Dragonsphere

This game was not for me. Super boring and short. You don't use most of the stuff collected. I did get 245 out of 250 points. Rank of Noble, if only I had gotten that last 5 points. I wanted so much to like it, but its just to lackluster of a game for me.

I missed this game when it originally came out, so thankyou GOG for offering this game for free! :) Dragonsphere is an enjoyable point & click adventure set in a fantasy/medieval setting. The story seems like a standard "fight the evil person & save the kingdom" plot at first but gets more complex than that later on. Most puzzles are logical (or can be solved via trial and error) The graphics are good for the time, the voice acting, while not brilliant, is still passable, and the music is good and adds to the overall charm If you enjoy classic point and click adventures, then Dragonsphere is well worth a try :)

Honestly, I can think of a lot better point and click titles then this one, but that does not make it a bad game. It makes it a very average one and a product of it’s time. When I picked it up, Gog.com was offering it as a freebie to everyone who made an account, and as such, it wasn’t half bad. Not sure I recommend it to spend your cash on though.. at least not instead of other games you could spend a couple bucks on that site to get.

The story and the controls are ok. It's not a bad game but commit typical sins of 90's point&clicks. There are a lot of thing just can be figured out by try and error. There are some guessing and pixel hunting. If you miss an key item you need to re-explore every single location you have access.

I'm part of the younger crowd of gamers (started with Playstation 1) and these types of point and click adventures were way before my time. I had my speculations if the game's age would hold up. Dragonsphere holds up and exceeded my expectations. What starts off as a simple "kill the evil wizard, save the kingdom" quest evolves into a great narrative with numerous memorable characters. In terms of gameplay, some of the challenges proved quite difficult, but also fair. This is not a game for people looking for a quick and painless experience. There were times where I was left completely clueless, only finding my way through luck and a little extra common sense. The second part of the game moved rather quickly in comparison to the first half, but that may just be because I figured out how to go about solving the puzzles as I logged more and more game time. This game will not disappoint. Highly recommended!
