    The add-in combines a new and intriguing story with plenty of varied gameplay to steal forty or fifty more hours of your life.

    If you go into it expecting a short but focused and enjoyable adventure, there is a good possibility you'll enjoy your visit to Mournhold.

    The way Tribunal is integrated into the main Morrowind game is smooth and fascinating.

    Lovers of Morrowind will love Tribunal, and simply should not go without it. The improved journal alone is worth the price of admission.

    Best suited for high-level characters that like to use every power at their disposal -- and that's where the expansion shines.
  7. GameZone

    The game does open up new areas of the island, and does challenge players. It is graphically strong, and a welcomed addition to the Morrowind realm.

    It's somewhat strange that Tribunal, the first official expansion, is so confining. [Mar 2003, p.96]

    It's as seamless and clever as it could be in a title like this.

    Generally speaking Tribunal is a great expansion pack. It fixes bugs, adds new places to explore, enhances the capabilities of the game, and is very well written and designed.
  11. PC Gameworld

    A reasonable expansion to a great game. Hardcore Morrowind fans will love the new content, but the stale old content should have been refreshed.

    It's ideal for those with high-level Morrowind characters.
  13. GameSpot

    When combined with the original game, Tribunal's features make an excellent role-playing game even better.

    Pick it up if you're looking for another 20 plus hours of reality dissolving entertainment. [Feb 2003, p.68]

    Probably the best game expansion released in 2002. It offers more gameplay than many full-priced games.

    Morrowind may have had enough content to make an expansion pretty redundant, but the tighter focus of the expansion helps create an intensity that wasn't as well sustained in the base game.

    Many of the things that made me love Morrowind so much are simply missing in Tribunal. For your dollar value, this expansion just doesn't add enough to what is already a massive, excellent game.

A very weak and artificial storyline. A main setting mainly full of .......space. Some good quests, some bad ones (the highly nihilistic Gaenor quest was my favourite) but really, this expansion offers nothing new to Morrowind except for a kind of proving ground for high level characters. Bland but just about worth installing.… Full Review »

I noticed the better KI of the fellows. After spending 200 hours in Morrowind I appreciated the lower duration of this addon (btw. it is just an addon, no full game ;) )… Full Review »

The locations were just the opposite compared to the original game, so instead of vast outside planes it's located in more interior based locations, new equipment, lots of new interesting quests (loved the one with the live theater). I know I'm in the minority with this opinion, but I enjoyed Tribunal much more than Bloodmoon. 8/10… Full Review »
