Being the chosen one has never been so fun (in the cut scenes)!
This is easily the funniest rpg's iv'e played over the years (story like), the sarcasm and irony is constant. This game is like watching a really good episode of southpark with a gaming theme. Again storylike, but when t... Read Full Review

Uncommon approach and a couple of interesting ideas mixed up with old engine and simplicity - what do we end up with?
The Bard's Tale is the third part of the fantasy saga, which origins date back to 1985. Make no mistake here though - it is a totally stand-alone game with no traces of serious and epic adventures in previous titles. I s... Read Full Review

The best part of the game is the remarks made by the bard. They may be mean, but they are funny and witty. welkl, at least to me. The whole storyline is not bad, well, i'll most probably rate it...7/10. There are 3 endin... Read Full Review
