Gameplay
The gameplay of Realms of Chaos was like the standard action platformer commonly found on consoles. At any time the player can switch between two siblings, a warrior called Endrick and a sorceress named Elandra, depending on which character is better suited to the particular situation. It consists of three episodes, with only the first episode playable in the shareware version.
Reception
Ole Albers from German magazine PC Joker gave it a score of 54%.[3] A review in Power Unlimited, on the other hand, was much more positive and rewarded the game with an 8 out of 10.[4][5]
