What Gamespot Users have to say about The Temple of Elemental Evil

  • Rating:5.2

    The entire game feels like a stale and lonely slideshow of blatant unimportance, and it practically begs you to hate it.

    I was expecting a Baldur's Gate-esque type adventure when I picked up the Temple of Elemental Evil, and I was sorely disappointed. Every so often a nice morsel of goodness will make itself apparent in the game; but more ... Read Full Review

    Could have been better, but it still has a lot going for it.

    When I first saw that a new D&D title was coming out and it was in old-school Grayhawk, I thought I was in for a great game. Keep in mind, I have played a lot of D&D and I knew all of these rules front and back. One of... Read Full Review

    Decent turned based RPG marred by bugs.

    Toee is a decent game though unfortunately it was crippled by major bugs, not only that patches took about 6 months to come out. This is the only game I had to wait about 8 months to finish because of constant crashings ... Read Full Review

    Greyhawk has none of the style or the substance of its source material.

    ***Note: The difficulty has been classed “just right” since, for the most part, the game provides an experience that is close enough to that descriptor.*** The Temple of Elemental was one of the most promising D&D int... Read Full Review

    This game is not the best one I ever played, but it still have some fun gameplay. Graphics are not bad, but they could have been better than that. I mean, for a game made in 2003, I would expect better graphics than thes... Read Full Review

    Old fashioned hack and slasher. Was disappointed in the lack of overall story. When I played this game with pen and paper I remember the story being the main thing, filled with intrigue, twists and turns. I also remem... Read Full Review

    The upside: TOEE looks beautiful, combat is fun, developing your characters w/ 3rd edition feats and differently aligned party combinations gives ton of replay value, and the storyline -- while a bit abbreviated -- is fa... Read Full Review

    A good game that had the potential to be great but was pushed out the door before it was there.

    By TazmanianD | Review Date: Jan 29, 2004 | PC

    If you are a fan of the CRPG genre, then this game is definitely worth playing if you can look past some of its obvious flaws. You should also be warned that some aspects of this game will really appeal to some and real... Read Full Review

    If you like fun RPG's where you can build your characters up and use some strategy instead of just hack n slash clicking, this is for you. The game doesn't stray from its D&D foundation-- and that's awesome. The combat... Read Full Review

    This game isa very good game --- it has obe major flaw, though --- the turnbased combat... The game combat system is outdated, in my opinion. And it is very hard (for me) to select the small characters on screen in ord... Read Full Review
