Press reviews: “Offers a classic RPG experience. Engrossing narrative. Hours of enjoyable gameplay.” 4/5 – Mac|Life “As simple as it looks, it’s one of those games that’s very easy to fire up for a few minutes, only to be magically transported without supper to 5AM the next day.” – Rock, Paper, Shotgun “In the end, Avadon: The Black Fortress has everything a good RPG needs. Strong story and characters, great combat, excellent quests, addictive loot and leveling and high replayability.” – Inside Mac Games “I want an immersive game backed by a developer with integrity, and a desire to win fans one at a time. Spiderweb has that, and I hope they continue to honor us with games such as this one.” 5/5 – Adrenaline Vault “This is a big, chunky game that retro RPG fans should absolutely adore.” 4.5/5 – Digitally Downloaded “Anybody who pines for the days of the older, massive classics and decries the state of the new streamlined, big-budget RPGs needs to put their money where their mouth is and buy this game.” 90% – RPGFan
