  home » pc games » tantra: portent of darkness

Although relatively late in the game, Tantra arrived on our local shores with much buzz. That's not suprising considering how lush and detailed the graphics of this game are.

Tantra is set in a mythical version of the Indian continent and is based heavily on hindu mythos. There are technically eight classes but only because the male and female versions of each general type are considered separate classes.

Lush environment

Tantra leaves most other MMORPGs choking in the dust in terms of video and audio. The game features a beautifully detailed 3D environment, and full 3D characters. The background music is also something to be particularly commended. Where many games have annoying repetitive BGMs, Tantra has a wonderful orchestrated soundtrack that adds immensely to the epic feel of the game. Character animations are also utterly lovely. If you've never played Tantra, you're really missing something!

Gee, we can't really help but gush about the game at this point. It looks simply fabulous.

Gameplay limitations

Like most of its Korean-born brethren, the game's only lack is in the gameplay which has a tendency to be hack and slash. Beautiful hack and slash, but hack and slash nonetheless. Quests in Tantra have a tendency to be little more than a farming / scavenger hunt type operation. It's a pity really, because there seems to be a well developed storyline behind the game. It's just that it's rather hard to find in the game itself.

But all in all, it's an enjoyable game with top-notch environment and graphics. Oh, and best of all, it's free!!
