The most authentic DnD experience in a video game
The Baldur's gate games may have had a better story. Neverwinter Nights may have had better graphics. But for the true DnD fan, no other game offers anything as close to the table top experience as ToEE. Nearly all of the core 3.5 rules, feats, and skills are here, with excellent dungeon design and hours of turn-based tactical gameplay. Temple of Elemental Evil is a continuance of one of Greyhawk's iconic dungeons, originally developed by Gary Gygax himself for the original DnD rule set decades ago. The back story of the Temple is long and diffuse, overarching 3 decades and at least 3 different rule systems, but even those completely unfamiliar with the table top game will find a lot to like here. It is the only CRPG to my knowledge that makes good use of the third edition alignment system, altering the main quest and opening to suit the alignment of your party. There won't be any lawful good Paladins running with chaotic evil Barbarians here. In addition to the main quest, there are dozens of side quests and dungeons to discover and complete, and an excellent combat system that includes many of the tactical maneuvers from the table top game that haven't been implemented in many other video games, including trip, grapple, and rush. This opens up a wealth of turn-based tactical fantasy combat with a high replay value. My only gripes with this game would be the somewhat sparsity of the story, and the relative shortness of the game itself. The level cap only goes to 10, and the final dungeon just seems to come way too quickly. Playing through the table top version of Monte Cook's 3rd edition ToEE campaign lasted for months of several hours a week play; a determined player could probably finish this game in 20 hours or less. However, the excellent level design, turn-based combat, authentic item creation system, replay value, and role-play elements make this game a must-buy for any RPG fan that wants to delve into a complex and well-developed tactical experience.
