    <a href="http://www.computerandvideogames.com">Computer and Videogames.com</a> have posted a brief <a href="http://www.computerandvideogames.com/r/?page=http://www.computerandvideogames.com/reviews/reviews_story.php(que)id=85579">review</a> of the second <a href="http://www.shadowflare.us/">ShadowFlare</a> installment. They aren't at all impressed, giving it a score of 35/100.

    <blockquote>What's the difference between the two episodes, then? Not much. I've upgraded to warrior status and moved from constantly clicking the left-mouse button to constantly clicking the right. This activates my character's unlimited special move, which kills new enemies tolerably faster as long as I constantly consume medical tablets and don't worry too much about any offensive/ defensive tactics short of clicking until everything's dead. Not that it stops episode two being as derivative, repetitive, and as undeserving of your time as the first one. Roll on episode three.</blockquote>

    If you want to find out for yourself, the first episode is of course available on the <a href="http://www.shadowflare.us/"> website</a> for free. Hooray.

    I played the beta of the first episode when they ofered it for people to help with the english translation. It was free, almost anonimous and no questions asked, so I went for it.
    The first time was OK, just going through it remembering when I had good times playing diablo. The second (and last) time I mastered the art of using your pet (a wolf) and was almost invincible. There's no enemy too hard if you know how to use your pet.

    Didn't finnish it (too lazy & not as much free time as b4), but if you had fun with diablo you'll probably have fun with this game.

    At least I had :oops:
