An excellent and immersing that will stick with you forever.
Don't let the outdated graphics fool you, this game is a classic. Following AD&D second edition rules that are very close to actual table top, the game play is extremely addictive and fun. Don't expect an easy adve... Read Full Review

Are all of you serious?
Ok, I'm starting to assume that the reason I don't like this expansion is because I'm the only one who doesn't like killing and killing and more high level killing. I'm serious guys, what is so fun in killing hundreds an... Read Full Review

A true classic. Open ended exploration, unforgettable characters, and addictive gaming. Fun combat, and true RPG-ing.
Graphics The graphics in this game use the infinity engine, with 800x600 available unlike the lower resolution in BG1. The engine was just a litte dated when it was released, but not bad at all. The reason I rated the... Read Full Review

By far the best expansion pack since LoD!

Best story-driven RPG game!
I still play this game on occation not because of the graphics.. but because of the storyline/gameplay.. The game is what I compare most recent RPGs with and surpasses the intensity of the first Baldur's Gate. The aviala... Read Full Review

It can only be described by one word, and one word only. Epic.
Baldur's Gate II : Shadows of Amn, has no equal. Don't get me wrong, other games from the same world have came close, your Icewind Dales and your Neverwinter Nights', but none have came close to matching the PC-RPG-Ga... Read Full Review

The best RPG ever, highly immersive gameplay, detailed plot-line. Will run on any machine and still look great. Enough.
Anyone remotely interested in Role Playing Games will find the Baldur's Gate saga an epic gaming experience. Highly based on the Dungeon's & Dragon's theme, gamers with little or no D&D experience will still find... Read Full Review
