Computergamers has written a review of Pool of Radiance - Ruins of Myth Drannor. Not too enthusiastic with a final score of 72/100, but they have some nice things to say about this game, too (before having some complaints again):
Spell casting in the game is a lot of fun. There are a wide variety of spells (at higher levels) and each has their own graphic. As well, the spell casting interface is menu driven. Click the icon and a menu appears. Click on the spell level choice and the available spells appeared on a menu as well; then simply choose the spell of your choice. This is a nice feature and allows the player to play the game without a legend to understand what each spell icon means. One problem I had with the game was a lack of variation in the scenery. The first dungeon you venture into is HUGE! The entire first floor is stone worked, and I admit that the first time I saw it I was impressed. However, after clearing the level and finding the exit to the next level, I was ready for a change of pace. Instead, I got another huge level and exactly the same kind of landscape. This made the game visually disappointing, and took away from the over-all effect. |
