxel Tribe are happy to announce that Mistmare, a title that offers a unique blend of action, adventure and RPG elements has shipped to retail stores nation wide.
<br>
<br>“Mistmare takes gamers into a very different world,” says Steve Milburn, Director of Marketing for Strategy First. “The Dark Ages never ended and gamers will be faced with medieval weapons and magic with only their skills and intellect to help them survive.”
<br>
<br>The story goes… Isador, the inquisitor monk, is fighting his way across Europe, searching for a murderer the church has deemed the antichrist. But more than just cloudy skies stand in his way and the dense fog that protects the nation has become a Mistmare to be reckoned with.
<br>
<br>Mistmare is an addictive mix of action, adventure and RPG elements, shrouded in a veil of fog and excitement. Isador, a young monk, has been sent on a journey by the Church to find the leader of the Harvesters, a radical sect that is threatening the Church’s attempts at shielding Europe from the spread of the plague. Use an incredible arsenal of weapons and tools to fight off monsters and enemies as you search for the Harvesters and fight to protect Europe.

I'd probably buy this game if it didn't use point and click combat or if the combat was turn-based.
It's too bad that many developers don't realize how lame real-time point & click combat is. |

Well, Guest, 'bad' or 'good' mainly are matters of opinion. So even if in your opinion it's bad, others might like it. _________________ Jaz |

I think I am mistaken here.
This is one of the few occasions where a game has some reviews out before it reaches the US. I just suggested to read them before deciding to buy the game. Yes, most of the reviews aen't too favorable - but that doesn't mean YOU will not like the game.
I played the demo and wasn't too impressed. But again: this is MY opinion, not yours . _________________ Rendelius
