Lore aside, Kivi's Underworld is a perfect example of why certain game genres will never completely die off. Kivi's Underworld is a classic third person Hack and Slash with considerable cast of characters and an entertaining storyline that is reminiscent of the days of yore when Polyhedrons ruled the tabletop and DMs were a deity.
The player starts off playing as Kivi, though with some time and successful missions, the player will slowly begin to recruit new playable characters to his cause. Each character has his or her own job, specialty and play style and any active character can be used to play in any chapter of the game, regardless how new the character is or if the mission had been previously completed. I'll get back to that shortly.
This is a good old fashion Hack and Slash where points matter. The more treasure you find, the more bad guys you dispatch and more the hidden secrets you discover, the higher your score and that will directly influence your end-of-mission rewards.
