    One of the best dungeon romps I've played this year. The scale of the adventure may not be epic but the overall package is pure unadulterated addiction. If you like role-playing games then you'll love FATE.

    If there was ever a game to hook a casual player on the charms of dungeon hacking, or absorb an old vet whose time has become a commodity, FATE is it. [Sept 2005, p.48]

    Fate certainly isn't the most innovative title out there. In fact, it's quite easily labeled as a "Diablo" clone, and inherits its predecessor's endlessly repetitive combat and gameplay. However, this game also somehow manages to stay fun hour after hour.

    This is a Darkstone clone with improved graphics and no weapon durability (I hate weapons degrading). Since I love Darkstone, I was very happy to find this bargain priced gem of a dungeon crawler.… Expand

    While far from "innovative" it is a brilliant implementation of the roguelike genre. Fun, addictive, and well worth the price. Simple, easy to puck up, nearly impossible to put down.… Expand
