What's the story like on this game? it's not a dungeon type grind fest is it?

There is some story, but mostly you're left guessing. Not really sure if could be called a grindfest either, as it's focused on real time combat. There are NPCs, and they have their own backgrounds and motivations - although they're not always clear. How you play and what factions you choose/is tricked into influence the ending.

Think Resident Evil 1/Castlevania SotN/Bushido Blade in a Fighting Fantasy setting.

Guess I may go pick it up. Something different in the collection than the usual.
