The Incredible Adventures of Van Helsing . New just out May.
PC - STEAM - Cheap - Diablo-esque action RPG. - Single & Multiplayer.
You get 2 controllable characters Van Helsing & his perky Spirit Girlfriend
Katarina.
There chat is witty & funny - game doesn't take itself seriously.
Looks pretty - 3rd person isometric, just like 'this-sort-o-thing' has
always been.
You bash your way along a basically straight Linear route from the
beginning to the Evil Scientist end Boss.

"... hack'n'slash rpg for low price.
Design, music, sounds, scenery, rpg-system match highest standards.
....great companion with hilarious sense of humour."
"Victorian/steam punk world with science gone wrong"
"The game really doesn’t do anything new, but the things it does are done
extremely well.
If you are a fan of Torchlight II and Diablo III...."
