Is it still worth playing?

War, one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, is the hero of this hack and slash action adventure, released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in January 2010 and for Windows in September 2010. The world is split into separate locations, many of them out of reach until later, with the Scalding Gallow at its center as a hub where War gets new objectives and paths. Opening new areas often needs abilities he gains along the way. He begins limited to his two handed sword, Chaos Eater, and later gets other weapons, including a scythe as his other main weapon, each with different combinations of attacks. A hub that opens as War grows stronger is still a reason to explore today.
