    For being on a such a portable/small platform like the GBA, it's a great game.
    I played it through a LOT and it was cool to unlock that special class.
    Certainly worth a buy at the time.

    Excellent ! Graphiquement soigné, le jeu est vraiment prenant même si passer la licence en mode Hack’n’slash était un pari osé et que c’est un peu déroutant au début. Au final le plaisir est bien présent. Un must a avoir sur GBA d’autant plus que le genre ce fait rare sur celle-ci. Les fans purs et durs de Baldur’s Gate seront sûrement déçu par ce titre tant le game play diffère mais ilExcellent !

  1. Other than EA’s "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King," there isn’t a finer action RPG on the handheld. There are slight gameplay and graphical issues, sure, but it doesn’t take much persistence to overcome these, and the positives far outweigh the negatives.
  2. With the deep character growth system in place here I could have been content with twice that amount of game time.

    Though the overall adventure is a bit short and the amount of items and weapons isn’t as great as those found within the console version, the Gameboy Advance version is still a highly polished game and is one that action gamers and RPG fans alike will simply eat up.
