The Entertainment Depot has written a review of Geneforge, which is, in my humble opinion, a very entertaining game despite the dated graphics. They feel the same way and rated it 8.5/10. This is their summary:
Spiderweb Software has a habit of besting itself with every release, a habit that very much lives on through Geneforge. Its successful blend of classic visuals and rich gameplay is every bit as addictive as the engrossing storyline that accompanies it, and the drastic improvements to its interface only help to broaden its appeal. The unique twists and ideas littered throughout help to solidify its status as an eminently replayable game, making its minor missteps almost imperceptible. With atmospheric, deep-seated old-school appeal and a deep, multifaceted storyline that one could expect to find within the pages of a fantasy novel, Geneforge is a terrific example of how classic RPG fans can have their cake and eat it too. |
