About this game

The ultimate Western action RPG has arrived on Android! Embark on an epic dark fantasy in the grand tradition of great, story-driven RPGs from PC and console, created by veterans of the Neverwinter Nights, Baldur’s Gate, and The Witcher franchises.

With The Shadow Sun, Ossian Studios brings together all its expertise from working with Dungeons & Dragons and The Witcher in order to create a deep, story-driven RPG experience for Android. Prepare yourself for visceral real-time combat, a gorgeously detailed world to adventure in, complex characters to interact with, and an epic tale of an ancient city held within the grip of a mysterious plague.

Enter a world that has felt an alien touch upon its sun. An ever-increasing shadow that creeps across the sun's brilliant face, with consequences that are only now becoming horrifically apparent...

Ratings and reviews

The game itself is well worth the price. If it feels *short* to anyone, it's coz they're comparing it with PC games. Most of all, the conversations and music set up a better ambience than I had dared to hope for. All in all, I had a good time! P.S. Please roll out the next part(s), the story is very engaging!

Worth the current cost. 10 - 12 hrs of gameplay. The amount of quest is limited so choose your characters abilities wisely. Definitely worth multiple playthroughs. The story, gameplay, voices, sounds, and graphics are all top notch. The only con is that the animations are kinda blocky, and its hard to scroll up and down in the character menu.

Wow, what a find for 99 cents. It's an actual rpg that is very impressive for a mobile game. The little bonus starter pack for another dollar is nice. The game runs very well and the graphics are excellent for the price. This is a deal you gotta take.
