While fun and entertaining in its own right, Darkstone is a cumbersome game in a genre where there's a far better choices to opt for. The gameplay apes Diablo to the fullest, and the story is highly generic. Despite no serious flaws in its controls or UI, one constant irritation in Darkstone is the tendency to get snagged in doorways and corners. Outside this isn't an issue, but in the narrow corridors of the game's levels it's a common problem. Darkstone as a whole is unwieldy in all its PC mimicry, however it's comfortably playable. Try it if you're bored.
