  • Nostalgic and fun hack-and-slash game with a solid story set in the Forgotten Realms universe, featuring well-known voice actors including Patrick Stewart and Michael Clarke Duncan.
  • Unique gameplay mechanic allowing switching between three distinct characters each with different abilities, providing variety and strategic options in combat.
  • Atmospheric soundtrack and voice acting add to the immersive experience; the game remains an enjoyable old-school action RPG especially for fans of early 2000s titles.
  • The current port is plagued with frequent crashes, performance locked at 30 FPS, poor camera control, and unrefined controls making gameplay frustrating and difficult.
  • Repetitive enemy encounters with swarm-heavy combat and long, tedious boss fights coupled with weak AI and slow or unhelpful computer-controlled allies.
  • Short game length and lack of meaningful progression or challenge, with minimal quality of life improvements and no major updates beyond basic bug fixes for this re-release.
  • story

    The story offers an old-school, D&D-inspired experience with atmospheric worldbuilding and straightforward delivery, appealing especially to fans of classic tabletop RPGs. While it is generally enjoyable and well-written, many find the missions repetitive and short, with some frustration due to lack of cutscene skipping and uneven difficulty. Overall, the story’s charm fades around the midpoint but remains a highlight for those appreciating nostalgic, simple narratives.

    • “The game’s story was written by authors connected to Dungeons & Dragons, and you can feel the tabletop RPG influence in its worldbuilding and characters.”
    • “Everything here works beautifully — the sound, the visuals, the story, the atmosphere.”
    • “This game offers you some nice fights, a good progression and level system, nice levels, a very solid story and a godlike soundtrack.”
    • “Every single mission is basically just repeating the same thing a hundred times until you win.”
    • “The mediocre story is cute, but it's not worth the frustration of starting over with no way to skip any of the cutscenes.”
    • “The story treats you as an afterthought.”
  • gameplay

    The gameplay is a chaotic and old-school beat 'em up with simple but sometimes frustrating mechanics, including lengthy boss fights and problematic combat controls, especially on mouse and keyboard. While some find it tiresome due to repetitive mission design and clunky camera angles, others appreciate its unique flavor and consistent enjoyability despite its dated mechanics.

    • “Moment to moment gameplay is a chaotic beat 'em up, with your party of misfits up against a variety of fantasy monsters.”
    • “The gameplay is light but carries its own unique flavor, and even now it’s just as enjoyable as it was back then.”
    • “Gameplay that stays fresh from start to finish.”
    • “I was in the mood for an old school action game with unrefined mechanics and campy story, but around mission 3 everything started to become one example after another of "I never wish to play that mission again."”
    • “Bosses that heal between forced phases, so unless you really, really love the "you did 1/5 of my health, I will now fly away, heal that up, and then come down so you can do another 1/5 of my health for 10 minutes" type of gameplay... extremely tiresome enemies that can always block you but can always break your blocks.”
    • “The gameplay is terrible too; enemies have grab moves that come out way too fast and will chunk a third of your HP, among other issues.”
  • music

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The game's music is widely praised as epic and memorable, with a standout soundtrack that enhances the experience and evokes strong nostalgic vibes. While some note inconsistencies in how the music integrates with gameplay, overall, the score is considered a major highlight, supported by solid voice acting from notable talent.

    • “The OST alone is a masterpiece!”
    • “This game offers you some nice fights, a good progression and level system (but still a bit easy to get the best gear in a small amount of time), nice levels, a very solid story and a godlike soundtrack (Battle at Mithrill Hall lives rent free in my head since the PS2 release, hands down).”
    • “But I remember this game, liking it as a kid and it always gave me Lord of the Rings vibes, like how one remembers the old Two Towers game and Return of the King, and this game's music is just epic.”
    • “The music is either overpowering the action or not there at all; it's really weird, and nothing stands out.”
  • graphics

    The graphics are retro and somewhat limited by the era and console capabilities, featuring simpler effects and less detailed visuals, but they remain sharp, solid, and free of artifacts in the re-release. While not modernized, the visuals effectively support the game's atmosphere and nostalgic appeal.

    • “Good graphics for the time.”
    • “The graphics are obviously retro by now, but look decent; in this re-release they are quite solid — sharp and without artifacts.”
    • “Everything here works beautifully — the sound, the visuals, the story, the atmosphere.”
    • “The graphical effects for things like magic spells or fire are not as fancy as they could be, though that might be a technical limitation given the time and the consoles they were working with.”
    • “If you can live with game design that decided 'we need more goons' at every opportunity, an art style that decided a 'robe of scintillating colors' was plain white, that slashing someone with a sword made a 'whack' sound, and can get some enjoyment out of seeing specific Dungeons and Dragons stuff and going 'hey!'”
    • “The graphics are obviously retro by now, but look decent in this re-release, quite solid—sharp and without artifacts.”
