Shadows of Undrentide is more difficult than Neverwinter Nights , mainly because money are hard to get and the item prices are outrageous. You scrap for every penny in order to " feed " two mouth . Taking care your henchman involve shopping / looting and Shadows doesn`t offer the same amount of magical items you are used to. The fights are reasonable though, except some sturdy NPC like the golems in Untrentide city or the devil in Beggar Tale - I now , he is weak against a proper weapons but you don`t stumble on this type on every corner. Also no weapon upgrade available in chapter 1 or interlude and one advantage - magical enemies are few and not so tough . The gameplay are the shiny part of this game, thanks to a well done script with many unexpected twists and puzzle solving that will keep you playing .
