Game Review (written by Jessicadevi) Added on: 12/10/2006
From what I remember, what was fun about this game in the early 90s, was the ability to create the characters - depending on how you look, so changes the reception of the people around you. It is a ginormous world filled with a ridiculous amount of people and you have the ability to join guilds and many other different activities. If I recall correctly, there wasn't much plot; it revolved around the opening. You walk into a pub and there is a letter left for you from your friend Sven - which sets you off on this quest for Valour in this medieval city.
After entering the code from the manual which you cleverly have to look up a page number. It gives you the line number and word number and you have to type it in. A smart way to make sure you don’t misplace that manual, it then lets you create that character and edit different features of the person. You go out into the town after receiving the letter from your friend Sven and wander about, get incredibly lost, talk to tons of different people, buy a house, pick up items, all in search of some thing. There is a large, intriguing castle and endless walls which mark the perimeters of the territory, which is not to suggest that the scape is small. There are houses to walk into and explore everywhere as well as establishments. It is pretty much for the most part a completely functioning town. Everyone goes about their business and tries to stay out of trouble though the character you make always seems to find trouble. I remember trying to find a house again, and wandering around for ages.
Remember that when I was rather young, I kept playing this game over and over again each night. Stuck at the computer screen. However, look at how much I remember! That has to be saying something about my experience of it! There has to be a reason why I remember so much of this game and played it for weeks on end. I loved creating the characters and joining different guilds and trying to find all these different letters from Sven which he left scattered about the town. This game had fun graphics and the concept was interesting and for some reason appealing. I say it is definitely worth a revisiting if your memories of it are fond.
