Very Good Game – Exiled Kingdoms RPG Review

Very well thought-out and designed. Four stars instead of five only because I’m a lazy adventurer. A lot of thinking and polishing went into this game. However, having been a Diablo-II player for the past ten years, I found EK to be much more challenging; and as it turns out, this was the intent of the author—a game to test stamina, strategy, and resourcefulness. I wanted to heal faster, gain mana faster, level-up faster, grow my character faster, get good equipment and gold faster, and, I guess, play an easier game—all things that are my problems because of expectations based on other experiences. Exiled Kingdoms offers a fantastic RPG with myriad fascinating quests and enemies, loads of great equipment, potions, scrolls and interesting items, and dozens, if not hundreds, of hours of game play. I recommend that new players start in casual mode, save often, go to Wikipedia to learn what characteristics are critical, and be prepared for many difficult challenges until your player is advanced enough to explore with impunity, as finally happened to me when I reached level 15 or 20. A great game for smart, patient adventurers.
