Too Broken to bother with

User Rating: 3.5 | The Temple of Elemental Evil PC
By Procrastin | Review Date:
I picked this up in a bargain bin recently and it was almost worth the $5 I spent on it. I was in the mood for some old-school DnD style gaming and that's what this is. It is perhaps a little too-hard core since if you're like me, and you've never actually played the paper and dice version of the game you'll find your self at a loss as to what "feats" to pick and what exactly some spell do. The learning curve is quite steep at first as basically anything can, and will kill you.
I did enjoy the first several hours of game play even though the number of bugs present kept me saving constantly so that I wouldn't lose my progress in the frequent crashes.

That said, the crashes make the game unplayable by the end of the game as it lead to hard lock ups repeatedly on my system to the point where I couldn't even play for more than 5 minutes at a time. There is a modding community which supposedly has fixed a lot of flaws, however even with their fixes I was not able to return my game to a useable state.

Overall it's somewhat fun, but only pick this up if you're willing to risk the bugs.
