Sacred sets out to be little more than you’re typical hack and slash feast but with gorgeous graphics and a storyline/sound effects to match, but why shouldn’t we all devour it anyway?

Fun, addictive and quite compelling, although the repetitive nature of the gameplay does it no favours and certainly won't win over those who require something a little deeper and more meaningful. The game at least captures some of the spirit of "Diablo."

I was addicted again for days to the Plus version despite playing the original over half a year ago. The thing with Sacred is despite all its flaws it keeps you coming back for more and that for me is the sign of a quality RPG.

One of the WORST Diablo Clones to ever come out. The gameplay is janky and awful, especially for it's time and the game gets mogged a year later by the dungeon crawler FATE. The characters are annoying to a major degree. Side quests are bugged and broken to a point where there's some you straight up can't do. Though on top of all these other issues there's a great if odd soundtrack and some interesting landscapes. That being said I can't at all recommend this game to you if you are a fan of Diablo or it's clones. This game was in fact so bad i didn't bother finishing at the endgame as it became repetitive and frankly boring to such a degree that i started dreading actually clicking play as the game itself felt more like a job than an actual video game

Наиграл в своё время миллион часов в неё, но прошёл лишь единожды. Игра очень атмосферная, у неё крутой саундтрек, что затягивает в неё надолго. Отмечу три жирных минуса: 1) Система развития. Игрок мало на что влияет. 2) Постоянный респаун врагов. Крайне утомляет. 3) Локации запоминаются и в них можно вернуться, но в этом абсолютно нет никакого смысла. А хотелось бы побегать по некоторым из побольше. Вместо необъятного размера мира, я бы хотел его более проработанным. Здесь же всё выливается в линейное прохождение сюжета и параллельных (крайне унылых) побочных заданий.

Sacred made me forget how disappointed I have been with many RPG’s over the last few years, was wonderful to play, and provided many hours RPG paradise.

There are no breakthroughs in terms of general design involved, but the open-ended gameplay and an admirably lengthy single-player campaign is enough to the fancy of any gamer. If we disregard the relatively weak plotline, this is really an enjoyable RPG experience with enough content and replayability to keep you occupied for days.

Recuerdo cuando tenia 8 o 9 años y lo jugué por primera vez, fue mi primer RPG y si bien no es lo mejor de lo mejor, este juego es mi infancia y mi introducción al mundo de los juegos de rol, la historia es muy gratificante. OJO si esperan un juego muy complejo con decisiones que afecten tu progreso este juego NO es para ti, pero si esperas sumergirte en una historia decente en un mundo abierto de fantasía entonces SI debes jugarlo. 100% recomendable.

I remember I played Sacred in the demo version at a friend's house. I was so crazy about the game that I had to buy a pirated version, because I couldn't find it to buy an original. A great game from the genre Hack n Slash. It cost me hours of immersion and fun.

If you’ve already played the "Baldurs Gate" series, and find yourself eager for another world to immerse yourself in, give Sacred a try and I’m sure you wont be disappointed.

A great-looking, generally solid action role-playing game that provides a few interesting gameplay innovations...But its combat system is also somewhat finicky and unrewarding, which is a significant problem for what's fundamentally a hack-and-slash RPG.

Hopelessly addicted RPG enthusiasts will probably not be able to resist its allure but you won't find any lasting peace and happiness deep down in your soul once you've completed it. Next!

It just plods along in mediocrity from start to finish, smiling contently all the way. And there's nothing innately wrong with that. There just isn't anything innately right with it either. [July 2004, p.58]

A somewhat interesting action/RPG title underneath all the terrible flaws.

It seems like a decent enough game, except the devs didn't think to include the ability to change screen resolutions. So I'm stuck playing this game on a widescreen monitor at some abysmally low resolution with huge black borders everywhere (even on the top and bottom). Also, for some idiotic reason the whole game looks squashed horizontally, which is stupid considering the big black borders :P everytime i try and start playing the game, I get pissed off at how everything looks so squashed and i give up. Maybe sometime in the future i'll give it another go. but for now it deserves a 2.
SummarySacred's Dynamic World of Exploration. Unlike any other fantasy action RPG, Sacred offers players an enormous world comprised of 16 regions with virtually unlimited opportunities for exploration. This world contains highly detailed landscapes, complete with villages and towns and even a day/night cycle with varying weather systems. Regio... Read More
