The Shadow Hearts series is a series of horror/role-playing games that had moderate success and a definite following. The series is unusual in several ways: The Judgement Ring – Character action success, especially in combat, are determined by how well a player can hit “marks” on a spinning dial. This added a visceral element to the usual turn-based activity. The Shapeshifter – In the Shadow Hearts game one character (Yuri in the first two, Shania in the last one) can change forms in battle, and unlock new forms. Sanity – A popular element of pen and paper RPGS, there was a sanity mechanic in the game. As combat wears on characters loose sanity and if they loose it all, they behave erratically.
