We are confident in that Dr. Cerebro will prove valuable for the whole team.

Does anyone have any impressions? Has anyone even seen any impressions for this? I can easily be convinced to jump at this price, but I won't do it entirely blindly.

I got into the alpha via that IGN Prime deal.

I played it only for a bit but it seems neat enough. You control a small party of 3 and do action-rpg things using a sorta RTS-y interface with an isometric view. I did some quests, walked around, shot some guys. I am going to poke at it more today, but my very brief first impressions were generally positive.

I have played the alpha version. I can't say anything because it's supposed to be confidential, but what I can say about the developers is that they are very open to opinions and listen to the testers.

Because of the NDA I won't say much, but the game does have a lot of potential. It reminds me a lot of a Darkspore style gameplay with your party and skills that are usable. After playing a little bit of the Alpha, I'm definitely preordering this title for sure.

Apparently here I'm the only beta tester who didn't like the beta at all.
As the others, anyway, I can't say much more.

Interesting. I'll probably hold off for now, and maybe see if I can get a better sense for what I'd be getting. Thanks for the heads up folks.

I got into the beta but since I used my cousin's PC steam account on her PC for it and it runs only on win XP, i couldnt get the game to start. Krater only supports win 7
