[edit] Story
The player takes the part of Wolfhound as he attempts to avenge himself on those who destroyed his clan, murdered his parents and enslaved him as a young boy. The setting is based on the fantasy novel Wolfhound (Волкодав, 1995, by Maria Semyonova) somewhat popular in the modern Russia.
[edit] Gameplay
Gameplay is simple, the player simply clicks to move and clicks on other characters to talk to or attack them. Wolfhound has three main skills, unarmed combat, melee weapons and ranged attacks, and four main characteristics, Constitution, Strength, Dexterity and Speed. The player can upgrade his abilities as he gains experience and choose new special feats such as a special attack to knock an enemy down, skills improve through use. The player must explore the landscape, complete quests, become more powerful and find better weapons, armour and equipment in order to complete his quest.
[edit] Reception
The game received negative reviews highlighting the poor graphics and sound, repetitive and linear gameplay, lack of character customisation and generic cliched setting.
