With a novel, large and intricate set of societies, coupled with excellent graphics and sound, Gothic becomes one of the most immersive and believable single-play adventure/RPGs ever.

One of the best role-playing games of 2001. With just a few tweaks, Piranha Bytes could have given us one of the best role-playing games of all time.

The 3D engine looks unbelievably good! The surroundings are impeccable, and bear a surreal and depressive atmosphere. All the objects and buildings look just as great.

This title is a truly epic quest with excellent replayability. This game got under my skin so bad that I remember getting out of bed at 2:00am and going downstairs to play it.

Decent graphics and a well-developed storyline. It also has a great amount of replayability, as each time through the game could yield different experiences with different choices.

The dark and mature theme gave this game a distinctive feel and the graphics take the player in deep within the prison world.

While it does last (and there is plenty of replay value), it will provide most gamers with an experience even more enjoyable than kicking back and smoking a pound of grade A swampweed.

The environment, the quests, and the huge world you're in overcomes some of the technical issues with the game.

Elaborate story, dialogue, and characterization draw you into one of the most believable role-playing game worlds ever created.

There are some deficiencies in this game – most notably, how to equip a weapon without jumping through all the hoops the game has to offer.
