Torchlight

Torchlight by Runic Games is a Fantasy RPG or Roll Playing Game set in the town of Torchlight.  Torchlight is a mining town who’s main economy is the mine which is infested by monsters.   It’s up to you to clear the mine for the townspeople.  You can choose to be a Destroyer, Vanquisher or Alchemist.

Torchlight has a slightly cartoonish look which covers up some of the violence and the graphics are pretty good for an RPG.  The game is easy to understand and the controls are very intuitive.

One original and interesting part of the game is your pet who helps you in your mission.  The pet can be a dog, cat or your own creation.  You can go fishing and if you choose to feed the fish to your pet he will change into another beast with different characteristics.  What he changes into will depend on the type of fish you caught.

Torchlight does have a minor glitch, if there are too many characters on the screen the game will slow down.  This may be an annoyance to some.

Torchlight doesn’t bring anything new to this genre it is very well designed and my husband hasn’t played anything else since he received it.
