Stonekeep

waited 4 years for gog.com to port this to mac. thank you for finally supporting mac. my only request from here would be to add support for opera. classic western RPG. this and might and magic world of xeen were probably the best 2 RPGs i've played ever on PC. really appreciate the port to mac. please keep the mac support up. and if possible add support for opera.

I bought this new back some 16 years ago. I had been playing games for years. This game was wonderful. I was addicted to this game. I played whenever I had a free minute. After I had finished I loaned it to a friend because it was so enjoyable. I had to spread the word. Of course I never got it back. I actually tried to find it a few years back but had no luck. I loved this game so much that I am going to buy it this time!

Stonekeep was ahead of its time and remains a great game to play. You definitely need the guide to get the full experience, but it is well worth the purchase!

I wanted to like this game when it first came out; I really did. It was being done by one of my favorite game creators, the backstory was very detailed, the intro movie was terrific, and the game started out pretty well. After playing it for ten hours or so, though, what I realized was that the game just wasn't that much fun. Frankly, it was a bit tedious and repetitive. And it didn't help that the movement wasn't the free-flowing movement I had come to expect from fully 3D games but was still the one-square-at-time movement from earlier technology, and constrained so you could only look and move at 90-degree angles. The monster AI also suffered because they could not come out of their rooms to attack you. You could stand just outside the doorway and shoot at them until they died, all in perfect safety. I love computer RPGs and have been playing them since I first got hooked on the original Bard's Tale game but I never bothered to finish Stonekeep.

I played this back when it was a brand new game, It came with an over sized box with a 3D transfer on the front of the box (same as the main picture for the game above), the contense included the game(CD), the manual and a aprox 150 page book which was basically the story your journey takes you on though the halls of Stonekeep. I might even still have it lying about. I played the game, and then read the book. Really enjoyed this from start to finish and was impressed with the actual actors ingame (well it was 1995). **recommend if you like eye of the beholder games**
