I have been playing this for quite some time. It's a SP quest game with little story to it but its dungeon/cave crawling which is a lot fun. The characters are well drawn and the background music is quite good.

This weekend on Steam its only $9.99

quite a bargain for a lot of hours of play.

For $10 it's a deal. I played it all weekend. Love the dog, his inventory and his ability to run to town to sell your goodies. I found my first fishing hole! Too funny.

If you hold the shift key down and click, you can transfer items to you dog really fast through the inventory screens. Same goes for selling and buying at the stores. I also noticed that you can hold down the left button to have your toon follow the arrow continually instead of clicking to locations.

I just learned that you can Shift click on items and your pet will go fetch them into his inventory! Cool. It's a lot of addictive fun. I'm level 25 now somewhere around level 30 of the mines. A lot of clicking to kill the big baddies! I still haven't gotten the transmute vendor to work yet. Any secrets?

For the most part yes. I've played for about 2 months now and have had a lot of fun hours with it. But Christmas came along and so did Dragonage. :)

As for the transmuter, are you talking about the gems? if so you have to have the exact same kind and description. I usually stored all my gems in the chest that is in the center of town. When I had several matches, I would gather them up and go piece them together for mor powerful amber.

If you are talking about the enhance item thing, I found that to be mostly random and there is a chance of losing all powerups and making the item useless if you enhance it too many times.
