    Ohh boy, one of my childhood favorites and one of the best RPGs on the PC.

    Great game, you cannot expect Mass Effect series in the good old days. A somewhat linear RPG that involves less amount of exploration and more amount of turn-based combat. A variety of creatures and good boss-fights.

  1. While Septerra Core is certainly not ground breaking, it does possess the potential to convert some console gamers over to the PC. Hardcore CRPG fans however, will most likely be disappointed with the linearity and limited challenge.
  2. If you're not the diehard RPGer who lives for "Bauldur's Gate" ("AD&D is the only RPG!"), or if you ever enjoyed one of the Final Fantasy series (I know some of you Bauldur's Gaters like it. Come on, admit it!), then pick this one up right away. There are seven whole worlds waiting for you.

    SC isn't easy to get into. Its drawbacks hit you immediately. But after that rocky start, the background art, ingeniously devised monsters, simple interface, and clever combat and magic systems make this a tough RPG to toss aside.
