Faithfully follows D&D 3.5 rules and gameplay without a grid based battle map. Truth be told it might be the only D&D game which uses the 3.5 system. I've had so much fun with this game throughout the years and used to own a real copy at a point that I'm still playing, so giving this game anything but a 5/5 would be a crime against myself. If you are reading this without my rose tinted glasses I got to say that the game is alright, the combat is excellent and the story is nothing special. Just like in real D&D you roll up characters and a lot of builds can be made in character creation. The game consists of two towns, one dungeon and a mega dungeon with a few areas outside of these relevant to different quests. With other words do not expect a huge world to explore like boulders gate. Still I recommend the game highly and nowadays it is well worth its money.
