Mistico

Hooked once again, 18 years later. I bought the original game in 1998 and totally loved it (played it hundreds of hours). I bought the enhanced edition in 2016 (so I did not encounter all the bugs from the 2012 release) and loved it again (played it hundreds of hours). If you love RPG's, you'll love Baldur's Gate. If you loved it back in 1998, you'll love it a little more, because now it has all the improvements of BG2! And the new Quick Loot feature is priceless. This one is a tried-n-true timeless classic.

I've never played the original board game. In my first game I was a warrior. I used a sword and an axe at the same time. I learned a little magic. I killed a dragon. A wizard turned me into a toad. A druid stole all my stuff. A troll killed everyone of us. Very good game. If you like board games and movies like the Lord of the Rings, there is a good chance you will like this game. An extra tip: When you play against the computer, increase the speed of the AI to spend less time waiting for your turn.

Highly addictive, straightforward game (just like Diablo). Cannot write a long review... Have to go kill some more monsters... Just a dozen more... I promise...
