User Reviews
The game is nice, but it feels very dated. Classes seem diverse and well balanced (for the most part...just don't pick golemancer). The elemental schools of magic tend to decide too much of the game (which isn't bad, but isn't good either). I feel like if the game received a visual polish up and some sfx updates, it could easily pull off 9.5/10 score. Edit: used to play it 15 years ago on newgrounds. Nostalgia factor alone isn't enough to pull me back and the older visuals repel me personally. If that's not an issue for you, then you'll enjoy the game, but as things stand right now, I'd give it 6/10 score.
