Game description: In an unexpected twist of fate, the spirit of an evil king is unleashed and possesses the shadow of an innocent young boy named Ari. While wielding the burden of an evil being, Ari and his friends must journey across a wonderfully animated, whimsical world. You'll discover new environments, solve puzzles, and battle more than 100 enemies. Engage in action-packed battle sequences where allies and enemies fight simultaneously and in real-time.

Playable... but native res is 640*448 and it slows down pretty fast when many characters are on screen..., Characters' shadows look bad in hardware, OK in software... | |

Needs software rendering with GSdx (F9) to avoid character shadows and blurry image issues while using dx9/11 hardware mode., | Joder666 |

Game works with hardware rendering only on GSdx 10. Anything higher than 4X native resolution causes noticeable slowdown. I did notice the blur that was mentioned above, but was able to get rid of it with anisotropic filtering and texture filtering enabled. Bios V2.0 was used. | Zrooney |
