'Spectral Souls' Review - Neverland Beckons in this Strategy RPG

Tuesday, August 7th, 2012

Neverland is a world that can only seem to scrabble toward peace, ruled in turn by demons and humans who just can't seem to find common ground. Spectral Souls [Free] brings us in at the start of an inevitable conflict between the two, when the Imperial Neverland Army of demons sets out to crush the rebellious Reformed Simba Empire of humans. This being a strategy RPG, it's pretty obvious that we'll be siding with the plucky and familiar humans, no?

Not quite. Spectral Souls does something a little unconventional: it tells us both sides of the story. It puts us in the shoes of the Neverland Army as it struggles to maintain its dominance. It sides us with the Simba Army, where we struggle to take back human territory and win freedom from our demon overlords. Eventually, it also introduces a third point of view—an idealistic group that hopes to find another way through this conflict. So which side is right? That's left up to us to discover and decide, one moment in history at a time.
