Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The original Fate was the PG version of DIABLO: cartoonish graphics, simplified quests, very limited gore and a cute child/hero running, fighting (and fishing!) in armor. The dungeons were endlessly random, the beasts well deserving their fate and the weapons and trinkets imaginative (and surprisingly expensive!). Overall, very fun to play!
Its first sequel, Fate: Undiscovered Realms, offered more of the same in a second set of dungeons. And now the second sequel improves little beyond offering yet another set.
Very few things are new in this standalone incarnation. True, you can now choose amongst four races (Human, Shadow Elf, Half-Orc and Cogger). The best one is still Human, a true Jack-of-all-trades: Elves are agile but have a very hard time defending themselves; Orcs are clumsy tanks, strong but with low dexterity; whereas Coggers are strong geeks but with no magical abilities.
There are new armor sets, new weapons and spells and new pets. On the other hand, I could discern no change in the graphics and sounds compared to the previous installments.
Finally, the two previous dungeons each get twenty extra levels to explore and plunder. This is a steal because for the price I remember paying for the first game you now get both the original game and its first expansion. On the other hand, you may find exploring all three dungeons and completing one run-and-fetch quest after another a bit tedious. Nevertheless, it is still good casual fun.
RECOMMENDED.

Face the Ultimate Challenge in FATE: The Traitor Soul The Book of Fate rests on the altar before you.The liberation of Grove made you a hero, but this act has ensured your immortality in the halls of legend.The Book has returned.The Realms are safe.
Your armor clatters on stone as you sit on the cold floor of the temple.Few would recognize the youth who set off in search of adventure through the Dungeon Gate under the grime and soot that coats your skin and tarnishes the priceless artifacts you carry.Truly, you could no longer be called a youth, not after your time venturing into the darkness--your steel gaze speaks to the darkness that has followed you back.
And so, when the Traveler arrives, speaking of a test within the Temple of Fate, available to only the most dedicated of champions, you stand, confident that whatever spoils lie beyond the swirling portal will soon be yours.You are the hero of Grove, the Guardian of Fate--evil trembles at your every step.
It does not occur to you to question the motives of the snake-haired Traveller, weaving tales of a Chamber of Trials in which to prove your quality.It is only natural that such a test would come to one as accomplished as you.So it is with confidence that you step forward, ready to face whatever challenges lie ahead.
The portal is dark, reflective, and as you approach the chill breeze issuing forth gives you pause.Your actions are mirrored by the image on the other side, but... the eyes.The eyes have a malice you have known only in the heat of battle, a cruel stare you recognize but have resisted at every turn.You advance through the portal even as your breath catches in your throat.What lies beyond is no common threat, no clear villain.The darkness you face is your own.
