Review: Right from the off you know ‘Shadowgate VR: The Mines of Mythrok’ is going to be a big adventure. From the first moment till the last this game looks amazing, but they say beauty is only skin deep. So it is a good thing this game has the depth and gameplay to back it up. Sure, the combat is a little basic, but it is also satisfying and at times a little challenging. Fans of classic D&D will love this more than most, but it really isn’t required because there is enough storyline and action to keep even action newbies happy. I really can’t recommend this one enough and I would love to see some DLC for it.
