Lands of Lore isn't exactly the greatest choice for an RPG. But underneath the flaws, you have a fairly solid game.
User Rating: 6.5 | Lands of Lore III PC
Lands of Lore 3 has been sitting in my little corner next to my computer unopened for 5 freaken years. And now that I crack and dicide to open it up and play it, I acually realize I wasn't really missing TOO much. The game was made in 1999, that's 8 years ago. The first impressions you might get of it are acually along the lines of ''hey, this game looks kinda fun''. And once you begin your quest, you figure out that you are right, and wrong. But honestly, the game has its good moments, and a lot of its frustrating moments, plus an abundence of flaws. But the first few minutes to an hour are proably more exciting than you might expect. But don't get your hopes up, the system works rather decently, but not great. You might end up a bit muddled by the overall presentation later, and that's where you might start to hate it. But if you get past the flaws, its great fun to slay wart hogs,spiders, demons, etc. with your weapons you find around. You have a lot of stuff to use, and to find. And the game will last you a while if you take the time to fully explore it. Many enimies await you, and its usual of many RPGS to utilize this formula. BUt Lands of Lore 3 does it fairly differently in just one way: IT KINDA MAKES IT NOT WORK AS WELL. Overall Lands of Lore 3 is not exactly the greatest choice for an RPG, but undereath its flaws, you have a fairly solid game.
