I see the same picture on the Laghaim website as on the Savage Eden website, which exists for a bit longer then Laghaim.

See them here:

And tell me what you think.

    They're the same game, so is biosfear, all 3 are game game with different names because of different countries, I think ones korean, ones european, ones north american.

    Or it could actually just be bought from a 3rd party artist in which case someone else could also buy and use his images which may be the case in this instance.

    Edit: Ya, never played any of those games but I'd agree, they're the same game anyhow.

    It's nonsence, if you make the same game, then give it the same name!

    That is correct. Same game, different locales

    Looks like it's the exact same game. So I guess we won't see a title called Lagheim in the list.

    Heh, just look to the Dragon Warrior series. In America it's called "Dragon Warrior" but elsewhere it's called "Dragon Quest" I believe...

    Hehe, missing the point. The SAME company is responsible for all 3. (Different companies do the localization...but still.) No copyright infringement or anything...

    BiosFear and Savage Eden are licensed "clones" of the original Laghaim.  It is important to note that each company is free to modify their own version of the game - so over time they will likely be different than each other in many ways.

    We don't feature Laghaim on our list because we only feature games that support full in game English.
