Hack and slash D&D goodness. Light on plot, heavy on combat. Bring a cleric and a paladin! |

A pretty decent AD&D-based dungeon crawl. The story is surprisingly engrossing, and the art is top-notch. If you enjoyed the combat in the Baldur's Gate games, you owe it to yourself to check out this title. |

Excellenet! Excellent! Best of the Infinity Engine games. Great story, fantastic music, beautiful scenerey. Only two drawbacks was in party movement and the horrible expansion pack that cost too much money. |

Richly crafted hack 'n slash with many tactical elements. The look and feel of the gameplay, I feel, is far more polished than any of the Baldur's Gate titles. The gameplay never slows down, and you're always on your toes. Definately a gem. |

I had doubts about this game before I played it, advertised as just hack and slash without much story, but I was won over by this game. Basically just a linear dungeon crawl, nevertheless this game keeps you playing with its great combat system. The battles are challenging, but not too much so that makes it frustrating, and really make you plan things out.
The music is one of the best points. The Jeremy Soule (also doing Morrrowind) soundtrack was amazing! The art (both the world, and especially the character portraits) is stunning.
This game was definately worth it in my opinion. |

this is my favorite game of all time. The art is wonderful. I especially liked jason manleys character portraits and game art. The game backgrounds were great. It is by far the best of the infinity engine games. the music is very good too. it was very engrossing. the icewind books are my favorite too. this game added the same kind of quality to dungeons and dragons as the books did.
I cant say enough good things about it. |

Had all the good combat elements of Bulders gate plus you could create an entire party of your own design. Would have scored higher but the game is to linear and there for your experience felt a little too secluded. |

What a great game. Much better than Baldur's Gate. Smoother, better graphics, sound, and especially more focused and interesting. Giants weren't bad either. Shocking they couldn't get it when they did Heart of Winter. They figured it on thankfully when they published BG2 tho, thankfully. I hope IWD2 is as marginally good but I'm not looking forward to those 3rd edition garbage. |

More of a hack and slash dungeon crawler than epic story! If that's your niche (hack and slash) you'll enjoy this game but the rest of us should stay with the Baldur's Gate series. |

Excellent game for what it is: A combat heavy dungeon romp. The tactical combat is extremely well done. The dialog is top notch with variable NPC reactions. The backgrounds are beautiful and the music is excellent. |

IWD consists 99% of battles in Baldurs Gate style, but much more balanced and intresting ones than in BG itself making it the ultimate strategy game (its more a strategy game with a story and RPG character developement than an real RPG)for RPG'ers. At least for me.Cant wait to play IWD 2! |

A very good RPG in an awesome 2D heroic fantasy world. Really close to BG 2 in many aspects, it is however very linear and clearly shorter. Good party fights as you can start the game immediately with 6 characters. |

Hard to believe that IWD2 gets a higher rating here. Oh well. Hack & Slash all the way, and linear as hell, but it's a lot of fun. Some of my most memorable quests are from this game like the Severed Hand and Dorn's Deep. I didn't find the story to be half bad either. The music is also very well done. Nice and atmospheric. The music while in Kuldahar seems to stick with me. |

Very good... But after playing NWN it looks more like a NWN mod then a game. I absolutly loved Icewind dale untill NWN came out. It still is amazing but after finishing it 3 times i didn't see 1 single difference with whatever character you take. So that means everyone is doing the same freaking linear story...

Great dungeon crawler.
IWD consists countless battles in Baldurs Gate style. It's more a strategy game with RPG elements as an epic RPG with some fights. |
