The Inquisitor is a dark role-playing game. Prepare for a medieval drama with maximum style and great emphasis on details. It brings you, a medieval inquisitor, to a gloomy world full of heresy, betrayal and devilish plots. You will hunt after perpetrators of the most atrocious crimes and you will meet a lot of cunning enemies. You will find yourself in the midst of a powerful conspiracy striving to destroy even the foundations of the thousand-year old Empire.
The game follows the investigation of various crimes, and players aim to expose malefactors, gain evidence against them and to prove them guilty in court, using both the canon law and the secular law of the Empire. One of the most important laws is the Inquisitional codex which lays down the rules and principles of the inquisitional process. And it’s the codex that governs your methods and action while hunting for heretics and witches who threaten the whole Empire with their obscure plots.
Ultherst was once a peaceful, God-fearing land until the Three Scourges of God came to pass as foretold by Saint Ezekiel, one of the twelve followers of the First Prophet. First came the famine that devastated the populace. Next came the plague that added more unfortunate souls on Death’s abacus. Finally came the great rain of fire, and death fell down on sinner and innocent alike, blood flooding the streets in place of water. The people, in their desperation, turned away from the Holy Mother Church and delved deep into pagan decadence or succumbed to the temptation of the Devil. You have been charged with the office of Inquisitor. It is up to you to investigate crimes against the one true faith and root out heresy--using any and all means necessary. Inquisitor is a unique blend of action-oriented combat with a deep and involving tale of betrayal, torture, madness, and infernal damnation.

Aww ****-it, who the hell am I kidding?...I'm getting it any-******'-ways!
I was sort of on the fence on buying this game, until I read this guy's experience with the gameplay.
Steamcommunity.com
I consider such gameplay too much of a chore, which is too bad, as the game sounds excellent otherwise...And no, stun-locks and mandatory potion chugging is not difficult, just tedious...
This game is in dire need of a community-made mod to (at the very least) fix up on the frustrating pre-diablo1 combat system. Spell casting is also broken. Other than that the game's premise and story content is so immersive and brilliantly atmospheric! Would be such a waste to have it rot away due to lazy programming and technical imbalances.
In regards to the combat system i would suggest a more tactical approach i.e. turn-based. It doesnt necessarily even need to be that rigid, a compromise could also work example: a combat pause option to give time to view the battle and prepare more fluently on the selection and casting of spells.
Any small amount of fixes would make this already brilliant game simply perfect!
Congratulations on getting greenlit.

So now that it's released on Steam, is there the possibility to receive a Steam key if you've already bought it here?
Contacted them through their website and got my key. Thanks again!
Stellar game, challenging and perfect for people who really appreciate story and a challenge. I've barely started playing it really, however I'm engrossed already. Good work!
You are totally right, but for me the Challenge is too hard, because I am more used to Battle focused RPG. The Athmosphere of this Game, the Graphics, really great. But Sometimes I just wish to kill lots of Enemies, do some Quest just by talking to someone, following an Arrow on the Minimap and come back for a reward. Maybe in the Future, I am taking the Challenge. By Now, I reached about 22 Levels with the Paladin, but it was a really long term and I solved most Quests with pure Luck and trying all possible Dialogues.
