A computer game based on Dungeons & Dragons

User Rating: 8.3 | Baldur's Gate PC
Baldurs game is a decent RPG type game where you travel around the world and as you collect more and more items you gain more and more stats as you traverse through the entire game. The main gameplay is quite simple and straight through, there aren't many hard functions with the game itself that a beginning player would have to worry himself or herself over. However during the combat portions of the game a player should also first understand how the entire fighting function works in order to effectively get the most out of each fight. Against the weaker creatures just throwing your characters against a foe will work, however against the boss and the much more stronger foes strategy is essential. Since this game is based off the computer system a good graphics cards and a good computer are mandatory in order to get the most out of this game as a whole. Personally I'm not too interested in the whole dark genre which this game focuses on, but I didn't really buy this game (I got it as a christmas present along with its sequel)
