Eternal Step is a strange case of having mixed concepts of very good and very lacklustre design.

Playing through this title feels like the result of some talented friends sitting around, talking about their dream game. While this could have resulted in a confusing gaggle of goofiness, Eternal Step is a worthy experience.
A decent concept and interesting loot system can't save this indie action title from mediocrity.
