Anticlimactic.

This has to be the most horribly produced game from Sierra I've ever played. The storyboard artists and creators must have been off their rocker. The graphics were pretty, the battles were somewhat exciting, but the delivery fell completely short. The combat and stats were horribly unbalanced, to the point where when I played the game the first time, I found it extremely difficult, and the second time I played it, it was a breeze just because I spent time levelling my characters up. The voice acting was mediocre. The story sounds promising in the beginning, especially with this series' reputation, but it finds itself to be completely anticlimactic in the end. So if you like pretty graphics and good music only in a game, pick this one up perhaps. But I'd rather just throw Lord of the Rings in my DVD player, because this is a sore excuse for a game or a story.

NOT HAPPY

Wish I could write a review on Return to Krondor.But thats not what you sent me. The book Krondor the Betrayal that you sent me is green in color and looks good on my shelf. The video game in the back of the book says it has Return to Krondor and Betrayal at Krondor on it.But it doesn't. You have my money and I have your JUNK.
Thank You
Jim

good game, great battles, but ends too quick. Its funner taking your time and finding fights in the first 3 chapters and getting better and getting better gear. Dissapoining ending, last boss was way easier than he should have been. I enjoyed it for 15 bucks

Fun game, dissaponiting ending

I got this game from a freind for free awhile back. The graphics are pritty good but the character movements are EXTREMELY slow. The characters walk all the time. The battles are pritty lame too because all of the movements are slow. In my opinion its not even worth getting for free, which is how I got it.

Great Game

I have played this game plenty of times and I thought that it was a great game. Yes, at times it seems a little glitchy but it has just to good of a story line and it has so many good weapons that you can recieve. This is just one of the best games that I have ever played!

Verrry interesting-

My son introduced this game to me and I thank him! My daughter has also played this game. It is the type of game that holds your interest. My grandsons like to help when I run into a particularly frustrating problem.(They are 7 & 8.) So you see "kids" of all ages can enjoy this game.
I would have given this 5 stars (actually, I would give it 4 1/2), but I found it frustrating at times. Also, the graffics could be a little better. All in all, we all enjoy this game very much.
I hope anyone who enjoys RPG, gives it a chance.
Thank you!

Poorly executed

To start, I had to be on line w/ Sierra tech support for about an hour before giving up in desperation and sending them an e-mail before this game would work. Sierra tech support is the most evil thing in the universe. But I digress. This game was awkward. The plot seemed weird and random, so that if you did one wrong thing you lost all your stuff and got in near-impossible fights. Also, the graphics were stiff and weird. For example, in combat, if you miss someone, your sword still plunges straight through the enemy. Overall, it lacks stability and quality.

Good Game But the Books Are Definitly Better

In return to krondor there are many things you can do besides the main goal. There are many side tasks that you can do. I've played the game twice and I have had it for a few years now but it never gets borin to play. There is always something new to discover like a new item or weapon. Though the fight scenes are sometimes a little glitchy the graphics are good. But I recomend reading the series of books by Raymond Feist you will be a little more enlitened to some of the things that take place and understand the characters such as Jimmy The Hand.

The books are better

Having read the books and enjoyed them thoroughly, I bought the game.

At 25 I'm an avid gamer (I've been gaming since games were invented for the 386). I was disappointed. The graphics are ok but the game play is not the greatest. Fight scenes are awkward and there are too many items to use, that are not very useful.

There were just too many little things that annoyed me about this game, one of them being that there's no save-anywhere feature, you have to start at the beginning of the chapter.

The story is good, but it's like Return to Krondor for Dummies. Stick with reading the books, you'll probably be disappointed with the game.
