The plot of Zenith takes place in a fantasy world with a dose of science-fiction elements. The player assumes the role of Argus – a wizard, who after his thirtieth birthday decides to settle down. Sadly, just before his well-deserved retirement, he manages to bring the world on the brink of apocalypse. As a result, all is left to do is to attempt to save the world from the imminent danger.
The story told in the game includes a serious dose of specific humor. The whole game is rather linear, while the further story is revealed to us mainly through dialogues.
The gameplay in Zenith for PC, PS4 and XONE is based on two main elements. First element is the exploration and completing main and side quests. During the gameplay, we visit not only idyllic plains, but also crowded streets of medieval settlements, grim dungeons, or even industrial, technology-filled areas. The fantasy world contains many secrets and valuables for an adventurous player.
Battling enemies is the mainstay of the game – even if we cannot choose the hero‘s specialization, Argus has various abilities that he can apply in battle. Our way is crossed by weaker, easy to beat opponents, as well as powerful enemies that require applying certain tactics to win. The encounters take place in real time, making the game very dynamic. The character growth also enables collecting better equipment – however, individual elements aren’t visible on the character model.
Zenith for PC, PS4 and XONE is characterized by high-quality, three-dimensional visuals. Spectacular animations accompanying attacks, as well as detailed environments also have their undeniable appeal. The visuals are complemented by a unique soundtrack.

Readers Gambit: 5 / 10 by Rhys Thom
I struggle to find much positive about Zenith, it's like a movie with a great script acted out by children on the worst stage possible.
Digitally ed: 2.5 / 5 by Matt Sainsbury
Zenith’s gameplay issues don’t stop it from being a very workable system in a very entertaining genre. If it was devoid of its plot (or, better yet, with a more interesting narrative), I’d actually be arguing that it’s an enjoyable little game. However, the relentlessly juvenile attempts at humour never let up, and I didn’t laugh once. I think that says all that needs to be said about Zenith’s fundamental issues.

It’s pretty funny, and that alone can make it worth a playthrough.
