Great fun even without four players!

This game completely took over my entire week. I wasn't sure what to expect as I haven't played some of the more modern and popular action rpgs of this style, but fighting hordes of monsters while navigating maze-like levels and looking for secrets is every bit as fun as it sounds!

This game completely took over my entire week. I wasn't sure what to expect as I haven't played some of the more modern and popular action rpgs of this style, but fighting hordes of monsters while navigating maze-like levels and looking for secrets is every bit as fun as it sounds!

I played the N64 version as the blue wizard and finished off the final Skorne fight around level 82 on normal difficulty. The only times I really needed to grind were when I lost a good bit of health and wanted to get it back without paying gold. The gameplay is addicting, and while the graphics and audio do show their age on this version, they don't detract much from the overall experience.

Worth trying out if you're an N64 junkie or into action rpgs!

They had two arcade cabinets: Virtua Cop and this. One day, we decided we were going to see this game out to its end no matter how …

This is an unapologetically transparent quarter-muncher if I've ever seen it. When I was a kid, there was this seedy laundromat in my hometown where my friends and I used to hang out. They had two arcade cabinets: Virtua Cop and this. One day, we decided we were going to see this game out to its end no matter how many quarters it took and that's exactly what we did. I wish I knew what our final tab was but at the time it felt absolutely ludicrous. But I would be lying if I said I didn't immensely enjoy hammering the attack button until my wrist hurt as we battled wave after wave of goblins, screaming and laughing the entire time. Sometimes it's the most painfully simple experiences that are the most memorable.
