Normally, I don't really have the patience or time to play really long RPGs, but after playing Evil Islands for just a few minutes, I was hooked.

This game is awesome. And the storytelling is brilliant. One of the few games that I walked through several times and had a lot of joy every time I did it.

Best Stealth RPG Game. Even in 2018, you can play, the graphics for those years are just excellent, and the music is enjoyment 10/10

After playing Evil Islands and getting a bitch of a migraine because I stayed up in front of the PC for 48 long hours, I can safely conclude that Nival Interactive has developed one seriously addictive PC game. It can even be hazardous to your health, and it might have serious effects on your social life.

While not quite as big as "Baldur's Gate II," this game is considerably large, totalling about 100 hours of the single-player gameplay.

Evil Islands does not present a very novel gameplay experience...But the excellent polish of the overall product, with particularly strong graphics, music, and artificial intelligence, makes it more than worth a look.

For a game without a particularly compelling plot, pretty addictive and fun to play.

In the end, the thing you remember most isn't the graphics engine, the nifty spell and item construction, or even the awful voice acting; it's the frustration of slogging through a poorly balanced game that substitutes saving and reloading for gameplay.

Evil Islands is one of my favorite game. Incredible atmosphere of fairy tale. Long and really interesting adventure in very unusual places. A hidden RPG "Gem"!

Beautiful world, marvellous climate, great game-play and very interesting story. In my opinion there is no perfect game. This game is almost perfect, I give it 9,8/10 score.

The world presented in this game is climatic and consistent - every of three land where the adventure takes place is different of each other and have unique climat. In the 2001 full 3D graphic was quite new experience for gamers and for 2001 it presented very beautiful. Gameplay is great, I hope there will be continued.
