1st time player and totally happy
I've become leery of all the 5 star reviews in gog having found most old games are reviewed with those rose colored lenses of past thrills and not based on current date playstyle for the uninitiated, but for this game they are spot on. Never played this before and am totally loving it. I like the slow accrual of spells, gear and levels. I like the different party members and build your team the way you want. I like the crafting and very much enjoy the spell weaving, which at first seemed clumsy. Now I love crafting the spells each hit and not just spamming a spell button. I love the treasure hunts, and puzzle solving tho HATE the timed platformer like puzzles. I admit to having played with a walk thru on hand as its HARD. A few puzzles made me scream and throw my mouse. Good times eh. pros: interesting animations for spells, treasure hunting games and hidden rooms with rewards. Class differentiation makes for replayability. jump scares as beasties surprise you from behind or you fall thru traps. Mind bending puzzles, an engaging back story, in depth spell crafting and unique game mechanic to casting. Great sound ambiance let you know/dread whats around the corner, you get hungry and torches go out leaving you in utter darkness until you learn a spell to cast light. and so on cons: kinda dated graphics, enemies are strangely underpowered the higher levels, many a time I was cast into a dungeon with numerous enemies and still survived despite being cornered. The spell weaving can be cumbersome (ended up being my fav thing but at first was annoying) , timed platformer like puzzles are almost unbeatable leads to major frustration still...a great entertaining game, tempted to play thru again to try out diff group makeup.
