Telekinesis can lift you up, but it can also let you down.

Given the choice, I will always play as a mage, a wizard, or some kind of magical being. I love superpowers of all sorts well over physical prowess or agility. The first game by stillalive studios, Son of Nor, on its surface, seems designed to appeal to me with its set of magical abilities. However, some outdated and messy elements coupled with a lackluster story mar the experience entirely.

Despite the title, players can choose between male or female avatars whose appearances are customizable to a degree. Humans are the titular sons of Nor, the goddess of the night in this mythology. Their mortal enemy, the Sarahul, bi-pedal lizard people, are sons of Lur, goddess of the sun. In the past, the Sarahul nearly wiped all humans out, but some escaped to a secret enclave, The Edge, where peace reigned until they were found. So begins a rather convoluted yet mildly mundane story.
