The grannies from the Armchair Empire have sat back and knit together a nice little review of Troika's 'The Temple of Elemental Evil'. Rating: 8/10.I was excited when The Temple of Elemental Evil arrived in the mail. I have played and reviewed a number of role-playing games in the past year, but most of the games were real-time, action-oriented titles like Morrowind, Grandia Xtreme, Neverwinter Nights, and Dungeon Siege. As a near-elderly gamer who still counts the Interplay classic Wasteland as my favorite RPG of all time, I looked forward to an old-fashioned, turn-based game set in the venerable World of Greyhawk from the classic Dungeons and Dragons years. Now that I have played through The Temple of Elemental Evil, I can’t say that it completely met my expectations, but despite an almost unbelievably high number of bugs, the game is enjoyable and, if one is able to look over said bugs, can be quite addictive. |
