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 iOS. 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…
So its now free, but what's the story with the in-app purchases?
Have they always been there, or have they changed their strategy to make it pay to win.
Thanks for posting the deal and I've downloaded the game (plus vote given), but disappointed to see the in-app purchases on a game apparently worth $4.49 normally.
Edited: So reading into it a little more, the in-app purchases are extra content (the game itself is marketed as a "10 hour quest").
Very highly rated by a lot of different sites. Just hope I don't get hooked… my OzBargain blood refuses to pay for apps.
