I think we have a little gem of the CRPG genre here, which has gone under the radar, especially internationally. That's a shame, because I think this German role-playing game is one of the most interesting of its kind. I found the basic mood of the game very unique and beautiful. It is simply a very idyllic, beautiful autumn fantasy world that was presented to me here. Of course there is also a "dramatic story" and dark machinations that need to be stopped, but all in all I found the game really rather relaxing and simply beautiful. It's not particularly deep, but it's not trying to be a Planescape or anything like that. It feels more like a European answer to Baldur's Gate to me and that makes the game really good. The systems are based on DSA, but that didn't necessarily make it that hard for me to understand them. On the contrary, I had more problems understanding D&D as a child. I somehow got into it really well, which makes the game very beginner-friendly. If you're a fan of classic western role-playing games, you should at least take a look, I thought it was really well done.
