Haven't seen one of those for a long time, but since it has now been published in one package (instead of all episodes seperately), Action Trip reviewed the six episodes as a complete game - and rated it 70%. Here's a bit:
As I already mentioned, one of the most important elements of the game are your dialogues with NPCs. If you want to fully experience this game, you will have to be very patient and concentrated - Siege of Avalon puts the plot and the dialogues before combat and exploration. The game uses a classical point-and-click interface, which is far from innovative, but definitely functional. The game is based on RPG books and stories dating from the time before we started playing RPGs on our computers and this can be seen by the way the story develops, and by the way the character perceives it... as the game progresses, your character will frequently update his journal, writing down his thoughts, and it can grow up to dozens of pages!
Siege of Avalon is a typical medieval CRPG with an isometric view and nice graphics. Characters and objects are small, but extremely detailed. The inventory has the already forgotten "paper doll" system, which makes your character look exactly the way you dress him up. You can only carry a limited amount of objects, so pay heed as to what you need and what you don't. |
