For a refreshing RPG that will satisfy all but the most blowhard dungeon hacks, take a trip to Evil Islands.
Normally, I don't really have the patience or time to play really long RPGs, but after playing Evil Islands for just a few minutes, I was hooked.

After playing Evil Islands and getting a bitch of a migraine because I stayed up in front of the PC for 48 long hours, I can safely conclude that Nival Interactive has developed one seriously addictive PC game. It can even be hazardous to your health, and it might have serious effects on your social life.
While not quite as big as "Baldur's Gate II," this game is considerably large, totalling about 100 hours of the single-player gameplay.
Evil Islands does not present a very novel gameplay experience...But the excellent polish of the overall product, with particularly strong graphics, music, and artificial intelligence, makes it more than worth a look.
In the end, the thing you remember most isn't the graphics engine, the nifty spell and item construction, or even the awful voice acting; it's the frustration of slogging through a poorly balanced game that substitutes saving and reloading for gameplay.
The world presented in this game is climatic and consistent - every of three land where the adventure takes place is different of each other and have unique climat. In the 2001 full 3D graphic was quite new experience for gamers and for 2001 it presented very beautiful. Gameplay is great, I hope there will be continued.
