Legend of Grimrock

Slightly over rated

There are a bunch of 5 star ratings that seem like just a "me too" reaction to anything shiny. I like the game over all but there are some problems. The good: Graphics are current and well done. The skill trees are nicely varied. Character creation is detailed. Good sound queues. Potion creation system. The Bad: Items are fixed in number and location. No hot keys for throwing things, magic, or potions. Attacks using magic are slow due to the rune selection system. The ugly: Timed puzzles are split second leaving no room for error. This coupled with no hot key for throwing things or the need to find and click wall buttons with the mouse makes level 5 frustrating enough that many will stop playing right there.
