Druid - Deamons of the mind Company : Sir-Tech Reviewed By : Lonelines |
Well, I had some trouble in classifying this game since it's part Action and
part Quest... but I guess it's more Quest than Action.
Well, there isn't much I can say about this game except: AUGH !!! BARF !!! STAY AWAY !!! This is to date the number one most horrible game I have ever played (and I've played lots of games). The story is horrible, the fighting is terrible, and the control interface sucks. You get no cinematic bonuses (except from one door opening), and.. |

WARNING < WARNING < ENDING SPOILER > WARNING > WARNING You DIE at the end, after all the hell you have gone through (unless you chicken out of the planet with a spaceship, which I had no intention of trying since I threw the game far away) I mean, here I am, the player, shelled out cash for this game (even though a friend loaned it to me for a couple of days), and after going through all those dumb fighting sequences (can we say "find the invisible hotspot" boys and girls ???) and all those stupid puzzles (which aren't that hard but pretty annoying), just to get to 2 options : flee away, or be a hero and save the worlds from the Druids. so naturally I choose to be a hero (all of us vain Quest players actually believe we ARE playing the hero. silly us) we reach the end scenario, confront the Druids, and then have a mass murder/suicide. (can we say "stupid" boys and girls ??) At first I thought I did something wrong, so I checked the walkthrough Nope... just go to the portal it said. So I went to the portal... and died ! Load game, try again. Nope... death. After a while I also noticed that after teleporting, I didn't even control the stupid character anymore, he just automatically goes and blows everyone up (including himself), and for being such a great sport you get to see a GAME OVER - cut scene (which you could also see by dying in the first battle you encounter). And speaking of battles, How the hell do you fight those freaky monsters ??? I click on them, but my character just stands there as he gets bashed. So I start a clicking frenzy all over the screen to find the hotspot where the character would actually react. Unfortunately, the character will die after a short period of being bashed by the monsters. My advice : if you are really going to buy this game and play it, save the game a lot. You'll need it. The creators/designers of this game have just invented a new definition of the word SUCKS !! |

The plot is bad, controlling the character is bad, you get no "rewards" for
being a hero, no cinematic sequences, bad gameplay, extremely stupid ending,
everything you need to create the most horrible game ever. Good sides of the game: At least this is not the only game in the market and you can go buy a game worth your time and efforts, because this one ain't worth a dime. With apologies to I.W. for having get stuck with this game in his place for the rest of all eternity - I hope you will never have to see a game like that again. |
