Description: “Luca… Luca, awaken.” “It is I, Diana, daughter of Jupiter, from the sacred grove of Nemorensis, goddess of the hunt and keeper of the moon. Hear my words.”

“Sixty years ago I created the Weapons of Virtue and gave them to mortals as a gift for prosperity. But now they have been stolen and corrupted with greed and evil by my husband, Vulcan, the God of Fire, Metal and All Things Baneful.”

“I see within you great virtue and perseverance. Claim your freedom and seek the Weapons of Virtue to wield for the greater good of humanity. Arm yourself and be a slave no more!”

Review: A Legend of Luca has a lot of potential that is for sure. If you enjoy playing retro dungeon crawler games this will be right up your street. While in VR it can be a little nauseating it can also be oddly immersive and I often found myself looking forward to seeing what is around the next corner. Sadly my interest in it soon wore off as it started to get repetitive far too quickly. This is one of those games that it is best waiting for a few updates. I luckily got my copy at a sale price, so I can imagine people paying full price might be a little disappointed.
