RPGCodex has published a review of Prince of Qin, resulting in a rather positive summary:
Prince of Qin is a very nice CRPG for those who are looking for something different to play, other than D&D CRPGs or the traditional fantasy setting. In keeping with Chinese lore and tradition, the setting offers gameplay that's not too different from other CRPG settings that a new player will be confused by everything, but it does offer a highly unique flavor.
Most of the game's mechanics are fairly sound and consistant, with the exception of some of the cutscenes. The ability to make items in this game is very well done, including how the resources required for making items affect the item itself, as does your skill level. The craftsmanship on the setting was handled very well by the developers at Object Software who appear to specialize in making games with an ancient Chinese setting, such as their RTS game, Fate of the Dragon.
While the game does have some faults, many of the features of the game and the setting overshadow these. If you've been waiting for a CRPG set in the vast lore of ancient China, you'll probably enjoy this. If you're looking for a solid CRPG that doesn't force you to kill everything in order to get to the next level, then you might want to take a gander at this one. |
