I'd like to add my vote to Evil Islands too. I really liked the game from beginning to end.

Hints:
- When upgrading skills, upgrad the most expensive ones first; (almost) all others double in cost, so best double the cost of the cheapest ones.
- Add partymembers, strip them clean and dump them! They can't be taken with you between lvls (islands) and u can manage without them (and gain more xp).

But!
- Yes, Zak is a wuss
- The ending is SOO stupid:
SPOILER!!














1) right before the final battle, u can buy the best equipment available, so there goes you equipment that u saved and worked for so hard 2) You'' think: "Was that it?" I know I did...
But it's worth the time

too bad Nival doesn't have an advertising budget like Sierra or Microsoft. EI is probably the best RPG few people have ever heard of.

Well, maybe this will change in the nearest future - because of Etherlords. I heard it was quite an excellent game.

Etherlords was pretty, but much thinner in gameplay and story than EI. Technically, Etherlords is a masterpiece, but wholly uninspiring.

I really liked this little game, although I never finished it for some reason. Maybe it was too hard? Anyhow, the game would be sooo much better if the main character wasn't such a WUSS. He irritates me.
