Magnificent

So far this is the best game of 2013, and I'm almost sure it will stay that way. It has everything that a great RPG should down to a T. The story is very much the classic "save the world from returning Dark Lord" but it's very well told, full of interesting twists and moments both poignant and humorous in good proportion. The characters are also a uniqe bunch, likeable andwell written. The music is very good, not "buy the soundtrack NOW" good, but fits the game an enchances the experience perfectly. The same goes for the graphics, simplistic but fitting the old school nature of the game. You may at first feel they're to primitive, especially if You play a lot of new, good looking games, but after an hour or so You'll find yourself lost in the charm of Driftmoon. The world is full of object You can interact with, secrets to discover, and clever but not too hard environmental puzzles, that never brake the pace of the game. There are only two downsides in my opinion- there are too few skills to choose from when leveling up, and the game is too short, as it took me about 15 hours, if memory serves. Still, those were the most fun 15 hours of playing any game I had in a long time.

A Gem

First of all, as others have already stated, this game is not Diablo 3. It doesn't want to be Diablo 3. If you're looking for lots of combat and state of the art graphics, you'll likely be disappointed. If, on the other hand, you're looking for great writing, interesting characters and fun plot twists, this game is for you. Driftmoon tells the time-honoured tale of "Find the McGuffin and defeat Evil (capital E)", but it does so with lots of witty humour and a loving care for details. Take your time to explore, there's more to this little gem than meets the eye. Most of all, take your time to read - the books and notes you find scattered all over the world may or may not be plot relevant, but they're well written and fun to read. This game is clearly a labour of love, and I recommend it to anyone who enjoys a well told story that doesn't take itself terribly seriously.

Very short, but entertaining

An ok game, very linear, total playtime of about 8-12 hours. At the full price of $15 I wouldn't consider it worth buying, at the current 50% off it's an acceptable price. Community content theoretically adds to purchase value, but currently there is close to none. All in all, an average indie RPG.

Fun breezy adventure game

Personally I don't see the link to Ultima VII but whatever. Maybe its just been too long since I played that game. I'm actually on my second run through of this game as its been long enough ago since I did the first run that everything isn't in the forefront of my memory any more. Sure, the graphics are not perfect, but they're better than a lot I've seen coming out as new games. It's 3D for one thing, and I really love the way they've implemented movement. The controls are easy to remember and you can reassign the key bindings if you want to. I'll take this style of graphics over most any 2D style graphics. I've got another new game that was made totally top down so that all you see is people's hats in a little circle. Guess which style I prefer? (HINT: Not the one where all you can see is the tops of people's heads). Plus, what the heck do you want for $6 full price? Eggs in your evil berry beer? The characters move very naturally and easily with the mouse. The storyline is engaging, doesn't drag, and progresses in a logical fashion. It's easy to play without being braindead. The only gripe I really have about this game is the insistence that the player avatar be MALE. That's just stupid, especially with this sort of game, but it appears to be enforced because they want a heterosexual romance option later in the game (which I DID NOT allow to trigger on the first play through and won't ever, I think game romance is STUPID). There were ways not to end up there but the developers chose the most backward path possible (hetero romance only and main char has to be male). I did not get the whole "OH NOZ XTIANS" thing. Influences like that are cultural more than actually religious. It's sort of like griping that a game from India has references to Hinduism. Not an xtian here either. Recommended. It was enough fun that I'm going again. I'd buy a sequel if it ever were to appear.

Nice, fun

A little game, colourful with simple but good gameplay. Music can get a bit annoying and graphics are not too good, but it is fun until the end.
