Not bad, not good

Graphics: 7/10 Story: 4/10 Gameplay: 5/10 ------------------- The Wheel of Time does the same as every other FPS of that time. Different weapons in the form of magic - offensive and defensive spells - are the main thing that one is using. While many of those are not used they give a unique way of playing. The story is very lackluster. It starts somewhat strong but spirals down quickly with an abrupt ending that does not make much sense. Its the weakest point of the game. The graphics for that time are good, based on the Unreal Engine. Some effects are nice like the soulstorm or chain lighning. On the other hand the videos and npcs are clunky and feel unpolished. The same goes for the AI of the npcs: its very weak in terms of pathing and difficulty. All in all the game is worth its time but only once. After that its a forgettable experience and can be put down forever without leaving a "wow!" moment.

A charming game

A really nice game from the Unreal 1 and Unreal Tournament era of the late nineties. Here in a beautiful fantasy environment with attention to detail, without being unnecessarily over-complex. The game is, as is typical for this time, nicely linear, and at the same time entertaining and not too difficult. The action is not neglected either, which, in combination with the protagonist's novel narrative and the charming cutscenes, makes for an interesting mix. At this point a thank you to GOG for patching these games here for new operating systems. It's always fun to browse your platform.

Runs like a dream

Always wanted to try this game but 15 year old me couldn't dream of a pc that could run it. Thought I'd have not much luck running it now days but OMG it runs perfect. Hits me right in the Nostalgia. If you like FPS game from late 90s or Early 00s this is for you.

Is it *really* worth 5 Stars?

Look, I'll be real with you, friend. This game is imperfect. Movement can feel a bit stiff and the AI can be dense in the "charge right at you" kind of way, but if you're willing to play around with spells instead of hoarding them, and want a game that genuinely gives you some cool strategic options in combat, Wheel of Time has you covered. There are things I would change or tweak, but this is nearly a 25 year old game. It ain't happening. So, why should you play it? One word: atmosphere. okay, more words: the soundtrack, the textures, the voice acting, the soundtrack (again! Look it up, it's great), Wheel of Time creates a stunningly immersive world if you're willing to give it a chance. And you should. It is just that charming. I've never read a WoT book or seen the show and while the game does treat you like you already know its world, no big deal! You find out what you need to as you go along, it's wonderful. No extensive data log reading (though you should read your spells), just a living, breathing fantasy world that you need to blast your way through like a one-woman badass. oh, and it has multiplayer. Interesting multiplayer. The "Citadel" (CTF really) mode lets you set traps, enemies and walls. Cast offensive, defensive and status spells. In an FPS! This was 1999 baby, Minecraft and Fortnite weren't even *concepts* yet. Absolutely wild. Again, is WoT flawed? Yes. It can be janky to get videos working (Quicktime patch helps!) without crashes on some systems, and there's so many spells it can be hard to use them all tactically when enemies are breathing down your neck. However, if you like older FPS games, fantasy, or just want a pleasant, "just-right" campaign experience that will make you wonder why you never heard about (or played) this game before, do it. Full price or on sale, it's worth it.
